PS: I guess Harry won't have to worry about the fog

I was a little worried about my visibility, too, but nobody seemed to be buzzing me any more closely than usual.
I've been running 2 Dinotte 140L tailights--one on the bike and one on the helmet. I didn't notice any problem being seen even on the 45 mph Rossville Blvd with no shoulder.
