This could be beneficial in some situations...
At $1000 for the HP vs. under $400 for the M27, I think I'll take my chances with the Blinder.
I would take my chances on the LI regulars instead of the HP before the Blinders. Just my .02
I understand that LIs are regarded as better equipment but do you really think they are necessary, as compared to the Blinders, on a bike? I was thinking the small frontal area, and little in the way of reflective surfaces wouldn't need much to provide good protection.
I wouldn't trust 2 blinder heads to protect my car's front end, and I wouldn't trust 2 blinder head to protect your bike front/back.
A little extra coin now could save you big coin and paranoia down the line.
I half assed it in the beginning with an LI Dual and after a while, I got paranoid about rear shots after other users in Atlanta got hit in the rear.. I had to reduce speed to 14 over or below when passing on-ramps or other potential rear shot areas, and never really felt confident.
..I'll be spending this weekend installing rear heads. They just came in the mail today. True story.
Pay for an M27, and wonder if you jammed when you are hit.
Pay for an LI HP, and know you jammed.
You may not even need an HP. Contact Cliff, he'll let you know.
