MOTORCYCLE LIGHT FOR REALIZING AT LEAST ONE LIGHT FUNCTION
The invention relates to a motorcycle lamp (2) for implementing at least one lamp function. The motorcycle lamp (2) comprises a housing (4) having a light-emission aperture (6), a bracket (8) mounted on the housing (4) for securing the motorcycle lamp (2) to a motorcycle, at least one light source (10) disposed in the housing (4) and a front optics (12) made of a solid transparent material disposed between the at least one light source (10) and the light-emission aperture (6), wherein the at least one light source (10) comprises an LED and is disposed and oriented in the housing (4) such that it emits light in a main radiation direction (14) extending through the light-emission aperture (6), and wherein the front optics (12) closes the light-emission aperture (6) and deflects and shapes the light emitted by the at least one light source (10) to generate a light distribution corresponding to a lamp function implemented by the motorcycle lamp (2). In order for the lamp (2) to improve the lateral perceptibility without the use of additional optical elements in the optical path, it is proposed that a light-emission surface (16) of the front optics (12) has a first convex curvature when viewed in a horizontal plane (yz) and a second convex curvature when viewed in a vertical plane (xz), the latter being smaller than the first convex curvature in the horizontal plane (yz) or flat.
Headlamp with sensor
A motorcycle headlamp includes a carrier, a light fixture mounted on the carrier, and at least one sensor for detecting features of an area lying in front of the motorcycle in the direction of travel. An opening is provided in the carrier, and the sensor can be arranged in the opening.

Techniques are disclosed for systems and methods associated with locking a micromobility transit vehicle to a stationary object. A multimodal transportation system may include a docking station including a securement point, and a micromobility transit vehicle securable to the securement point of the docking station. The micromobility transit vehicle may include a storage basket and a lock cable including a first end coupled to the storage basket and a second end. The second end of the lock cable may be securable to the securement point of the docking station to lock the micromobility transit vehicle to the docking station. The storage basket may include a pin lock. The pin lock may engage a locking pin of the lock cable to lock the micromobility transit vehicle via the lock cable.
LIGHT ASSEMBLY FOR MOUNTING A LIGHT ELEMENT TO A VEHICLE AND METHODS THEREOF
A light assembly including a light holder is disclosed. The light holder includes a first ring configured for threaded engagement with a second ring to form a body defining an annular cavity to maintain a light element in a fixed position relative to a motorcycle or other vehicle. The light holder includes a spacer preconfigured for the light element that provides cushion and vibration protection between the body and the light element. Alignment markers defined along the body accommodate identification of one or more axial configurations of the first ring relative to the second ring for secure threaded engagement.

HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY
In some embodiments, a snowmobile has a body with a headlight assembly that includes a headlight and a cowl. The headlight includes a lens with a center section, and two side sections, wherein one side section includes an extended portion. The cowl is attached to the headlight and covers a portion of the lens. The cowl includes a middle section and two wings extending from the middle section, where the wing, positioned over the one side section with the extended portion, has a notch revealing the extended portion.
Adapter Bracket for a Motorcycle Headlamp
An adapter bracket for a motorcycle headlamp is shown and described. The adapter bracket generally includes an annular ring having an open interior defined by an interior circumference, an exterior circumference, a top surface and a bottom surface, a plurality of indexing apertures disposed around the interior circumference, and a plurality of clamping tabs disposed around the exterior circumference. The adapter bracket further includes a plurality of ears attached to the annular ring, the ears having a slot for receiving a threaded anti-vibration bushing. The adapter bracket also includes a headlight aiming riser. A headlamp is disposed in the open interior of the annular ring and the annular ring is secured by the clamping tabs to a retaining ring and the annular ring, the headlamp, and the retaining ring are secured to a main bracket by fasteners that engage with the threaded anti-vibration bushings.

MOTORCYCLE LIGHT HAVING AN EMITTING BODY SEALING THE HOUSING WITH A RAISED LINE SHAPED MOLDING
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.
A SADDLED VEHICLE
A saddled vehicle includes: a handlebar assembly for steering of the vehicle; and a handlebar cover assembly including a front handlebar cover and a rear handlebar cover. The front handlebar cover and the rear handlebar cover are configured to enclose a substantial front portion and a rear portion of the handlebar assembly. The handlebar cover assembly includes a top handlebar cover configured to support at least one display device. The front handlebar cover includes a first receiving portion configured to receive a first top cover wall of the top handlebar cover. The rear handlebar cover includes a second receiving portion configured to receive a second top cover wall of the top handlebar cover. The first top cover wall is configured to support at least one accessory. The second top cover wall includes an accommodating portion configured to receive the at least one display device.
