What do you think about this cool hazard light system? I think it's only produced in India at the moment.

On the video, you can go straight to 0:55 to see what it's about.

I think it would be great when you are filtering through traffic! Making sure everyone sees you.. Pretty sure it's illegal to use one like that here though, there must be a law that defines the exact tempo of indicators / hazard lights, but staying alive is more important

If this was sold for a reasonable price, would you buy one?

Does it come with a mirrored ball and vintage disco soundtrack as part of the "kit"?

If it does - I'm in!

Just buy a 1290

It has a hazard button that flashes both turn signals simultaneously.

The problem for me is that the lights are out of sink with the music so that's a deal breaker for me..

I don't think I've ever used my hazards on any motorcycle I've owned, actually broke down once on my 2008 Super Duke but it was in the boonies so I hid the bike in the bushes and walked back to civilization...didn't want to draw attention to the thing, two thugs in a truck would of had a free bike. Maybe if I entered the 1290 into a parade that might work out!

I'm a bit sick now and have spew in my mouth...
I better remove that memory by killing the appropriate brain cells with 2 L of vodka.

Hey guys.. it wasn't meant for disco lights

But for safety. I once nearly crashed when I was filtering through a traffic jam on the motorway, because some girl just suddenly switched to the left lane without using her indicators.. I bet she would have seen me if I had those hazard lights on, that resemble those of an emergency vehicle.

I also noticed quite a big difference after switching Xenon HID lights on my previous 690 SM. When cars see something unusual in their mirros, a different colour, something flashing, they are more likely to have a look.
