Back off?
Has anyone put that back off for your brake lights on your bike? How does it work and what does it do and last but not least-do you like it? Thanks....

Are you talking about one similar to this?

I have had one on the bike for many years that flashes left/right several times then switches to Both on, each time the brake is applied.

I have been told it is quite effective,
The only stupid questions are the one's that are not asked.

That is it tricky. I will be getting the one for the LED's because I will be changing to this when Jim gets them in. Thanks for the info.

I've got the Back Off version that flashes the brake lights several times and then goes solidly on each time you hit the brakes. Along with my headlight modulator and air horn I feel a lot more visible and audible.

It confuses the kids waiting for the school bus.

And all the parents in cars seem to pull over also. Quite the color for safety.

Just think of all the extra money you could make while you were doing something you loved. Big Grin

If you treat your 1200 right, and trust her, she can and will save your butt from a lot of bad scenes. Just believe in her! Mine has several times.
