    Bugger shame really seems like a good idea, perhaps a bit more R&D needed, or a bigger company to take it on.
    Its not the destination that is important its the journey.

    ~$300

    i enquired about them with the NZ people a while ago, got no answer.

    its basically 300 bucks to save you from looking down for a bit, and even then you'd have to look up to see it anyway, and focus (i dunno about you guys but i tend to keep my focal point somewhere around +20m infront

    Apart from when you see constable plod (and it's too late then anyway), how often do you look at your speedo anyway? Sort of looks like someone said "can we make it?" without asking "will anyone use it?".

    Are any of you familiar with this company? John.
    I know he was a KB member at one point, not sure if he currently is, did use the 4u2c, but I think he changed?

    Met him once when he came to look at a bike I was selling, but didn't deal any further (nice gadget if it works, but just don't see the $$$ adding up for the features).

    It's more tongue in cheek really... especially given I used to smell like bacon myself, but my expensive tastes got the better of me.

    If it could be set up to work with a radar detector then those would be outstanding.
    Those who insist on perfect safety, don't have the balls to live in the real world.

    I'd like to try one... I've been waiting for the MC3 for what seems like forever though. I'm prepared to front up for 5 clips, 1 unit, and 3 transmitters any time they feel like selling them.

    I think they're an infinite focus, so so long as you're looking down the road, you can see it.

    MC2 has that iirc. I'd probably just hook those bits up to my indicators... never leave them on again
