I am concerned for the safety of others besides myself. Therefore, this test of mine will be performed late at night on an empty road. There are six of us including myself. This alone is my own stupidity I know. Somebody has to try it.

Hmm seeing I have worked with NVG's on countless times. Be CAREFUL!!!!! It does not give depth perception. Just be careful
Thankyou for the info. Viewing through these I see what you mean. I'll keep this in mind.

I agree with the Marine on this one. NVGs are not as easy to use as people think. They do not give the adequate depth perception and on a bike at high speeds this is very dangerous.

We want you to stick around...just ride in ways that allow you to stick around. Please consider the element of danger in this act, and make sure that nobody other than you is at risk!!!

My passion is ruling my reason. Dont buy it. I dont care. I'll be fine.

I'm not going out there and blasting off into 100+ recklessly here.

My main problem is the wiring for everything off except my taillight, for the video. Just a setback.
