Fog & white road edge lines

[fish]

Rode into to town for coffee an hour before sun-up. Foggy.


2 hours later it was getting thicker for the ride home.



Sure do appreciate the white edge lines on a dark foggy ride !

That is one reason I added the extra LED fog lights. From your picture it looks like your headlight just hits the road dire try in front of you.

Get some fog lights that aim slightly to the left and down, and slightly to the right and down. It looks like you have plenty of places to install them.

This is what I installed on my wife's bike. The ones on my bike are more powerful.

You can also get them in amber if that is what you prefer.

Of course the camera photo only approximates what I'm seeing. I've plenty of light with my Piaggio's 55W running (low) beam - and its well aimed bucket. I'm lit up like a circus wagon near the scoot and in my driving distance. Unlike some riders I pass - I'm not doing 50mph through deer country in the dark on farm & forested roads.
It's oncoming headlights and lack of wiper blades on my helmet that are the difficulty - and where I use the 'fog stripe' to advantage..


I agree - better lights are really nice. My 2018 E4 Piaggio is like a night train compared to the 10 yr old Kymco's 35W fuzzy light bucket. That one stays home when fog is in the forecast.

That last picture is quite an improvement over the previous one! Is that the difference in technology or just camera angle?
