Germantown, WI, July 20, 2016 – J.W. Speaker Corporation has launched the world's first dynamically "adaptive" motorcycle headlight for the aftermarket, the Model 8790 Adaptive Series™ low beam LED headlight. This 7" round sized LED headlight addresses a longstanding shortcoming with motorcycle lighting at night, that is good visibility while cornering, by filling in the void of the light to the left or right of the motorcycle. The unit's advanced electronics and embedded sensors calculate bank angles on a real-time basis, automatically directing a light array angling up or down in the foreground as the motorcycle leans. Additionally, the Model 8790 Adaptive Series headlight intelligently "tunes" low beam and banking optics in a way that maximizes visibility in corners.
As a result, J.W. Speaker has solved a fundamental problem of night-time visibility that current aftermarket and OEM motorcycle headlights are not able to address, delivering a technological breakthrough that dramatically improves operator comfort and safety.
Tim Speaker, Co-President of J.W. Speaker Corporation explains, "Our focus on innovation, particularly for the motorcycle industry where we have established ourselves as a market leader in LED lighting technology, has resulted in a breakthrough already recognized by OEMs as a 'must-have' moving forward. The exciting opportunity here for J.W. Speaker and our distribution partners is to retrofit millions of motorcycles with our Model 8790 Adaptive Series LED headlights, and in doing so, set a new standard for exceptional night-time visibility."
The Model 8790 Adaptive Seires headlight platform features J.W. Speaker's innovative low beam solid optic technology and ComfortLite™ high beam providing best-in-class foreground illumination and light above the horizon. The unit is designed as a plug & play solution for a wide range of 7" round motorcycle mounting buckets.
