Question:

I need a source for motorcycle/scooter parts to complete a 300mpg vehicle design.?

Regular parts suppliers have things like replacement headlight bulbs. I need a source for the complete motorcycle headlamp assembly that I can utilize in my design. I also need to be able to buy in bulk to sell multiple units.Items needed: headlight assembly, turn signals, turn signal switch, brake light assembly, electric brake light switch (turning brake light on as brake handle is depressed, not hydraulic).I‘m looking for modern styled parts that I can incorporate into custom molded composite fairings.Thank you for your answers!

Answer:

Jeff, For your prototype vehicle, just use parts from a motorcycle wrecking yard. You'll save money and not be out as much in the long run. Some of the current touring fairings are about as aerodynamic as you can get If you plan to run two front wheels, a hydraulic braking system will be lighter and easier to build, not to mention you can incorporate all brakes into a single hydraulic foot operated unit. Be sure to use double flares on steel lines for safety.
