Title: Bar orientation help needed please
Post by: 556ALPHA on December 14, 2015, 12:54:03 PM
Hello,
I am putting the original bars back on and did not mark the sticks (bar portion) left and right.  One has a T stamped and the other has an S. Can anyone refer me to which is the left and right?  Thanks in advance.

Appears T goes on left. Will update for future use.

And here I was thinking this involved alcohol.   I'm quite disappointed.

I was thinking it may have been one o' dem' new fangled trangender questions about a particular drinking establishment.

You guys are nuts :).  You would think a L and R would have been used but no, as I stated above S is left, T is right.  I guessed and the locating pins were in the correct orientation.

S for signal side and T for throttle side?

Can't possible be, that makes too much sense.

Not really sure that R and L mean much in Japan or Japanese. Not sure what T and S mean in Japanese either.

Then again, as we know their translators are not the best, perhaps T and S is what they thought R and L were.... ?

"T" = Throttle?
