Hi chester240, I'd like to be helpful and constructive.
To be honest, I don't think this idea has merit. Of course it's possible to do this, but the reason it isn't offered on all bikes is that there isn't demand for this feature on all bikes. The added utility is marginal, and comes with R&D and production costs, which may only be justified on higher end models which can command a higher price in the market. I think you'd be better off with a bike that already comes with cruise control, if that's what you really want.
There are possible engineering and safety issues with this electronic solution. It hasn't been tested and approved by authorised regulatory bodies, and I'm not sure it's wise to proffer this as a home brew solution. If you'd like feedback on it, perhaps take it up with the manufacturers themselves.
My suggestion is this: take your Arduino and motorisation skills, and devise a method to save millions of motorcyclists' lives, instead. Design and make an automatic wiper that fits onto a helmet's visor. Every year millions of motorcyclists die when it starts to rain. This is a tragedy, and you with your skills can surely step in here and put a stop to this menace, once and for all. Put up a Gofundme right away, get those preorders in, and get to work on it. I apologise for any spelling and grammatical errors in this post. I will come back and revise it as many times as necessary. Good luck. |

It’s clever, interesting, seems well executed (by yourself) and you didn’t need to scam the public crowdfund to make it. Great stuff. However, your insurer would deny all liability if you crashed, or even if someone crashed into you. There’s a reason you haven’t told them.
Approval for road use would be an expensive exercise I’ll bet, and marketing the device without approval puts you at huge risk of being sued should someone else decide, rightly or wrongly, that your design caused or contributed to an accident.
I’ve never had a problem with the throttle hand. The clutch hand though… sometimes ‘Ouch!’
Firmly, no. Well done though. Have fun. Don’t die. |

Pretty sure headfirst into a boulder with an impact that split the helmet in half and gave him a skull fracture wasn't particularly affected by the camera.

No one donated.
People want the free stuf and knowledge but no support in return.
But the older code and wiring diagrams along with stl files for 3d print are all there. I have not added anything new for the last two years. ____________________ Nobody.
