The blinkers are still on the wing ...

Im using my hands for now. I found a few things that might work. I located the bracket setup and hinge I want to use. Next, I just have to get the device that will perform the flip task and find a switch that matches my bike ;)

The idea is to have the plate in a legal position during the resting state of the motor. When the motor is activated, the plate moves to a position that is unreadable from any normal angle. This way, there is no worry of the motor failing and the plate hangs down unknown to me risking a ticket.

Im going to be incorporating a light-kill switch and a variable resistor knob for the headlights with the flip plate switch. I think Im going to have my dad custom fab me an aluminum bracket to attach to my handle bars so these switches are located on my left grip.

Back to the drawing board.
