Idea: Stor-More Key Safe - Keep Your Valuables Safe On Your Motorcycle

#Safe #Lock #Valuables - Here is an interesting project I found on CrowdSupply, a crowd-sourcing site, that could be of interest to the motorcycle community. The problem we often have is what to do with items like keys, (gate) remote controls, credit cards, etc when riding our bikes. When we've reached our destination, we just need to take them with us, but as you know, leathers are not always the easiest clothing to carry such items on you.

The Stor-More Key Safe from WordLock could solve that problem, and with a different twist, make it easier to remember the unlock code. The Stor-More Key Safe is a big stainless steel canister with an aluminium locking head making the unit a very solid safe. It can hold up to 30 keys, so enough space to hold most valuables that you do not want to keep in your pockets...........

Reevu Adds HUD To Motorcycle Helmet Integrated Mirror

#Reevu #HUD #Helmet - Reevu are those folks that have made several years ago a helmet with an integrated mirror, allowing you to see what is going on behind you from the top of your helmet where a mirror is integrated. This way your eyes would have to travel far less distance to "see" behind you. The idea is pretty interesting, but after a fast "mini-test" I noticed that your eyes needed to get used to the concept and the mirror is actually quite small, which worried me slightly.

Despite several attempts, Reevu never wanted to send over a review helmet for me to test properly, so I can only stand by my original review. Now Reevu are adding more information to the mix. They have what they call the "Intelligent EYE Helmet" device, a device that uses Reevu's own MROPS (Multiple Reflective Optical Systems - the process that makes it possible to see behind you) and projects data from integrated mobile communications into the mirror system. This data is presented to you the way a fighter pilots gets his data, in the form of a Heads Up Display (HUD)...........

FFMC No To MOT

#MOT #France #Protest - With the heavy political horsetrading and self-serving actions by European politicians, the mandatory annual technical inspections for motorcycles is back on the table, despite promises from the politicians ("the cheque is in the mail") of the contrary. Obviously many national motorcycle lobby groups, lead by FEMA, will not take this lying down.

The French very active Association of Angry Bikers, the FFMC, usually takes the fight to the streets, and for sure this will happen. But they also launched another campaign, this one a bit more subtle...........
