Cycling is dangerous enough without that distraction - just my 2 cents.

well, is it really anymore dangerous than a CB/radio/cd player/bluetooth that the EG's have?
that being said, I don't have any of these.... I test drove a Street Glide and a Road King and decided on the RK for the very reason that I knew I would be messing with the radio too much lol
I keep my VX7R in my bag.....with a ear bud.
When I want to se whats happening,, I set it on scan. pop in the ear piece. place the radio in my pocket and listen .....

Guess it would depend on how you plan to use the radio. I agree in most cases it might not be any different that using a CB, although anything that distracts you can increase the risk, but I can just see someone riding down the road and trying to work DX from their bike. Now that would be a bad idea. LOL
