I know these things exist, but until the other day I did not have a formed opinion, I do now.

These things are dangerous and annoying. I was in my cage with a Harley behind me. He had a headlight that flashed constantly in my mirrors, I found it extremely distracting and agitating. I was stunned at my feelings and how bothered I was by this thing. After about 10 minutes I actually pulled over to get away from this guy.

No way I would ever have this on my bike. Yes one is noticed, but for me anyway, I had great difficulty keeping my eyes from drawing back to the constant flashing. this has got to be more unsafe than traditional lights.

Again, just my opinion!

I agree with you 100% ...

 

I couldn't agree more. Flashing headlights are for emergency vehicles, not motorcycles. They should be illegal. I actually stopped and pulled off the road one day because one of these idiots with the flashing headlight was coming at me, I thought it was an emergency vehicle because I saw him from a distance of over a mile on a 2 lane highway. I was pissed when he got closer and it was a motorcycle.

 

Agree 100%.

 

I think they suck! They are very distracting....

 

I saw a fella coming at me on a bike and thought he was flashing me to slow down ..like their may have been a cop with radar setup.

 

I hear of guys with them getting tickets but I don't know that for sure... rumors and propaganda...

 

Anything flashing should be reserved for emergency equipment... now tail lights thats a different story....

 

I might suggest flashing is ok for beautiful women also...just my HO.


Seriously...oh wait, i was serious.... um...Flashing light = short in wiring.

 

I don't mind flashing women... unless their high beams are on... hehe! Some could lose an eye!
