Disclaimer: I am a performance baised guy, my 363whp S13 Silvia is primer gray. This idea should be NO representation of my thoughts of moto, or performance. I am a performance over pretty guy ALL THE WAY!
So I have been kicking around and idea for the past... oh year or so. It came to me when I was out riding with some stunter guys from work, with all the LED lights under their fairings. So here it goes....
The valve cap on my rear wheel is steel, thus would trigger a magnet switch each time it passes. Much like a trigger wheel ignition system. But rather then telling a coil to fire, it fires a strobe light near the rear wheel. This means every time the valve steam passes the trigger, one full rotation of the wheel, the strobe would fire. As you speed up, the strobe fires faster and faster each time that same valve passes the trigger. This would make the wheel apear to be standing still reguardless of the speed at which you are traveling.
Flame away ;D
