Head Check Signals was created by KZQ
I just picked up a set of reflective stickers for my helmet that are meant to help announce your intention when you make a head check before changing lanes. I think these things might just help get a rider noticed before it's too late.

Cool and ugly, but very clever. I would say that is using your head:)
Is someone selling these aftermarket?

I think he is going for safety, not looks. I think they are designed to not be seen unless you have your head turned sideways. Great idea. Every little bit helps.

Hey they look no worse than some of those helmets that are painted in all those multicolor schemes. While riding down the road, their true function is not readily apparent other drivers just think they're just another "Go Fast" theme. But when the rider does a head check their true purpose really jumps out.
