Design help for additional brake warning light...please!!
I'm a 'down-shifter' when slowing for hazards, stop lights, whatever; consequently, I don't always tap the brakes enough to alert drivers behind me. I try to remain conscious of traffic, but am VERY interested in adding a device to my bike that would automatically flash and notify others that I'm slowing down. In another thread, someone kindly mentioned a "gear brake". I consulted the makers, only to find that, while it is quite compatible with ST's and RT's, it is not compatible with the F3.
So, my question: does anyone have a suitable alternative that will work on my new F3? Alternatively, is there anyone in the aftermarket business who cares to develop such a product? Or, does anyone have any designs that might simply incorporate a 'front brake-type lever' that could be wired up to simply flash an auxiliary brake warning light? I'm thinking that a quick squeeze or two with the hand would be faster than trying to repeatedly tap the brake pedal, and the two systems could be used in combination - lots of warning lights!!
Thanks for any suggestions.

you beat me to this Joe
