  • Sectret Project Teaser...

    Some may remember (some may have lives and not ), a while back in my LED headlight thread I mentioned a 'secret project'. While progress has been RIDICULOUSLY slow, I got the part in the mail yesterday and thought I would show off a 'teaser.' If you look in the upper left corner you can see my poor attempt at making the Rising Sun.

      Ghost Rider?

      Yeah......I figure we'll know when your headlight project is up and running: Hospitals reporting an unusual spike in the number of people with retinal BURNs.

      I'm going with some form of "keyless" ignition system. Either Digital Wireless FM or possibly an IR like a remote control.

      Push Button: An otherwise "normal" XS starts up and Idles with no rider to be seen.

      You GOTTA have this done before Halloween.

        Whatever it Takes...

        No No...Wait!!

        I change my guess:

        It's a Tail light Red LED arrangement that Flashes "XS 1100" when you put on the brakes.

        Or Maybe Your Wife/Girlfriend's Name??

          I actually did have the XS11 brake/tail planned at one point. My wife says I have an LED addiction. I'll have to get the kitchen remodel pics taken and posted one of these days and show off my favorite part...DIY Warm White under cabinet lighting.
