Radar Detectors

[slightlymiffed]

Hi

With the increasing numbers of speed cameras and white vans cropping up around here I've been thinking about getting a radar detector for the bike... (Bandit 600 unfaired)...

I don't really have a problem with the fixed cameras as the bike brakes pretty well and you soon learn where they are but those white vans are becoming a pain in the a*s!

Would a detector give me a bit of a heads up if there is a van up the road ?

Any recommendations ?


Cheers

Thanks m8!

I've had it almost 5 years now, never failed me yet - the thing is bullet proof... Got it cheap second hand with less than 2K on the clock - found it using autotrader online.

I've made a few "special" modifications myself.. (lol)..
Brake lines, better suspension front and back and a nice loud race-can of course! Makes it handle much better, and sounds.. Mmmm..!
