In the manufacturing process for 2 years+ it finally came. Another layer of visibility for us. Now all I need is a motorcycle to go with it.

Ha, what passengers? My riding time is for me, not playing taxi. But, I realize, many do carry them. All OK

I have been seeing that.
If I am correct it lights with break, right.
If that,s right it couldn’t hurt you having one
next time you cross a bridge.

I never ride with a passenger, the whole point of riding is getting away from them. Anyway, for those of you who may not now I was smashed from behind while I was stopped on the Verrazano bridge in NYC. My F6B was totaled, unfortunately for the people that hit me I had outfitted my bike with the INNOVV front/rear camera system. So the lady that hit me first had to go back and change the police report where she stated "He cut in front of me at the last minute" or else her fat, lying ass would be arrested for falsifying a police report. As you can see in the video I stayed in one lane the whole time. The INNOVV system notes speed, date, time and GPS location right on the screen. This brake light is at eye level and has sensors that detect when you stop where it brightens just like a stop light. Another level of visibility is never a bad thing.

In case I get hit again it'll help the NYPD divers locate me on the bottom, it's waterproof, just look for the light fellas

Hope you can get another F6, and join us in Franklin, at the Rally. Any bike will do.

Thanks jm, the case isn't done yet but even after 2 surgeries, shoulder and knee, from the accident I cannot wait to ride again. GEICO let me take off the Helibars, MP3 rack, Baggershield w/ the MRA-X Screen and Russell Day Long so it'll only be a "B", wouldn't settle for anything else.

How much weight does it add to the helmet?

Like Charlie Sheen says about prostitutes “ I don’t pay them for sex. I pay them to leave.” Solitude

Sorry to hear about your wreck, taxfree4. I'm glad to hear you are on the mend, sir. Good thing you had that video to refute the driver's claim.

Thanks for the review on the Brake Free. I've seen kickstarter-type info going around for a while on that. Glad to hear it seems to be shipping and functional.

Thank you rd, yes this project was 2+ years in the making. I'm actually using it in the rear window of my car for now and it works flawlessly (Had my girl follow me while braking). I cannot stress enough the importance of a front/rear camera system on the bike. My lawyer said he wouldn't have even taken the case if I didn't have the video.
