[QUOTE="brett636, post: 309414, member: 249"] To help quell the motorcycle headlight debate all motorcycles built for the U.S. since 1978 has to have the headlight come on automatically when the engine is running. My bike does just that. As a rider who has taken rider education classes, and studied detailed techniques on riding will say a motorcycle on a normal day, moving at normal speeds will appear to move slower than it actually is. The small footprint a motorcycle leaves in someone's vision range sometimes doesn't even register as a moving vehicle, but maybe reflected sunlight. As a rider I take these things into account when I ride and try not to put myself into the position this rider obviously did. As this video shows, a motorcycle is hard to spot when riding in a legal manner. Riding at extreme speeds on city streets only increases the odds that this will happen.
