Hei Hei bb thread question

Hi there. I have a Kona Heihei ti frame that I've been riding for @ 14 - 15yrs. It's been a while since I changed the bottom bracket and I've clean forgotten in what direction the left hand bottom bracket thread loosens. I know it's a 50/50 but I'd appreciate someone who knows telling me to save a little time and effort! Thanks in advance for any help.
 
Hi,

Right cup (driveside) has left-hand thread (special), unscrew clockwise
Left cup (non-driveside) has right-hand thread (standard), unscrew anti-clockwise.

Hope that helps,
All the best,
 
as above.
left side as you would expect to unscrew something
right side as you would expect to tighten something will loosen it :D
