Default What bike gadget do you crave?

How about a widget that mounts somewhere on the bike, which tells you your max lean angle attained after a ride? Could be good for bragging in the pub, and just monitoring your cornering improvement. (i suppose knee sliders are the ultimate give away)

Perhaps some sort of safety device? Tyre pressure sensor or tyre temperature detector. I think BMW already have tyre pressure sensors though so thats not unique.

Was just about to say 'tis what sliders are for. Although I seem to be wearing out my leathers around the knees too.

I would like t have sliders that shower different coloured sparks, like blue, green or red. That would be awesome!

none of them are unique, you can buy any of what you have just mentioned.

the cloaking device comes standard on all bikes,
it seems to work best on BMW car drivers, and 4x4 driver.

the forcefield is already in existance, its known as the BMW car.

I want an adjustable gain throttle pot, so I can set the throttle response however I want.
