Let them know what you think. I want it ASAP. I've seen it in cars. I want it for my bike. http://bit.ly/6AWX4N FLIR is looking for input from riders about the potential for night vision for motorcycles. Let them know what you think. I want it ASAP.

Sorry for my poor language... I'm french.

This would not change that, but I really like the FLIR picture above. Being able to see past the glare of oncoming lights (esp. high up on SUVs) would be great. It is a chunk of change, and I'm not the target market (luddite, cheapskate, daytime rider). But I see the potential safety advantage. Use wisely, grasshopper. I don’t like driving at night.
