The present invention comprises an illumination device (1210) of a vehicle which is operated at least partially by human power, having at least one light guide element (1220) and one mounting device which is adapted to accommodate an external light source in such a manner that the light which is emitted by the light source can be fed at least partially into the light guide element (1220) and can exit from the light guide element (1220) in such a manner that the emerging light can serve as illumination for the vehicle which is operated at least partially by human power. The present invention further comprises a method for controlling the illumination device of vehicles which are operated at least partially by human power, and trailers thereof, and also an application for controlling the illumination device of vehicles which are operated at least partially by human power, and trailers thereof.

A front structure of a saddled vehicle having a meter unit of a less thickness and rendering meter-side and wiring-side couplers hardly visible from the outside is disclosed. The front structure includes a stem shaft rotatably mounted through a head pipe disposed in a front portion of a vehicle body frame and steerably supporting a front wheel, a top bridge coupling the stem shaft with a handle, a meter unit disposed in front of the top bridge and including a meter display on a top face of the meter unit, a meter-side coupler disposed on the meter unit, and a wiring-side coupler disposed on a side of wiring connected to the meter-side coupler, wherein the meter unit includes a coupler support member extending behind the meter display and supporting the meter-side coupler, and the coupler support member is disposed below the top bridge.

A motorcycle light includes a lighting device, having a headlight contained within a housing; a rod configured to engage with a headlight connection of a motorcycle; and one or more wires to engage with an electrical system of the motorcycle; a motor engaged with the housing and to provide rotational movement of the housing relative to the rod; and one or more sensors in electrical communication with the motor and to detect when the motorcycle is at a leaning position, the one or more sensors to provide a command to the motor to rotate the housing to a desired angle for improved visibility.

A motorcycle (1) including: a motorcycle body (2,3,4) extending along a longitudinal axis (L-L) and having a front part (2), a tail part (4) and a central part (3) comprised between the front part (2) and the tail part (4); at least two wheels (5,6) constrained to the motorcycle body (2,3,4), including a front wheel (5) and a rear wheel (6); a traction engine (7) constrained to the motorcycle body (2, 3, 4) and operatively connected to at least one of the wheels (5, 6); at least one headlight (12) fixed to the front part (2); at least one rear light (14) fixed to the tail part (4). The motorcycle (1) further includes a first auxiliary lighting device (30) fixed to the motorcycle body (2,3,4) and adapted to be electrically controlled in order to be activated and deactivated, wherein the first auxiliary lighting device (30) is arranged and oriented so that, when activated, it lights a ground portion (G1) being on the side and/or under the central part (3) of the motorcycle body (2,3,4).

Position indicating devices, systems and methods useable for signaling the positions of pedestrians or vehicles.

An electrically power assisted bicycle includes an electric motor that generates an assist force assisting human power of a rider, a detachable battery that supplies electric power to the electric motor, a headlight, and an operation panel including a display that displays information, a power button that turns on or off the electrically power assisted bicycle, an illuminance sensor that outputs a signal in accordance with received light, and a controller configured or programmed to control the headlight to be on or off. The power button and the illuminance sensor are located close to each other on or in the operation panel. After a predetermined time period passes after the controller is activated by the power button being pressed by the rider, the controller starts controlling the headlight to be on or off in accordance with the signal output by the illuminance sensor.

A headlight device for a saddled vehicle includes an LED light source and a mechanism which enlarges an illumination range upward in a turning direction at the time of turning traveling. The mechanism includes, at a position on an outer side, in the vehicle width direction, of a high-beam reflector that reflects forward emitted light from a high-beam, an outer reflection section that reflects the emitted light further upward than the direction of emission of the high-beam reflector. The outer reflection section is provided on at least one of left and right high-beam reflectors, and is configured to be covered by an extension serving as a decorative part, in front view of the vehicle body.

An electronic device comprises a wireless transmitter and an operation device. The operation device comprises a base, a brake lever, operation portions and an electronic controller. The base is to be removably attached to a handlebar. The operation portions includes first, second and third operation portions. The first operation portion is arranged on the base. The second and third operation portions are arranged adjacent to the brake lever and are disposed between the brake lever and the handlebar. At least one of the operation portions includes a lever. At least one of the operation portions includes a button. The electronic controller is configured to transmit an operation signal to the wireless transmitter upon operation of any of the operation portions to control at least one bicycle component that is any one of a shifting device, a brake device, an adjustable seatpost, a suspension and a drive unit.

A bicycle including a handlebar attached to a frame at substantially a midpoint, a first set of light sources disposed to project light in a first forward direction, said first set of light sources including a fixed light source and a motor-controlled light source, disposed to project light in a second forward direction said second set of light sources including a fixed light source and a motor-controlled light source, a controller, said controller disposed on the handlebar, said controller coupled to the first set of light sources and the second set of light sources, a rotation sensor operable to sense movement of the handlebar relative to the frame, said rotation sensor coupled to the controller, wherein the motor-controlled light sources move in response to the position of the rotation sensor.
