Default Motorbike Safety Camera Detectors

Hey!

I have got a Road Angel Professional Connected fitted in my car which I LOVE and would never drive without!!

Is there something that is similar for the motorbike?

I believe the road angel is much the same as the inforad as in it works from GPS and a database, if so then the inforad M1 is what you want.

Cheers Mark.

Cool, am I right in thinking the inforad is just a flashing red led?

pretty much, although it's actually three, green = no hazard/ red = black spot & flashing green&red either mobile spot or user defined POI, also has a rather nice data logger you can download your route from.

lol, See I plan on using my tomtom from car on bike in Tank Bag or iPhone Tomtom but I don't think either are as good as my Road Angel with all the cameras etc...

I like the look of the InfoRad M1. £39.99 is a good price too!

I'm too easily influenced! I've bought one! Thats a Inforad M1.

I'm interested to know though, can you cut their LED off and fit two LEDs of your own??

Yes you could if you wanted. In fact the green LED is an annoyance.
I built a timed siren triggered from the red led on mine too
