The motorcycle banks at an angle in order to maintain an adequate balance between the motorcycle and centrifugal force when it turns. This results in the following problems: 1) The motorcycle rider's visibility is reduced due to insufficient forward illumination. 2) Glare is projected onto oncoming drivers. This thesis is a report on the development of a device designed to prevent the above-mentioned problems so that the rider may drive his motorcycle safely at night.
