ABSTRACT:
A cornering light system has a left beam and a right beam, each having a novel combination of cross sectional shape and orientation with respect to the vehicle. The cross sectional shape and orientation used have been found to provide optimum illumination of the roadway in the direction of turn. A two-wheeled vehicle necessarily leans toward the inside of the turn when cornering. As the vehicle tilts the appropriate beam is tilted into an efficient orientation for illuminating the roadway. An electrical switch activated by tilt of the vehicle is provided to operate the appropriate beam only when the vehicle is actually cornering.
