Not too fussed with a short circut with this on. Not a bad idea but would you ride with one of these lids? http://www.motorcyclecity.com/hatlite.htm
Which reminds me I must see if I can find training wheels for motor cycles :killingme :killingme :killingme

No. There is also a reflective band doohickey thing called a "Halo", if I recall correctly, which you stick around your helmet. Not a bad idea, as no batteries are required, but I wouldn't wear one of those either. Nor would I wear one of those 'dayglo' (or is that "gaydough"?) vests with reflective stripes on.
Incidently, there's a guy who lives in Northcote who wears one of those vests, but rides like a crazy mofo. So is he really safety-conscious, or what?

Maybe the guy in Northcote wears the dayglo vest so they can locate his prostrate form on the side of the road if he rides like a maniac?

i were a day glow jacket, around town on the bike, and ride a little bit crazy around town, but jacket i didn't pay for work did, and easyer than trying to put a bag off/on leather jacket with tons of armour

it's a wonder the MOT hasn't made them compulsory already :mad: , I for one think they would be a bloody nightmare, I put flurotape on the back my daughters helmet when she first got a scooter, just wanted to make sure she was seen, Pete wears the helmet now and the flurotape is still there, a lot of the dririder pants and jackets have fluoro tape along the seams and that's as far as I'd be prepared to go I guess. Given the amount of movement the average helmet has to endure I'd imagine the lights would play up constantly.
