• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

A very odd idea came to me...

Well; odder than is usual, anyway! :D
With the fixed cowling and bodywork of these bikes; would it be worthwhile to try and talk to a design engineer about the possibiliy of having adaptive headlights added to them?
(The ones that turn where you point the wheels...)
My thought process:
You've already got electrical inputs and outputs to the power steering; why not grab a signal from there, and route it up to some motors that could twist the headlights around a bit as needed?
...Just sayin'... :dontknow:
 
Really? Why?

Oh, I don't know. :dontknow:
Sounds like a lot of trouble with possibly minimal benefits. Reason - I have those on my car and to be honest do not see any difference, compared to the other car of mine that doesn't have it.

I agree, we have a car with this feature and I really don't notice any advantage.
 
Don't know..!!

does sound nice. But would add more things to go wrong. Running my fog and driving light low they light up the fringes pretty well. I'm picturing loose eyeballs shinning in different directions as you steer your roadster. But sure it could be done...go for it, it would be on the RT's only....:roflblack:

Reggy from Tricled has them for sale:

That is an idea but for now I'd settle for a Spyder that has been engineered to not go up in flames.

Bob, talk about nip it in the bud. She told u exactly what she thought of that idea!:D:D
