Does it have a siren that warns vehicle drivers that the idiot rider is splitting the lane and passing them on the right?

I would like one with a loud speaker to warn pedestrians with pithy epithets.

But there is nothing to protect the riders teeth.

That is totally cool, if it has good battery life and they can make it bright.

I would hope it uses LED technology - that should be plenty bright.

Hey Don S - don't worry, the "loud pipes saves lives" crowd will only be on your right for a split second...

For the record, I still own my Snell 95 certified Shoei helmet - a Kenny Roberts replica I wore when I lived in Taiwan.  In 1995 and 1996 I was one of VERY few people even wearing a helmet in Taipei city.  They were considered rain gear there!

I don't wear it anymore for the record, it is just a decoration piece in my man cave.  I sold my last bike to buy an engagement ring 14 years ago.  I still miss riding in the Spring when I first hear the wail of a 4 cylinder sportbike, but the T Bird helps get me past it.

Then perhaps a pith helmet would work. How about a steam punk version?
