LED means Light Emitting Diode...which makes "diode LEDs" a rather weird phrase. Thumbs up if you hate those annoying people correcting every small mistake you make.
They are Legal Everywhere in the world same as cars, as long as the user is not driving with them while they are functional. Now if you're in a parking lot with owners premission and they are active, the law inforcement can not touch you. Again with Store owners permission since it is private property
Typically Illegal, but the Police won't care unless you're driving around with them on on the street.
Ont of the things I couldn't make sense of was a guy with a Kawasaki riding with red headlights. Apparently thought he was Dennis Anderson or something.
The bike lights are not illegal. As long as he isn't using blue, and they are not neon, its alright. Neons are illegal since they can break, and and if you break a neon light while it is on it can be very very dangerous.
@jbat3535 Neons/LEDs are illegal only in specific states, and some states only allow certain colors to be displayed, while others limit to like.. You can not have RED and BLUE in a sequence one right after another. There has to be 1 or 2 colors in between.
In IL its illegal to drive with them on. In IA its OK to drive with them on.
I think its illegal in Taiwan as well. But the cops are pretty chill there, and at night nothing is closed so the streets are lit up well enough that, the strobing lights should not be that big a problem. Not like in the US where its pitch dark in a lot of places.
you can have neon lighting in US, but no BLUE color anywhere, or RED color in the front of an vehicle, those by law is reserved for emergency vehicle only! I was explained by DMV after I got pull over. :D
I had a ton of led on my scooter, Used it for like 2 days then i got pulled over by the cops and got a ticket (It's illegal to use any neon glow in sweden)
For the road (other than showcase/competition), when placed/used properly can be a great way to improve visibility to others, HOWEVER when placed/used improperly it can be a possible distraction to the point of being hazardous....such as when on strob and/or official emergency colors are used or if placed in a way that it's directed at eye level.
BUT on an aesthetic stand point, when placed in well thought spots on the bike, it can look AWESOME! Like this one. XD
yo man im interested, im a recent viewer of your videos and I can see you are white and Canadian, and your son appears to be part Chinese, and you live in Taiwan...
so how does a white canadian decide to go to taiwan, learn chinese (presumably from scratch) and settle there, get married and permanently live there?? what made you do it man
kewl stuff, too bad it's probably illegal in most countries... but w/e, for show when your parked, it should be fine... too bad there's no shots of it while it's moving....
Here in the UK you can't have blue lights or reflective material on your vehicle (doesn't matter about flashing or if they're even switched on - if they're mounted/plugged in they're illegal)... as far as I know, all the other colours are OK though (if not I'm sure someone will be along to correct me soon).
Personally I'd just keep it on static white. Looks cool, and probably a good safety feature - I'm surprised you don't see it more often actually.
Possibly, but the cops in my area (Lancaster, PA) don't care if its flashing both red and blue with a siren going off in the background :p Haha probably not so much the siren, but I have a $100 kit that does 17 colors, flashing or fading, and I've used every combination with no hassles from the po.
a more useless potential for these LEDs is actually increasing the visibility of the BIKE itself even more from the sides therefore better at the night time for probably reduced crashes.
Yeah they are great until the wires wear down and rub against your frame causing it to earth, short circuting and then blowing your dash, pumps twice as many volts through your alternator causing it to fry and then blowing a cell on your battery. . . Use heat shrink tube and be sure to fit a 5volt fuse box just to be safe.
Like it says in the description you can leave them on while parked for as long as you want (less than 12 hours). Would look cool your Ninja on the promenade changing colours like that.
Depends where you are, i have green ones on my black bike and I get Random breath tested and they comment me on them saying how much the like them, then you go into a different state here in AUS and they are illegal to even have em fitted. different states different laws.
I've never been in much favor of led lights pointin downwards like that. But 1 thing I'd sure as hell love to see, is real strobes pointing forward, to attract attention when riding aggressively at night. (or daytime, just need extra strobes :)
You could pick a color that best suits your riding style each day... Blue for "I'm feeling relaxed, smooth and slow" and red for "I'MA BLOW YA'LL AWAAAAY"
lol Brown for when youre about to fall off.... No need for an explation lol
i have led's in my bike in australia and it helps people see you at night and so far the cops have just said it is a good idea to be seen a bit easier. as long as they stayed the one colour that is.
@xinheng If you look at the tire you can see that it doesnt have the little tread divets, but is rather just bald, thus track tires. Its probably his track bike.
i hope he can set it so they turn off when he turns his bike off. i wonder if this is legal in the states. i have seen some choppers with them but idk
