Several of my motorcycle friends swap sides for the brake levers so it matches braking on a motorcycle (front brake is on the right side). Easy enough change to make. Doesn't matter how it came from the factory.

If I were you, I would just clean it up and flip it. For a modern donor, I would aim for higher grade parts than SORA, and you could make a nice profit on this bike based on what you paid for it.
