    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • This forum is for placing reviews for parts, accessories, gear and service as it relates to your GS motorcycle. The key here is "GS Related". There is a bit of latitude here but we don't want to see a review on Maytag washers just because that's what you use to clean your riding jacket in.

    Keep your review as factual as possible and please refrain from personal attacks. Posted articles will be reviewed by the Editors and may be removed at their discretion.

    So let's make this a useful addition to the forum! A special pat on the back goes to Hap Call for coming up with this great idea.

    The views expressed in this forum are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of "The GSResources" or the editors.

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Very much cool. I've wondered if anything like that was available.

But I want a FLIR (Forward Looking Infra Red) camera to connect to mine. (Headlights? Who needs 'em?)

that is awesome..
i want an automaker to integrate a true HUD in a car-- i think that it's important to be able to see everything that you need to know in a non-distracting, practical manner :)
 
I thought Cadilac or the Chevy Vette had introduced a HUD back in the early or mid 90's and it didn't take off like they thouhgt? I could be wrong. I've always been interested in the HUD for cars.

In a helmet, I'm not so sure. It sounds really cool though.
 
I thought I saw a high-end GM car advertised a few years ago that implied there was an IR camera with a heads-up display. The ad showed said vehicle driving though a forest as a doe approached the road.

Of couse, the first thing I'd do is add crosshairs...

Dave
 
Cadillac did, and may still offer a FLIR heads up display in their cars...

I wish they had that out now I'd put it on my bike then I'd always know how much over the speed limit I am :lol:.

I must disagree with the idea...
sorry but I reckon ......... to change your focus so much is too slow. That is to say... the time it takes to change your focal point from distant to the inside of your visor is much slower than taking a quick glance at the usual position of a speedo. I'm no Dr. but I have experimented on this very subject.

Also........ I would expect the display to be light generated, in some situations, the ambiant light would hamper the visability of the display... not to mention ........ after dark the display would be so bright in the corner of your vision, it would be a distraction.
for what its worth........... my 2 cents worth.
