As soon as we get into manuals for bikes you have to realize that there have been 2 or 3 translations from different languages to get to the English language and we get some very disturbing results. The British and Australians have the same language as most North Americans and we still wind up confused with entirely different meanings or words being tossed about. An old Japanese manual for a bike advised riders to Tootle their horn to warn pedestrians. Huh ? Login or Register to Remove Ads |
