Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0138783A1] A safety light system for use on a motorcycle (11) having a strobe light mounted in a protected position (32, 35) and wherein the light can be activated for use when driving so that the light shines at the road substantially beneath the vehicle or at a small angle so as to provide an illuminated aura around the motorcycle on the road. A protected area represented as (32) appears in the front of the frame and behind the front fork (26). Therefore, a collision with a tree or the like which could render the front headlight (16) broken will not usually destroy a light located at position (32). There is also a second protected position shown as (35) located under the seat (24) extending rearwardly from an upper part of the frame and behind the petrol tank (22).
