Flashing rear brake light?

[sky56]

So living in Chicago people are never aware of riders (and I'll agree it happens everywhere). Has anyone installed one of those brake light modules on their buells or other bikes for that matter? Been thinking about getting one considering the human eye is attracted to flashing light 8x quicker than a still light (lets not argue on actual stats please). I know some will say it doesn't matter because a distracted driver is a distracted driver. Just wondering if anyone has installed one and how they've liked it. Thanks guys and gals. Ride safe this year.

Had one on my old ZR7S and it was easy to install and worked well.

I've sold a good amount of flashers with my tail lights.

$20 with any tail light purchase. ( I do not have them listed on the site, but they are Rear-Alert brand.

Definitely an eye catcher.

I have this one installed on mine: vizi-tec.

What ever one you go for, its a real eye catcher and really helps you be seen in a sea of lights.

I have the manual version, I have to squeeze the lever a few times before holding it to come to a stop for it to work.

Haha, me too. It's so habitual for me now I don't even think about it anymore.

Check out Hyper-Lites. It is an additional LED flasher that you tie into your existing tail light and mount to your rear plates. It is very bright and can be set up several different ways. I had one on my last bike and have been meaning to add it to my current bike. On my last bike, it still worked even when my tail light bulb burnt out, so I really like the redundancy. I had the one that flashed for a second then went to solid on. I was impressively bright. I later added a separate set of replacement blinkers.
