Lens shields
« on: 14 November 2012, 04:38:11 pm »
I'm thinking of fitting some yellow lens shields. Does anybody have any recommendations of a good make of shield? I'm after yellow to make me stand out whilst filtering on the motorway.


Cheers,   Mickey.

Whoa there partner!
Just what makes you think yhe average car driver will pay any more attention to a set of yellow lights.
Most of them can't see a two tone yellow/blue car with hid blue strobes going and a 120dB siren blaring away.
There is no such thing as risk compensation these days. There are so many distractions in a car you don't expect them to be paying attention to the road.
Ride like they're all trying to kill you and THEN you might be ok!
Get the black then perhaps cagers will think how's he supposed to see at night
The problem with socialism is that sooner or later you run out of other people's money!
