Abstract
Shaped neon light spark plug connectors which include a continuous length of neon tubing fitted with electrodes at each end and configured to extend between and connect to the spark plug and coil of a motorcycle engine. The spark plug connectors are each characterized by a continuous, shaped neon tube light source that pulsates and flickers with operation of the engine at low engine speeds and displays a substantially continuous glow of a selected color at higher engine speeds. A specially designed jig is provided for bending the heated neon tubing into the desired configuration and fitting it between the spark plug and the coil locations. Included is a method for providing a continuous, shaped neon light spark plug-to-coil connector on a motorcycle engine, which method includes the steps of providing a jig for measuring, cutting and bending a heated neon light tube into a desired configuration and fitting the shaped tube between the coil and the spark plug connectors of a motorcycle; adding electrodes to each end of the neon tube and evacuating the tube; and attaching end connectors and boots on each end of the neon tube for electrical connection to the coil and spark plug terminals of the motorcycle engine.
