Motorcycle lighting systems
A motorcycle lighting system including a plurality of LED light members fixedly embedded within hollow frame members of a motorcycle, a series of wires attached to respective light members and threaded through the interior of the hollow frame members and connected with control members attached to the handle bars of the motorcycle frame such that a rider can control the color and flashing sequences of the light members when in use. The frame can include any known and usual parts including highway bars.
Blinker device
The elastic member (60) is enabled, by temporarily elastically deforming a part thereof, to be fitted with and removed from the fixing portion (24a), and is provided with a tabular fixing member (80) that prevents elastic deformation of the elastic member (60) by being fixed to the elastic member (60), and a fastening member (90) that integrally fixes the blinker housing (51), the elastic member (60), and the fixing member (80). In the fixing member (80), a fastening hole portion (86) through which the fastening member (90) is inserted and a wiring hole portion (83) through which a wiring (92) that supplies electricity to the light source (54) is inserted are disposed side by side to each other, and in the wiring hole (83), a cut-away (83a) to open a part of the wiring hole (83) is provided.
Headlight device for motorcycle
A headlight device (40) for a motorcycle is accommodated in a front fairing (30). The headlight device (40) includes lamp units (42) using LEDs as light sources (46a, 48a), and a power supply circuit unit (44) which controls power from a power supply and supplies the power to the light sources (46a, 48a). The power supply circuit unit (44) is accommodated in a recess (56) provided in an upper portion of the lamp units (42).
Cable connection for a motor unit of an electric auxiliary drive for a bicycle
A cable connection on a motor unit of an electric auxiliary drive for a bicycle, the motor unit includes an external rotor having a rotational axis that is perpendicular to the plane of the wheels. The cable connection has a solid connecting piece which can be connected to the motor unit and conductors for connection to the cores of a cable to be fed at an angle.
Harness support structure of motorcycle
In a harness support structure for a motorcycle, a cable bracket is supported by a top bridge, and an upper lamp bracket for supporting a headlamp device is fitted to the cable bracket. A first holding portion for holding an intermediate portion of cable members having respective one end portion connected with a handle is provided in the cable bracket. The cable bracket is provided with a regulating portion for inhibiting a forward movement of the cable member at a location distant from a handle side rather than the first holding portion.
Harness routing structure for saddled vehicle
A harness routing structure for a saddled vehicle includes a side body cover section, a center cover, a fuel tank having a fuel filler opening at an upper surface, and a refueling tray configured to be supported by the fuel tank, in the harness routing structure for a saddled vehicle used in the saddled vehicle having a straddling space disposed at an upper side of the center cover and through which a passenger passes his/her legs to ride the vehicle, a main harness extending from a front side of the straddling space to a rear side of the straddling space is routed below the center cover, is passed through a side of the refueling tray, and is routed between the side body cover section and the refueling tray.
Composite bicycle frame with integral electrical interconnections and method of manufacturing same
A composite bicycle frame which comprises of a main frame including interconnected tubes and substantially composed of a composite material and having a composite layup structure. At least one electric wire electrically interconnects electrical components mounted to or in the frame. The at least one electric wire is embedded in the composite material structure forming the composite main frame. The electric wire has connectable conductive ends at each of the opposed ends thereof.
Bicycle with detachable head-tube subassembly
A bicycle may include a detachable head subassembly comprising a fork configured to support a front wheel, and handlebars connected to the fork via a stem at least partially disposed in a head-tube. The head-tube has a first attachment feature. The bicycle may also include a frame having a second attachment feature. The first and second attachment features cooperate to releasably attach the head subassembly to the frame.
