Let's Ride!

Let's Ride!

2007 Star Stratoliner
1854cc (113 cubic inch) V-Twin

She is a joy to ride but the time has come to part with her. I am putting her up for sale tomorrow so I thought I would give her the royal treatment she deserves and send her away with an LP portrait. I will definitely hate to see her go, but after only riding a little over 4000 miles in 5 years and really needing the room in my garage to finish setting up my shop, I have decided that it is time.

I created a video to help show her off a bit and help with the sale as well. If you are interested in seeing more of the bike or the video, it WILL be posted to the following link when I get it completed: HERE.

Thanks for looking! :-)

Caution!

Caution!

Mad Scientist at work! ;-) No wait! Make that Evil Mad Scientist! >:)

R&D can be a blast and very frustrating at the same time! Nothing like chasing around some stray electrons trying to troubleshoot a problem! ;-) But, I wasn't about to let the electrons win! ;-)

Just a bit more testing on the new Acyrlic Light Wand (aka: V24 replacement). Still not quite happy with the light refraction characteristics of the acrylic rod, but I will figure it out. Also in the search for some better LEDs to use. :-)

At this point I have the electronic circuit completed with 12 selectable modes selectable by a rotary switch and both momentary and constant on switches.

The current modes are Red, Blue, Green, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, White, V24, Full Color Fade Slow, Full Color Fade Fast, Quick color Change, Blinking Color Change.

Hope to work out the final details and have it avialable on www.LightPaintingTools.com very soon! :-)

The Entity

The Entity

I think I am approaching a match on the texture of the acrylic rod used in the V24. On one side of this is an actual V24, on the other is the V24 rod that I created to match. What do you think? Is it live? Or is it Memorex? ;-) Is it a match? Can you guess which one is the real V24?

To make sure the test was comparable, I used an actual V24 base under each rod. I think I can work on finishing my design of the rest of the tool now. I have only to finalize the base and extactly what controls there will be along with how they will be mounted. The electronic design is already complete along with a protype circuit board!
