I was overtaking a rider who has Varia. Could tell by the distinctive bright flash pattern - note:never look directly at the LED when flashing. I have made that mistake a couple of times. Anyway, when I did overtake the guy, he said, “I thought you were a car”. That is a testament to how sensitive the radar is.
But it does sound like the OP had his mind made-up before posting. Makes me wonder why? Plenty of compelling arguments ‘for’ but they are obviously disregarded.
