What with bluetooth technology, it's only a matter of time before we get brake lights on the back of the helmet.
Police could have a flashing blue light on theirs! 
They already have helmets with lenses etc so you can see behind you while looking forwards.

I wonder if this thing would make you dizzy until you get used to the spinning

I understand you can find stuff like this, In the Buck Rogers catalog.
The percentage you're paying is too high-priced
While you're living beyond all your means
And the man in the suit has just bought a new car
From the profit he's made on your dreams

HEY! You could paint a couple of lines, spiralling out from the centre to the edge and freak out oncoming drivers - that is, until you crash after spacing yourself out, I suppose ....  I didn't really think that one through, did I?

Better would be to mount little reflecters on it.
I wonder if they have done any real testing on thie thing.
What if it breaks loose and lops the head off the guy behind you?

I don't know, Rod! Lookin' at that picture of the riders at night with those lights on their helmets...I'm thinking that the red ones might make some cagers freak! Kind'a looks like ol' Arnold in one of those Terminator movies would be comin' at 'em...wouldn't ya say?!

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Hey Erwin....I hear Ron Popeil wears one o' those things every time he rides his Suzuki Burgman scooter and the heavens open up. Seems to work for HIM!
