I have a fairly short steep hill to get over and I want to do that as quick as I can since it will be dark. I don't want anyone coming up behind me too fast with that tiny taillight. I've got a hard trunk I just bought that's already wired for lights, but that's another project for another time. This sprocket project will be next on the list after my HID headlight issue is taken care of.
Want to be more visible after dark ? Wal Mart has 3M reflective tape that works great. Red on the back of the trunk, yellow on the sides and silver/white on the front of anything facing forward.
