Well we have , sat navs , gear indicators , traction lights , etc so what do you think of this ?

Basically it just shows you how far your leaning into the corner ! The price at £80 seems decent . But i can see people using it on the road , blocking the vision of the clocks , and taking corners with more lean trying to better the last time they rode !

Pretty sure the new bmw s1000rr has it on within the display so all the main superbikes will be running them soon, can see it bring a fun bit of kit on a track but ever the pessimistic could see the police confiscating it in the event of an accident...explain that 56 degree lean angle away :)

Should make you a real hit with the Ladies when you get your 'Leanometer' out to show them what angles you got to on your last ride out!.......

Is there not a phone app for that already.
Certainly for me in real time, the only place my eyes are trained is at the corner exit.
After the fact, chicken strips and asset lightening registers will suffice.
Agree, that it could be incriminating if time stamped.

Is there a legal limit on lean angle?.....
You could get very different angles for the same speed depending on body position or tip in point?
