Title: I got Bored......
Post by: CairnsDuc on May 30, 2008, 01:21:17 AM
So I went a little silly with a Motorcycle LED kit

My main aim was to highlight the parts that make a Ducati Monster what it is, such as the SSS, The L twin and the trellis frame, I tried to hide the light sources as much as I could, a bit hard with very little fairing, but I managed to succeed I think.

Just allow the Camera makes the Led's look brighter than they are and the Flaring is also only visable through the Camera

Thanks for the Feedback, Wanted to try and avoid the Bling look that you see on some of the Land barges (HD's Etc) SO I tried like I say to highlight the Technical stuff, The Kit came from the USA from a Company known as http://www.customdynamics.com/motorcycle_lights.htm

I used the Micromagic LED's behind the Instruments to light up the fairing, just 2 of them, 1 stuck to the back of each guage, and they are tiny, less then 5mm  wide and 1 mm deep!

And the main LED's are a Sports bike Kit from the Stingerz range, I added some extra 3 LED's pieces so I could hide them down in the engine area.

I avoided the Flashing/strobing/multicolour crap, but hey, whatever works for you I suppose
