Default Lighted windshield

Found this on e-bay, looks pretty cool, wonder if any of you have one on your bikes? Your thoughts?

Seems like a bad idea at night. Could be fun for when the bike is parked.

Cool concept, but I wonder about night riding too. I suppose you could just turn it off and use it when parked.

But I always say, the world is full of clever people. I like the part about putting your company logo on it and then writing off your bike as an advertising expense.

Do you think they have Willie G's okay to use his Skull graphic?

Seems a bit over-the-top to me and it would certainly give me problems when riding at night. In the picture it looks cool though. It's like those LED lizard lights. I saw them on an Ultra and they looked pretty cool, but I wouldn't put them on my bike. To each his/her own.

Alabama doesn't prohibit additional lighting. They only permit certain lighting. Only White and Amber/Yellow from the front and Red and Amber/Yellow from the rear. Blue is reserved for law enforcement and is a quick ticket if any blue is on you vehicle. If you can see this design from the rear when riding it would be very distracting. I had a windshield that carried the yellow from my running lights illuminating the out edge similar to the way fiber optics work and it drove me crazy. i put a piece of tape over the contact of the bulbs that cut off the running lights but still allowed the turn signals to work.
