They may not save lives, but my Mistral short mufflers save weight and sound awesome! 

The old school life jackets might actually prevent a neck injury while riding and support the weight of the helmet.  And being orange will get you noticed.  You might want to give that a try wavedog.

I have a 17' fishing boat on a chain of lakes in upstate NY.  There were two drownings last year...a 62 yr old and a 16 yr old.  After that, my wife Barb said that I should wear a PFD when I go out on the lakes.  I bought a super light, auto-inflatable vest.  It's convenient, comfy, has pockets and doesn't look like a straight jacket.  Barb is happy, Doug is happy and I can still putter out at any time of day or night and terrorize the local fish population!  :cool:

Be well, stay well,

Wow Mayor...that's a first for me.  I once rode in an Amphicar, a little clumsy, but it worked.  But an amphibike?  I'd like to see that in action.  :grin:
