Honda redesigned the left switch housing on the handlebars of their street motorcycles beginning about 2014. They placed the horn button above the turn signal switch. This is completely opposite of what is standard across multiple brands and countless millions of street bikes such as the 2012 Yamaha which I also own. The horn button is in an awkward location and counterintuitive. One must completely relax their grip and reach up with their thumb to "find" the switch. In such a situation where reaction time is vital, like warning a car about to change lanes dangerously, the moment lost trying to "find" the horn button on my 2018 Honda NC750X could be fatal. This has nearly happened more than a few times since I purchased the bike in April of 2019, including today, 2/27/22.
