The Tail Light Emulator for Aprilia RS660, Tuono 660, RSV4, and Tuono V4 motorcycles is a component designed to bypass the rear light system, particularly in situations where you want to remove the rear light assembly, such as in competitions or for exclusive track use. This emulator tricks the bike’s electronics into thinking the rear light is still connected, preventing error warnings or electronic limitations from being triggered.
Advantages of the Rear Light Emulator
Removal of the rear light assembly: In competitions, it is common to remove the rear lights to lighten the bike and improve aerodynamic performance, reducing unnecessary drag.
Prevention of electronic errors: Removing the rear light without an emulator can trigger dashboard warning lights or cause electronic system malfunctions. The emulator prevents these issues, maintaining the integrity of the system.
Quick and non-invasive installation: The emulator is designed for easy and fast installation, without requiring permanent modifications to the bike’s original wiring. This allows for a quick restoration of the bike’s original setup, if necessary.
Function of the Rear Light Emulator
Modern motorcycles, such as the Aprilia RS660, Tuono 660, RSV4, and Tuono V4, are equipped with complex electronic systems that constantly monitor the integrity of the wiring and electrical components. Removing the rear light can generate error signals that could compromise the bike’s operation or trigger power limitations. The rear light emulator replicates the electrical signal that is normally sent by the rear light assembly, preventing the bike’s system from detecting the absence of the light. This is particularly useful in racing, where rear lights are not needed, and their removal helps reduce the overall weight of the bike and improve aerodynamic performance.
As with the side stand and rear brake emulators, the rear light emulator is mainly intended for racing or track use. Removing the rear lights for road use may be illegal in many jurisdictions, as the rear light is an essential component for road safety, making the bike visible to other vehicles. Additionally, removing the rear light without an emulator could cause malfunctions in other electronic systems, especially those connected to ABS or rider assistance systems. The emulator helps avoid these issues, ensuring that the bike’s electronics function correctly even without the rear light assembly.
In conclusion the Tail Light Emulator for Aprilia RS660, Tuono 660, RSV4, and Tuono V4 allows the removal of the rear light without generating electronic errors, helping to optimize the bike’s performance in competitive settings.
