If I blip my throttle, the light always changes. I'm gonna keep doing what works.
im not sure a harley idles?
I blip the throttle and dump the clutch; that works too.
Seems like all of this will be in vain over the next four or five years... it seems like all across the country, cities are going to the optical detectors anyhow. Cheaper, faster, and they don't have to divert traffic nearly as much.
Yeah, if the bike dies the light will instantly turn green. It will also turn green faster if you get tired of waiting and you put it in neutral.
Not going to get into the science of it, but blipping the throttle may actually create more, or stronger magnetic fields from the ignition system, which could disrupt the magnetic field from the traffic sensor. I dont know if thats true or helps, but maybe.
I blip my throttle because I love the sound of my bike as much as most love their coffee. It was my understanding from taking my Motor cycle safety refresher class this summer that a law like this was already in place for Oklahoma.
My Harley does not always trip lights and I ride without my helmet because I live in the land of the free and home of the brave thanks to a state that doesn't trample on me.
If you don't ride a bike, keep your opinion to yourself, don't force your beliefs to me and I won't comment about your Prius.
As for me, my Harley, and my wife, we'll cruise right by you and wish you well!
