A headlight device including a headlight configured to emit light frontward of a leaning vehicle to form a lower light beam, an upper central light beam, an upper left light beam and an upper right light beam, and a control device that controls light emission from the headlight without any user operation. The control device forms both the upper left and the upper right light beams while the leaning vehicle is traveling straight, and reduces a brightness of the upper left and upper right light beams, responsive to a vehicle being illuminated by the upper left and upper right light beams respectively, and forms the upper left and upper right light beams respectively while the leaning vehicle is turning left and right, and maintains the brightness of the formed upper left or upper right light beam regardless of whether any vehicle is illuminated by the upper left or upper right light beam.

A lighting apparatus includes a light source part having a first light source and a second light source provided away from the first light source, a reflective part provided away from the first light source and second light source and reflecting light emitted from the first light source and second light source, and a support part facing the reflective part and supporting the light source part. The reflective part includes a plurality of reflective plates which are continuously provided. Each of the reflective plates provided adjacent to one another has a reflective surface which is shaped differently from one another.

A straddle type vehicle include a headlight unit configured to emit light ahead of a vehicle, and a detecting unit configured to detect a situation on a front side of the vehicle. The headlight unit includes a peripheral wall portion that defines an outer shape thereof. The peripheral wall portion includes a concave portion in which the detecting unit is arranged.

A lighting apparatus includes a light source part having a first light source and a second light source provided away from the first light source, a reflective part provided away from the first light source and second light source and reflecting light emitted from the first light source and second light source, and a support part facing the reflective part and supporting the light source part. The reflective part includes a plurality of reflective plates which are continuously provided. Each of the reflective plates provided adjacent to one another has a reflective surface which is shaped differently from one another.

Devices, methods, and systems for a headlight assembly are described herein. One system includes a first light source that partially obscures a second light source and a channel is coupled between the first light source and the second light source. In some examples, a first mounting tab and a second mounting tab is coupled to a housing containing the first light source and second light source, and a indicator light is press fit onto the housing in a position that is visible to a motorcycle rider from a seated position.

A vehicle illumination system provided in a vehicle capable of traveling around a corner by inclining a vehicle body toward a turning direction includes: a headlamp mounted on a front portion of the vehicle; a communication lamp disposed on the vehicle body in a region adjacent to the head lamp so as to be visible from ahead of the vehicle; and an illumination control unit configured to change a lighting mode of the communication lamp depending on a state of the vehicle.

A lighting device for a headlight includes a light-emitting element carrier having a longitudinal direction. At least one low-light-emitting element, at least one high-light-emitting element, and at least one position light-emitting element are arranged at the light-emitting element carrier. The at least one position light-emitting element is arranged, in respect of the longitudinal direction, in a front facing end zone of the light-emitting element carrier, and the at least one low-light-emitting element and the at least one high-light-emitting element in respect of the longitudinal direction are arranged behind the at least one position light-emitting element.

A vehicle illumination system provided in a vehicle capable of traveling around a corner by inclining a vehicle body toward a turning direction includes: a headlamp mounted on a front portion of the vehicle; a communication lamp disposed on the vehicle body in a region adjacent to the head lamp so as to be visible from ahead of the vehicle; and an illumination control unit configured to change a lighting mode of the communication lamp depending on a state of the vehicle.

A headlamp device for use in a leaning vehicle, including at least one headlamp that emits light in a front direction, and a pair of cornering lamps that emit light to form left-front and right-front light emission areas. Each of the at least one headlamp includes at least one headlamp light source, and a headlamp housing that stores the at least one headlamp light source and that is arranged inside the front cover. Each cornering lamp includes at least one cornering lamp light source, a light travel direction changing member having a light travel direction changing surface that changes a travel direction of light outputted from the at least one cornering lamp light source, and a cornering lamp housing that stores therein the at least one cornering lamp light source and the light travel direction changing member, and that is arranged inside the front cover. The cornering lamp housing and the headlamp housing are separate from each other.

In order to provide a motorcycle light in which a sufficient and sufficiently distributed light intensity can be provided with an emitting surface that appears as attractive as possible, it is assumed that the appearance of a motorcycle light is decisively influenced by the emitting surface and the subassemblies located in front of it in the main beam direction thereof, starting from the light sources and extending via the subassemblies that influence the light up to the emitting surface, wherein precisely the emitting surface and these subassemblies are also responsible for a sufficient and a sufficiently distributed light intensity. In particular, this influence and responsibilities seem to be of greater importance than the housing of the motorcycle light, which traditionally has been accorded great importance.
