All the bikes I have owned (Mostly built up myself) have been left hand front brake. It gives a smoother cable run, at least on cable brakes. I have no problem swapping between motorcycle and bicycle.
While UK regs do state that all cycles must have the front brake on the right (But only at at the point of sale) most bikes are supplied without pedals and are not classed as a complete machine so brakes position and things like mandatory reflectors are not covered.
