I know a guy who has it on his RC51 and its pretty trick. Never ridden anything with it but i'm sure it would work well. I'd say if you have the money go for it. He mounted the camera in the undertail and you don't even notice them. Very Dope!

If you dont poses the rider skill to turn your head to look behind you AND stay riding in a stright line you should be investing in a motorcycle riding class instead of a Lincoln Navigator style rear view camera.

You still have to look away from the road to look at the screen and then it only tells you what is directly behind you and gives you a HUGE blind spot should you chose to only use it and not look.

Not to mention its major $$$

Dont do it.

Laughing my **** off. I have over 30,000 miles on a street bike, some track time, and yes, the MSF certificate. The main reason I want the thing is it's f'in cool and different from most set-ups. I'd still head check with this set up, makes no difference, mostly a tantalizing custom eye candy with acertain degreeof functionability. Money's not an issue. Thanks breath, i was worried about holding a line while doing a head check LMAO.

The Ant-Racing Rear Vision System is nothing short of F'in amazing. Crystal clear at speeds up to 130 mph (so far). I wear glasses when I work, so my sight is not 20/20, however, I do not wear them on the bike. I was cruising at about 90-100 and passed some road debri which could not have been larger than, lets saya DVD box. Passing it at about 100, I looked down and saw it zoom past in my moniter, I was truely amazed. I think this should come stock on all bikes and I know will prove usefull in times to come. Obviously it doesnt replace the ol' head check, but this device is a God Send. Wish I could say the same for Ant-racing customer service. It took a month to git, but honestly, well worth the wait and every dime spent. Even if I am going to be limited to ramen noodles for a bit.

see pics of it intalled here:
