Why no rear foglight? - Retrofit?

[stonetown]

I've got em on the front of my GSA, but why isn't a rear fog light available as an option for the rear? It would seem like a sensible option!

Is there an aftermarket light than can be fitted?

A question that I have been pondering too - you get them on just about every car, so why not on bikes. OK, I can see that a track day bike has little use for a fog light, but a tourer or commuter .... the Silhouette of a bike is small and the rear protection is non-existant - So, why no rear foglight?

I bodged one up from a standard LED stop/tail replacement lamp bulb. Wired both 'stop' and 'tail' LEDs together then took a feed from the auxilliary socket to a switch on the bars and back to the bulb. The individual LEDs have a narrow beam angle and so there is no need for an additional lens or reflector. Soldered the wires to the bulb and then encased the whole lot in some heat-shrinkable sleeving with some silicone to keep the water out. The entire thing is only about 30mm in diameter and maybe 50mm long so can be mounted anywhere you fancy, just need to align it properly so it's pointing straight back down the road. It's much brighter than the standard stop light on the bike and seems to fend off blind car drivers when it's grim on the road.
