For all of you who need to ride your motorcycle regularly at night, you know the problem.... motorcycles only have one light in the back, and therefore we're not that easy to be seen.
Since there's not much space horizontally to place lights, the only alternative is vertical.
Helmet manufacturer HJC  have a nifty and inexpensive gadget that does exactly that.
Called the HJC Windlight LED Helmet Light, it's a small gizmo that you glue on top of your helmet (any manufacturer, it doesn't have to be HJC). When you start riding your motorcycle, above 40 kph, the wind blows through the Windlight, and powers powerful LED lights. In fact, the faster you go, the more light it emits. There's very little wind drag, since the unit is aerodynamic.
This way you are seen by cagers, since the light will be at the height of their eyes. Not bad....
Price: Around US$27.00
