Abstract: A high intensity lamp system for a motorcycle incorporating a plurality of commercially available integral reflector halogen lamps within a crossmember element of a motorcycle triple tree assembly. A control system continually adjusts the power delivered to the lamps to maintain safe operating temperature to maximize bulb life at light intensity levels consistent with vehicular applications for headlighting applications. This is achieved using lamps not intended for sealed operation and the high shock and vibration environment of a vehicular or motorcycle application. A microprocessor-based digital control system of the preferred embodiment permits additional control and continual adjustment of lamp power to eliminate visible dimming of the lamps dependant on engine speed and state of the vehicle charging system, which dimming is evident in prior art use of high intensity lamps operating at light output levels reduced from maximum ratings for bulb life considerations.
