Reply to comment by sluggo5622 in TIL bicycle brakes in the UK are reversed from the US and Europe by UlisKromwell

That’s what I wanted to know.. I understand RHD vs LHD cars in those regions but motorcycles have their brakes (both foot and hand) brake on the right side of the bike, and their clutch and gear shifter on the left.

Some older (like '70s and earlier) bikes from Europe vary on that, and kickstarter positions vary as well. But I agree that every new bike I've seen this century has that setup.

Do they ever vary front lever always being front brake and the back brake is the foot?

Not to my knowledge, but who knows about some odd motorbikes?
