The picture in your sig is what i would think they are for. Would be nice to have flashers for when you hop off and enjoy the scenery, but then again, I would get off the road and park her some place safe. I do remember seeing other bikes with flashers though.

I could see that possibly being useful as an alarm.

Or even better, something you could activate remotely when too many people are gawking at your bike for you to get through the crowd.  ;D

It's indeed used when you're lanesplitting here in Europe. A simple mod to do by the way.
I don't really get it though. The idea behind it is to warn the other (car)drivers that you're coming through.
If they didn't see you coming with you're lights on, they won't see you coming with those warninglights on as well, my opinion.
You better make some noise with, let's say, Termi's. Way cooler. By the way, lanesplitting isn't legal, it's just tolerated. So are Termi's in most European countries.
