Lighting Arrangements

[2qmedic]

Hey Folks,
I am doing a presentation on street survival.
Something that I need are pictures (or video) of different lighting arrangements (with lights on) from a single head light to fog lights, driving lights, ect..in various arrangements for the purpose of demonstrating that the lighting up front can make a difference in how visible we are to the other drivers on the road.
I would appreciate any one who would be willing to share some photos for this presentation.
thanks in advance.
Charles

This is how I roll at night.

I don't have anything from the front of my Valk with the lights on (along with the headlight, I've added a light bar and driving lights...for a total of five lights on the front), but I do have a short vid of the lights that I've added to the rear of my Valk.  You're welcome to use it if you want. 

Honda Valkyrie - LED turn and tag light modifications

Just took these, so here you go.

 Beltsanders do you have a link for the tag light mode? I like that it looks like a great attention getter.

Sorry this is inside my garage, but I think you can see what the brake light looks like and regular running light.  It is a 137 count LED replacement for the Valkyrie, VTX and some others.    Expensive also.




Brake light, not reflection in the tractor seat, yes, it is bright.
Also, the license plate reflectors, this brake light over powers  the 8 LED flashing lights that are also attention getters......



Side view of the brake light.





Just the tail light.

Some of the forward reflections are headlight and 2 50 watt driving lights on a Cobra light bar......

Nico, I like the rear lights on your bike. PM sent for more info...

Sure Mitch.  Got it here........

It's the Knight Riderz plate frame from Custom Dynamics.  They have bunches and bunches of cool stuff.  I think's about 60 bucks or so.  It's veeeeeeeery bright, even during the day in bright sunlight.....and people DO see you. 


btw.....the turn signal mod was from Electrical Connection.  That was about 50 bucks.  Allows you to have run/brake lights in RED while still keeping your signals in AMBER.  I thought is was way cool too.

I appreciate the photos and links (havn't seen that site yet), this will be one less thing to find.
Cheers

Reflective always helps, no matter which end.  My lower headlamps (now 35w) are currently mounted to top of engine guard.  This location cuts down on road glare to oncoming traffic (very offensive).

Good Luck with the presentation.

fnsmoak,

Cool, thanks alot, I'll use a sample of these fer sure!
I personally think that the triangle of lights are the most conspicious on the road. But where in the world did you get the reflective Honda emeblems?

Thanks for the photos

[Jabba]

I'll try to snap a pic of mine from the front too.  I have 2 small, bright driving lights on a custom light bar, below the mail light on mine.

Fnsmoak, I really like those reflectors.  I don't want them for MY bike... but they are cool as hell on YOURS. 

I mean that with a lot of sincerity.  I LOVE Black Dog's floorboards.  LOVE them... but don't WANT a set.
