| That's just what bikes need.... more crap to look at and annoy the driver. It would seem to me that attention should be on the road not more electronic stuff. |

Fortunately, I don't see that happening in North America anytime soon. Our States are still squabbling with the government over 30yr. old helmet laws! :-0 |
