Neons replacement

I originally had these neons around my engine. They were taken off a car modification I did and didn't like on the car. So I re-used them for the engine on the motorcycle for some ambient lighting.

The only problem is how bright they are, not very. So recently I moved them down to the lower frame to light the road under the bike at night. They seem to be pretty bright in the garage (which the camera does not show very well) and so I hope they look good on the road as well.

So in the dark garage they look good.

What I did was the neons came with their own hook ups to the positive terminal on the battery, so I mounted straight to the battery. Then the wire to the switch as an interupt so when the switch is off no power, on power and so fourth. The switch is an easy interupt for this use. I ran the wiring for the switch to the battery, ground and then to the neon positive. Finally placed the wiring under all the stuff under the seat and down on the frame wall, as seen in last photo. Then ran the neon power lines down the other side between the battery and the frame.

At the lowest section nearest the motor I placed some heat covering to protect the wiring before it reached the lower frame. Then I ziptied the neon strand to the frame.

It's really cheap and simple but gets the job done until I can get some more lights on the motor and other key places.

The switch I got was perfect with a screw on attachment base for use if you would drill a hole in something, but I didn't need all that.
