Abstract
A light bar assembly for use on a motorcycle includes a housing having a pair of elongate cavities having reflective surfaces and arranged end to end and each being open at one side for defining a generally horizontally extending axis. A light transmitting lens covers each side opening and a lamp assembly is disposed in each cavity between the lens and the reflective surfaces and includes a plurality of lamps spaced apart in horizontal alignment in parallelism with the axis and an elongate diffuser is disposed between the lamp assembly and the lens. An elongate reflector is disposed between each lamp assembly and a central portion of each lens and in parallel with the axis for covering the central portion of each lens and the diffuser and for reflecting a portion of the light transmitted by the lamps backwardly onto the reflective surfaces for redirection through the diffuser and the uncovered portions of the lens. The light bar assembly is mounted by means of brackets and clamps on a pair of parallel horizontally extending rails fixed to the motorcycle.
