There are headlights. Well sort of. Halogen kitchen lights in the number boards if you look closer. And the Filth? Virtually every Dice-style chopper we see in the States doesn't even have a front brake. G
Well, I run no mirrors/signals/front brake on one of my bikes and never had any trouble in the Detroit area, but I have the feeling if I didn't have a headlight on there they'd see me coming and hit those red & blues pretty quick.
If I was to run a dirt tracker for the street I'd want it with no light. I'll get to it I'm sure, the bike I'm doing now has a ST aesthetic going on.
In the UK where it is increasingly problematic to build specials, it is however still legally possible to have NO headlight if your bike is registered with a 'daylight MOT' - but you do have to be back indoors by tea time. BP
lovely lid, lovely bikes!!.
ReplyDeletePretty cool. I couldn't get away with that too long here in the states though, numbers & no headlight attracts the Filth.
