Florida received the largest Federal share of High Speed Rail Funding in the nation earlier this year. The federal grant will go toward the development of a high-speed rail system in the state. Officials from our legislative governments have said that contributions from the Federal Government could only hope to supplement about 30% of the total project.

Unlike other storage companies around UAE, The Box gained success over a relatively short period of time. They say, that the key to their success is ‘thinking big’.

The Box, a famed storage facility in Abu Dhabi, has grown quite rapidly from a business that stored a couple of boxes in the backyard, to warehouses placed all over UAE. There is no doubt that this company has and will continue to be a success in the storage industry that has picked up pace recently.

The Box is famous among its customers. In fact, their customers were the first ones to spread the word about their company, regarding their excellent services.  But unlike other storage companies, The Box thought a head. They knew their potential long ago and realized that they would become huge and sought after some day. This lead to the creation of their Abu Dhabi website: www.storageinabudhabi.com. Apart from their customers generating leads, their website was there for them too. They used it to become visible globally, as well as acquire a name and a good amount of fame.

As described in their website, this company is serious about being progressive.

At last it is time for you to leave home and move to another city. This can be a pretty difficult task as you have to leave behind a lot, whether it is your friends and neighbors or the places that you have got sued to while you lived there. Moving house can turn into a real mess if you are not well organized. You can enlist the services of a luggage mover to have your luggage moved but driving your car from one location to another can be extremely unsafe and tiring especially if the distances are big. You might think it would be easier to drive down but having an auto shipping company do your auto moving for you. Then there are times when you need to have your auto moved to longer distances and you may get there by plane and need your vehicle there when you land. In such cases the auto shipping service can be really useful.

There are a lot of auto shipping companies that have got a good fleet of trailers and trucks and deal in auto moving. These auto transport companies will take your car and deliver it to your destination, safe and sound. Most of these companies operate on a big scale and can deliver your car just about any place that you would like whether it is at the national level or even international.

These auto moving companies give you great services. They take your car and put it in a trailer or truck. Alternatively you could also opt for car transport by train. Then they make sure your car gets to the destination that you would want. Auto shipping services include satellite tracking so you can keep track of where exactly your car has reached at any given point of time.

You are putting one of your most valuable assets in the hands of someone else who has to ensure you safety and reliability. So before you choose an auto shipping company, make sure that they provide you with the facility of satellite tracking and do not utilize the long time consuming system of terminals which are over loaded. They should offer you convenient booking from the internet and not require you to run to their office each time you want to place an order or make inquiries. The staff of the auto moving company should be courteous and cooperative so that your vehicle shipping goes through like a breeze. And they should be extremely concerned about the safety of your car.

Before you have the auto moving company take your car, make sure you remove any personal items from your car as they will not be responsible for any loose missing items it might hold. Make sure you have about a quarter tank of gas in your car so that the driver from the auto shipping company can drive it to the terminal. Note the state of your car by looking for scratches and dents. And the observation report the vehicle shipping company gives before they take the car must be verified by you. And when you finally get your car at the new location, check it completely before you sign the receipt and if there is any damage you can file a claim.

There are quite a few different auto moving companies to help you move your car from one location to another. Get quotes from some of the best auto shipping companies here and now!

News that as many as 3,700 British Airways staff will lose their jobs by next March is confirmation that the firm and the industry has been been hit badly by the global recession.

But workers in the sector should not be too down-hearted. According to Ian Partington, managing director of Simply Jobs Boards (www.simplygroup.net) there are still thousands of pilot jobs, aircraft engineer jobs and cabin crew jobs available worldwide.

He said that anyone fearing they were about to lose their job or who had already been made redundant could simply log onto the firm’s specialist aviation job boards and have instant access to more than a 1,000 vacancies. Airlines across the globe currently advertise positions on the site, giving workers access to the most up-to-date vacancies.

‘The worldwide economic crisis has hit the airline industry very hard, with companies such as BA, which relies heavily on business class travellers, faring particularly badly,’ Ian said. ‘However, despite the slowdown, some airlines are continuing to recruit and any pilot, aircraft engineer or cabin crew employee, whether they be from BA or another airline, who is made redundant should not despair.

”They should simply log on to our websites and use us to help them find alternative employment.

Earlier this month (July 15) British Airways boss Willie Walsh revealed that 3,700 staff will lose their jobs by next March on top of the 2,500 workers axed since last summer. He told shareholders at BA’s AGM in London: ‘There is no point trying to skirt around the fact that we need a fundamental change to our employee cost base, essential to our short-term survival and, more importantly, our long-term viability.’
Mr Walsh insisted he could implement the extra job cuts without the threat of strike action, dismissing suggestions that passengers could face a summer of strikes by cabin crew and check-in staff.
BA chairman Martin Broughton warned that the aviation industry was facing its ‘annus horribilis’ and the biggest crisis it had ever known as it swung ‘from record profits to record losses’.

Shareholders were met at the AGM in Westminster by a placard-waving demonstration by staff. Earlier, pilots at the airline accepted a 2.6 per cent pay cut as part of a package but the opposition from cabin crew remains strong and thousands of baggage handlers and check-in staff are opposed to the cost-cutting plans.

GCL Tuning – Want to improve your fuel economy? Chipping/Remapping cars is the latest idea. We tried it, and the results were great!

It wasn’t long ago that tuning engines was seen as a black art: the preserve of boy racers. Today it’s a different story. Chipping/Remapping your motor is no longer simply about boosting power. Some kits claim they can significantly improve fuel economy, too!

And Auto Express has put these eco-chips to the test, by fitting one in our long-term Ford S-MAX 2.0 TDCi. The results were impressive to say the least!

We devised a 68-mile round trip, covering both urban and motorway driving, and travelled it before and after the engine tweaks. We recorded a 14 per cent mpg improvement – enough to slash our annual fuel bill by £184, if we covered 12,000 miles a year.

The work was done by GCL Tuning, which offers a fully custom remap solution that doesn’t alter your car’s ECU just the software. With such a non-invasive’ technique, you plug a black box, programmed specifically for your model, into an underbonnet sensor and it starts working straight away.

It was this simplicity and flexability and custom tune plus the fact GCL offers software designed for economy, that led us to choose it ahead of all the others. It told us to expect mpg improvements of 10-16 per cent. We were intrigued.

We set off from Bury st edmunds to cambridge. Our destination was Alfa Sport LTD, an official GCL Tuning dealer which had agreed to fit the upgrade to our S-MAX and talk us through the process. But, of course, the journey wasn’t just about reaching cambridge on time; we were setting a benchmark mpg figure – one with which we could compare our return trip economy and so judge the effectiveness of GCL’s product. After driving as economically as possible we reached our destination. The trip computer was reading 45.8mpg, bettering even Ford’s official combined economy figure of 45.6mpg.

Managing director Gary Leverett immediately led us downstairs to show off his pride and joy… one of the most advanced rolling roads money can buy. The £85,000 kit was shipped over from Australia earlier this year.

It presented too good an opportunity to miss, so we decided to test the car’s power output before and after fitting the box. Although we weren’t looking to boost the bhp, increasing this is a side effect of economy chipping, as Busby told us: With an engine such as this, we usually see a 6-10bhp improvement. If you go for the performance chip, however, that can be as much as 55bhp.

Once the S-MAX had been backed into the garage and on to the rolling road, it was tied down securely. These straps can take up to five tonnes, so we should be safe, said Gary Leverett, technical manager at GCL. After three runs in third gear and two runs in fourth, the computer read-out informed us our S-MAX was producing a maximum of 151.8bhp Gary also stated the difference in tempreture and pressure can make upto 15 BHP difference.

That’s 15.8bhp more than the Ford’s official figure of 136bhp. This can be put down to the natural variation from engine to engine – and we must have had a particularly good one! Then it was time for the GCL Tuning touch.

If you thought this was the point when laptops and heavy-duty diagnostic kit would be strapped all over the car, you’d be wrong. The procedure is very simple .

With the economy chip, the power hike is simply a side effect of improving the engine’s efficiency, explained Gary Maximum torque moves lower down the rev range, so the car is easier to drive smoothly at lower rpm – which in turn improves fuel returns of upto 10MPG alone , Gary says with other modifications you can achive upto a huge 20MPG….

And he wasn’t wrong. On the trip home, changes in the motor’s torque characteristics were immediately apparent. Put simply, it made the car easier to drive in an economical way, letting us confidently cruise at 30mph in fourth gear. On arriving home, the average economy icon on the dash read 52.3mpg – a 6.5mpg improvement over the journey earlier in the day, on the same roads, with virtually identical traffic conditions.

So how can you squeeze this extra mileage from a motor that’s already noted for its efficiency? And if these engine settings are better, why didn’t the maker produce them this way in the first place? Dowd unravelled the mystery: “Production cars are designed to work anywhere in the world. Huge built-in tolerances allow for poor maintenance, low-grade fuel and ambient temperatures of -40oC to 50oC. In Turkey, for instance, the diesel is watered down by 10 per cent. But in the UK we have high-quality fuel, and temperatures that never get close to these extremes. So all we’re doing is tightening up the tolerances, shifting the torque characteristics and improving efficiency.

We’ve proved GCL’s product works, but are there any other advantages over rival engine upgrades? Well No!

However, there are always two sides to a coin – and economy chips do have their drawbacks. The biggest reservation motorists have about this technology is assuming that it will invalidate their car’s warranty, However unlike others GCL Tuning have fully backed warranty and we have product liability insurance in place up to the value of £2,000,000.

Another stumbling block is insuring a modified car. Often companies will void policies if they know the engine has been tinkered with – and only specialist outfits such as Adrian Flux will agree to offer you cover. and usually if it’s an economy chip rather than a performance one that’s fitted, it won’t affect your premium.

The popularity of these economy chips is growing as the price of fuel increases. A handful of franchised Mercedes dealers in Holland are now offering GCL Products as an optional extra, and Dowd expects a similar pattern to emerge in the UK – once the product becomes more established.

Gettysburg Bike Week brings Top Entertainment and Premier Vendors to Town

Once again, the historic town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, is hosting Gettysburg Bike Week.

The site of the famous Civil War battle and President Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address will come alive with the sound of motorcycle engines on July 9, 10 and 11.

During this period more than 30,000 motorcycles will roar into town prepared for three days of fun, partying, entertainment, shopping and camaraderie.

Scheduled entertainment includes Mollie Hatchet, the southern rock band out of Florida, a biker favorite. Also scheduled are Jimmie’s Chicken Shack, Back N Black, Smokin Gunnz, and Big Mike Griffin. There will be poker runs, tattoo contests, a burnout pit, bike show, bike games, and the “parade of chrome” through the city. There will be something for everyone.

As is always the case, the top motorcycle rallies attract the top motorcycle-related vendors and this one is no exception. One will be able to find t-shirts galore; leather garments, bags, and other leather goods; Native American pottery, jewelry, and crafts; after-market motorcycle stands; motorcycle trailers and side cars; and all kinds of parts, accessories, and services.

One of the more popular motorcycle accessories is LED Lights and one of the leading LED light vendors, Wyked Illuzionz, will (again) be in Gettysburg for the event.

Wyked Illuzionz sells and installs LED lights on motorcycles. They are a popular attraction at this event. Their home base is in Frederick County Maryland which is only 45 minutes from Gettysburg. In addition, their annual show schedule keeps them in the State of Pennsylvania for most of the season. Area motorcyclists cite the quality of their work and their constant accessibility as the primary reasons for their popularity. Quality LED products come with a lifetime warranty against LED failure; therefore, the location of the vendor is an important consideration when making such a purchase.

Following Gettysburg Bike Week, Wyked Illuzionz is scheduled to attend Roar on the Shore in Erie, PA from July 16-19.

This event is growing in popularity, as it combines the opportunity to visit one of our nation’s historical sites with the opportunity to “party with your peers”.

About Wyked Illuzionz: Wyked Illuzionz specializes in LED Lighting for Motorcycles. They attend many of the major motorcycle events educating motorcyclists on this important safety issue and on the benefits of quality motorcycle lighting products and professional installation. Additional information is available on their website.

Major Motorcycle Events Attract Major Talent and Premier Vendors

The 2009 Ohio Bike Week, which takes place in Sandusky, is scheduled for June 5th through the 14th . This event is considered to be a major event in the motorcycle world and usually attracts more than 75,000 attendees.

Its popularity, in part, is attributed to the fact that the rally coincides with the All Harley Drag Racing Association (AHDRA) Nationals at the Summit Motorsports Park in Norwalk, Ohio and the Ohio Bike Week venues offer an opportunity to meet some of the racers.

The Ohio Bike Week also gets to boast appearances by some major talent, including the Kentucky Headhunters, Confederate Railroad, The Werks, Empire Drift, Ekoostik Hookah, The Earthquaker and Jimmie Van Zant.

The event-filled ten days include a motorcycle parade, live entertainment throughout the city, battle of the bands, burn out pit, charity gambling, swap meet, bike shows, car show, motorcross races, charity rides, poker runs, bike builders, scavenger hunt, pig roast, biker games, contests, symposiums, women only ride, winery tour, cage fight, motorcycle derby, ball of steel, motorcycle stunt shows and on an on. Bikers can choose to stay busy from morning to night or simply relax on the shores of Sandusky Bay.

Major events like this also tend to feature some of the industry’s most popular vendors, such as last year’s popular LED light vendor, Wyked Illuzionz. Wyked Illuzionz, LED Lights for Motorcycles, will once again be located at the Roeder Harley Davidson site (although Roeder no longer owns the dealership, the building will be open, alive and kickin for bike week) and the parking lot will feature vendors, music, rides, and more.

This is a perfect time of year to visit Sandusky and you can mingle with fellow bikers, “party hearty”, ride the shore, and experience one of the best motorcycle rallies around. You can also use the opportunity to light up your bike or purchase any imaginable motorcycle accessories and apparel.

“Motorcycles, Metal and Mayhem” Event at the Westmoreland Fairgrounds Attracting Premier Vendors

From June 4th through the 7th, the Westmoreland Fairgrounds in Greensburg, Pennsylvania will be buzzing with the sounds of music, partying, motorcycles, laughter and plain old good times in the traditional biker fashion. This is the site of the first “Motorcycles, Metal and Mayhem” event.

Bag Lady Sue (a/k/a “The Bags”) is promoting this event and if anyone knows how to run a biker event, it’s her. Bags is a comedienne geared toward adult comedy. She is frequently booked as the headline entertainment at biker rallies all over the country. She is patriotic, protective, a child advocate and protector of the critters. She is a strong woman, a powerful friend, and a biker – the ideal candidate to promote a biker rally.

There will be loads of live entertainment at the event including bands such as Kentucky Headhunters, the Jasmine Cain band, Rebel Son, Navasoto-Rio, Big House Pete, Cam Shaft, Land Mynd, Trapline, Motorpsychos, As Fate Burns, and Project Morbid.

Dare devil riders from the Wall of Death will be there, as will Caroline Picard (the Cajun Queen) performing her comedy routine and, of course, Bag Lady Sue, the show promoter, will be on stage several times during the event doing her hysterical, mind-boggling, and totally outrageous comedy routine.

This is the first year for this event but it has drawn some of the top motorcycle vendors in the industry, including Wyked Illuzionz, the premier motorcycle LED light vendor. Wyked Illuzionz will be at the “Motorcycles, Metal and Mayhem” rally selling and installing LED lights on motorcycles. This is, therefore, an opportunity for locals and visitors who have been considering motorcycle LED lighting to purchase and/or have them installed by one of the industry best. This is not Wyked Illuzionz’ first trip to the Westmoreland Fairgrounds; they were there last year for the National Bikers Roundup.

Wyked Illuzionz will also have a second rig at the Ohio Bike Week from June 5th through June 14th and will be at Laconia Bike Week from June 13th through June 21st.

This event, “Motorcycles, Metal and Mayhem” is a fund raiser for Operation Troop Appreciation, a non-profit organization whose mission is to support our deployed troops by sending them much needed items and letting them know how much their efforts are appreciated by those of us at home.

June 4th through the 7th will be the perfect opportunity to party, light up your ride, laugh, and hang with the best while doing it all for a very good cause.

Reston, Virginia – May 27, 2009 – ZoomSafer broke out of stealth mode today by launching the company web site and announcing plans to deliver the world’s first mobile “mash-up” to prevent distracted driving.

With more and more drivers texting, emailing, Twittering, and Facebooking, our highways, and even our public transportation systems, are becoming increasingly dangerous. The proliferation of mobile phones, all-you-can-eat text and data plans, and an insatiable appetite to always feel connected has resulted in a very costly epidemic.

Different from legislative and big-brother-like approaches, ZoomSafer contextually integrates with a person’s social and communications networks allowing them to drive safer but still be connected to friends, family, and co-workers.

“I found myself sending texts while driving and making bad decisions behind the wheel. I was looking for a mobile software application that would help me focus on the road but still keep me connected to my family, business contacts and social networks,” explained Matt Howard, CMO and Co-Founder of ZoomSafer. “After months of research, I couldn’t find a solution, so I got together with Mike and we decided to build ZoomSafer.”

Founded in January 2009, ZoomSafer’s management team, including recently hired chief operating officer Michael Costello, has more than 50 years of combined experience and a track record of success in new ventures as well as larger, more established enterprises including Nextel, USi, Groove Networks, and Accenture. In March, the company also raised an initial round of financing, gaining commitments up to $500,000.

“Not only does our software remind you to drive safe, it automatically notifies others when you’re driving.” said Michael Riemer, CEO and Co-Founder of ZoomSafer. “The result is that you’re more focused when driving, and your friends are less likely to distract you with random texts or email messages.”

The beta version of ZoomSafer will be free to download beginning in August. Premium versions of ZoomSafer will be available via paid subscriptions. Our patent-pending solution is a “mash-up” of location services, call management services, social media, and voice services. Please visit www.zoomsafer.com to register for the beta.

One could argue that with a vehicle as good looking as an Aston Martin, there is little need to gild the lily, as it were. However, Nicholas David, a talented young British designer with an entrepreneurial vision, sees things differently. With several years experience gained whilst designing concept cars for some of the most prestigious studios in both Europe and the USA, he has developed a range of aftermarket parts and accessories, which present a unique offering to the Aston Martin owner.

The Vantage Collection™ enables the customization and enhancement of the Aston Martin Vantage, DB9 and DBS, with further models to follow. Designed and built to the highest quality by industry professionals,the carbon fibre body parts offer a weight saving functionality, whilst retaining a level of finesse in keeping with the style of the vehicle. A custom designed range of luxury lifestyle accessories contribute to an ever-expanding range of tempting goodies for the Aston Martin enthusiast.

As Creative Director of the company, Nicholas ensures that when it comes to the finer details, there is no compromise:

“Too many aftermarket parts out there lack the carefully designed details and flawless finish that concept cars showcase. In designing The Vantage Collection, I felt strongly that the quality of these added extras should complement and enhance the vehicle, not detract from it.”

Available online, and with worldwide shipping, the collection is easily accessible to all Aston Martin owners, and has already sparked interest from Aston Martin dealerships in the Los Angeles area, where Nicholas now resides.

Wyked Illuzionz Now Offering Lava Stingerz, Motorcycle LED Lights

Motorcycle LEDs are gaining in popularity, whether it be for beautification, uniqueness, personalization or safety, they are making their mark in the motorcycle industry.

Wyked Illuzionz, one the of premier motorcycle LED light vendors, has been professionally and successfully installing LED lights on motorcycles. and, since the launching of their website, they have been selling their products directly to the motorcycle community for “do-it-yourself” installations.

There are numerous sizes and shapes, pods and strips, and some so incredibly thin they can be hidden in even the most sleekly designed motorcycles. Their draw on the vehicle’s battery is next to nothing; they are waterproof; and will not vibrate off when properly installed, all factors contributing to their popularity.

Last year, the Stingerz line of motorcycle LED lights was introduced. Stingerz are highly flexible LED strips which can be curved and shaped to fit in places other motorcycle LED products can’t. Not only are they extremely versatile, but they are noticeably brighter than other brands of flexible lighting. Stingerz come in 3-LED strips, 9-LED strips, 12-LED strips, 24-LED strips, and 30-LED strips for motorcycles.

Now, the newest color addition to the Stingerz line is “lava”. Lava is a red and amber combination (first LED is red, second one is amber, third one is red, and so on).

The resulting effect is a lava-like color, as if to symbolize the motorcycle rising from the earth in a volcanic eruption, a somewhat foreboding image.

Stingerz are ideal for use on both sport and cruiser motorcycle models. They are sold in individual units and in kits. They come with factory-applied 3-M tape for ease of installation. Remote control units that work with Stingerz are also available. These remotes offer a range of additional functions such as strobe, fade, and flash. They also enable the owner to turn the Stingerz on from up to 100 feet away.

This new product is sure to catch the eye of the most discriminating motorcycle enthusiasts. This is the epitome of a hot performance.

Motorcycle LED lights make night riding safer and Wyked Illuzionz, LED Lights for Motorcycles, uses May of each year to spread that message.

May is Motorcycle Safety Awareness month and Maryland-based Wyked Illuzionz takes this opportunity each year to reach out to the community.

Motorcycles are smaller than other vehicles and, therefore, more difficult to see. Motorists need to be extra vigilant in looking for them and motorcyclists must do all they can to ensure they are seen. The roads are for all to use so everyone shares in the responsibility of keeping safety on top of the priority list when riding or driving.

Wyked Illuzionz sells and installs LED (light emitting diode) lights on motorcycles. They actively promote such lighting as a safety issue. Well lit motorcycles are easier to see at night so Wyked Illuzionz uses May of each year to launch a campaign to light up as many motorcycles as they can.

In June 2008 it became legal in Maryland, Wyked Illuzionz’ home state, to install certain LED lighting on motorcycles. Therefore, this year, Wyked Illuzionz is spending the entire month of May, Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month, in Maryland. Their goal each May is to light up as many motorcycles as possible, therefore, during this period they work extended hours to accommodate the schedules of their customers and they provide a mobile service to those that need it.

In addition, Wyked Illuzionz will be at Cycos Motorcycle Apparel In Gambrills, MD on May 2nd, Twisted Souls Motorcycle Club Blessing of the Bikes in Harmans, MD on May 3rd; Charm City Bike Fest at the American Legion Youth Camp in Cheltenham, MD on May 9th; ABATE of Maryland (Baltimore Chapter) Spring Bike Show in Parkton, MD on May 17th; and the Lineboro Volunteer Fire Department’s Motorcycle Rally in Lineboro, MD on May 23rd.

The Wyked Illuzionz motto is “Be Safe….Be Seen” and they are helping motorcyclists nationwide do just that.

Wyked Illuzionz also offers their “Do It Yourself” kits to safety conscious bikers, via their online store, at discounted rates during May and provides telephone support to them during the installation process.

Wyked Illuzionz is serious about the business of motorcycle safety.

(Note: The U.S. House of Representatives’ Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure passed H. Res. 269, “Supporting the goals of a motorcycle safety month.” The bill recognizes motorcycles as an important and contributing means of transportation. It encourages awareness of motorcycles and motorcycle safety among all road users, appropriate motorcycle training, and safe riding practices. It also supports the goals of a Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month. This bill will be heading to the House floor for a full vote.)

Looking for a way to reduce your carbon footprint?

NEWTON, IA (January 12, 2009) – Millions of Americans are looking for an alternative way to combat the rising cost of gas, in addition to reducing their carbon footprint. To calculate your footprint, go to http://green.yahoo.com/calculator. Major contributors to the greenhouse emissions include commuting to work, driving in general, and flying.

With the volatility of gas prices and a steady increase in worldwide greenhouse emissions, electric modes of transportation are an affordable alternative to traditional forms of travel. The X–Treme scooter XM–5000Li emits zero carbon emissions, resulting in cleaner air quality. It can also reduce our dependency on foreign oil consumption and it is significantly quieter than gas powered motorcycles.

The XM–5000Li, an electric moped/motorcycle capable of traveling 60 miles per hour, can operate for 90 miles on a single electrical charge as it is equipped with 21 lithium batteries. These batteries have a life cycle of 7 – 10 years and can be recharged up to 2000 times. Unlike most electric motorcycles on the road today, the lithium battery does not require daily charging.

Since weight distribution is an important factor with motorcycles and street bikes, the lithium batteries are located in a low position under the driver’s seat. This keeps the bike’s center of gravity close to the ground which gives the motorcycle and rider improved stability and control.

X–Treme Scooters’ new motorcycle, known as the XM–5000Li, features a new controller design not found on any bikes in its category today. It is equipped with front and rear hydraulic anti-lock disc brakes for maximum stopping power and safety.

Expected to sell in the $6,000 price range, the XM-5000 Li carries a full year warranty and a two year warranty on the batteries. Consult your state or local authorities as this model may qualify for an energy rebate.

The X–Treme XM–5000Li is street legal in all 50 states. Orders for this new and innovative electric moped/motorcycle are being taken now, and are available for dealer delivery. The XM5000 Li will be the featured attraction at the X-Treme Scooters booth 8601 at the Dealer Expo in Indianapolis, Lucas Oil Stadium Level One, from February 13^th – 15^th.

Wyked Illuzionz Announces the Affordable Alternative to Color-Changing Motorcycle LED Lights

There are some truly remarkable color-changing motorcycle LED lights on the market today.

The most extraordinary that comes to mind are the Magical Wizard Lights offered by Wyked Illuzionz. These remarkable Magical Wizard pods have seven colors in all – yellow, blue, green, purple, red, teal and white. Any single color can be displayed or all seven can be displayed in rotation as they slowly fade from one color to the next. In addition, Magical Wizard Lights are operated with a remote control unit (color command module) that provides three strobe speeds, a breathe function, and a color fade function that works up to 100’ away. These units are probably the latest and greatest in color changing technology.

Although Magical Wizard Lights are well worth the money you would spend on them, there is a significantly lower priced alternative on the market today, also offered by Wyked Illuzionz; Psycho Lights. Psycho Lights are also color-changing motorcycle LED lights. These color-changing LEDs are totally wild. The primary colors are green, blue and red and the secondary colors are amber, white, teal and purple. These LEDs pulse, fade and sequence but in no predictable order. You cannot select a single color, choose how they will display, or operate them with a remote control unit but they are color-changing LEDs none the less and they are pretty amazing. These units are less than half the price of the Magical Wizard Lights and therefore offer a very affordable alternative to motorcyclists wanting color changing LED lights for their motorcycles during these tough economic times.

Where there’s a will there’s a way and Psycho Lights are it!

Wyked Illuzionz, the Maryland-based motorcycle LED light company, has been increasingly growing in popularity over the past several years and now they have two more “successes” under their belt.

Cycle Promotions USA of Daytona Beach, FL is a highly experienced motorcycle events production company. They plan, organize, and promote premier motorcycle events at some of the top venues in the nation. Their reputation and experience within the industry enables them to obtain some of the most talented bike builders and motorcycle-related entertainers available today.

January 3-4, 2009 Cycle Promotions held the Mid-Atlantic Motorcycle Spectacular at the Dulles Expo Center in Chantilly, Virginia, the second largest exhibit hall in the Washington D.C. metropolitan area.

January 10-11, 2009 they organized the New Jersey Motorcycle Spectacular at the Garden State Exhibit Center in Somerset, New Jersey, one of central New Jersey’s largest venues.

Cycle promotions’ status in the industry also facilitates attendance by some of the top vendors of motorcycle related goods and services, including Wyked Illuzionz.

Wyked Illuzionz was the exclusive motorcycle LED light vendor at these events. Their products, expertise and reputation resulted in an increased customer base for them as a result of their participation. Wyked Illuzionz displayed an array of motorcycle LED lights. Their LED pods, LED strips, and “do it yourself” motorcycle LED kits were popular items. They also had the popular “Stingerz;” highly flexible, extremely versatile, and extraordinarily bright LED strips. Magical Wizard Lights, the latest in color-changing technology also attracted a lot of interest. Wyked Illuzionz also displayed remote control units that work with their lighting products which make their motorcycle LED lights flash, strobe, fade and breathe. There was certainly no lack of “attention-grabbing” merchandise.

Even though the temperatures dipped below the freezing, mark, winter was no deterrent for these bikers at heart. The installation of LED lights on motorcycles makes for the perfect winter project.
