I've seen a few riders with these now, and just wondered what other people's take is on them.



Hi-vis is always a good idea if you're trying to mitigate somewhat the occurrences of dimwit drivers missing you approaching, but this design is clearly to imitate a Police Motorcyclist.
I'm not so sure about it, especially since the rider's that I have seen were vigilante types on tourer type bikes, glaring in people's windows when passing if the driver happened to have a lapse in judgement at a junction. That comes across as intimidating but I suppose on the flip side it might make the driver think harder next time, after their ar$e stopped clenching once realising it wasn't the Police.

Come on, flame me!
