They wouldn't hear the loud pipes either, but the certainly have more chance of seeing bright lights than seeing a bike with no lights.......


I have LED headlight bulb and two 10watt LED auxiliary spotlights, nobody has pulled out on me since I fitted them 4 years ago.

I also fitted blue LED in parallel with front direction indicators and mounted them on instrument pinnacle - I can see them in peripheral vision in sunlight ( never ride at night anyway ) the penalty for leaving an indicator on when riding is far worse on a bike than in a car, and that silly little green indicator that bike makers fit is a joke.
