Motorcycle Blind Spot Detection system MT-01
Motorcycles move in traffic with limited protection and little room for error. Side traffic, rear vehicles, and lane changes can create risk when a rider cannot clearly see what is nearby. NSC highlights that deaths related to motorcycle accidents have increased by 24%. That is why you need a modern solution to keep you safe on your motorcycle rides.
Our MT-01 aftermarket motorcycle blind spot detection uses 24GHz millimeter-wave radar. It can detect vehicles approaching from your left, right, and rear. Moreover, it provides a simple warning setup for riders who need help noticing nearby traffic during normal riding and lane changes. In short, it is a complete solution with radar, LED indicator lights, an accessory kit, and a detailed instruction manual.
Features of MT-01 Motorcycle Blind Spot Detection
How the Aftermarket Motorcycle Blind Spot Detection Prevents Accidents
The MT-01 monitors vehicles entering your motorcycle’s blind spot area. It gives a light signal to the rider if it detects any vehicles. When a target approaches from the left, the left LED flashes. Similarly, when a target approaches from the right, the right LED flashes. Both lights flash together when a target approaches from directly behind. So, you can always stay updated on your surroundings.
The system is designed to detect vehicle movement and remind the rider when a target enters the monitored area. That makes it useful for blind spot awareness during traffic movement and lane changing.
Key Features of the Aftermarket Motorcycle Blind Spot Detection
The MT-01 motorcycle blind spot radar system offers some valuable features that can come in handy on busy highways and motorways. Here are some of its primary features:
1. Real-time Vehicle Detection
The MT-01 detects vehicles in real time. It transmits and receives microwave signals. This way, it can perceive the approach and departure of a target. The system monitors nearby movement and responds when a vehicle enters the detection area.
2. Dual-Side Blind Spot Monitoring
The system checks both the left and right sides of the motorcycles. It can monitor the movement of targets approaching from both sides and behind the rear. This gives you good area coverage during traffic movement.
3. Visual LED Warning Alerts
The LED indicator lights provide the warning signal. The lights stay on or flash according to the target position and detection status.
4. Rear Vehicle Detection
The rear blind spot can be very dangerous. That is why our motorcycle blind spot detection kit offers real-time warning from both LED lights simultaneously when a target enters your rear blind spot. These lights keep flashing until the target leaves the danger zone. This gives the rider a clear alert for rear traffic.
5. IP67 Waterproof Protection
Our MT-01 system comes with an IP67 waterproof rating. This makes the system suitable for use in different weather conditions, including rain.
6. High-Speed Detection
The aftermarket motorcycle blind spot detection system offers a maximum detection speed of 180 km/h. Also, it has a range accuracy of ±0.7 meters and speed accuracy of ±2.5 km/h. The trigger speed is 2.5 km/h. So, you can monitor all vehicles with minimal to zero false alarms.

Functions of the Motorcycle Blind Spot Detection
The MT-01 works as a warning system for nearby vehicles. It supports blind spot monitoring, lane change assistance, close-range trigger warning, and left/right side vehicle alerts. Let’s look at these functions in detail:
1. Blind Spot Detection (BSD)
The MT-01 covers the area from 0 to 8m in your blind spots. This means you will never miss any vehicle entering your close proximity. The system closely monitors the zone for nearby vehicles before triggering an alert.
2. Lane Change Assistance (LCA)
The motorcycle lane change assist system’s detection range is 8 to 22 m. The trigger alarm works when the minimum approach speed reaches 10 km/h, based on the speed difference between the target and the radar. This can help, especially when you are changing lanes but cannot see your blind spots.
3. Close-Range Trigger Warning
Close-range trigger warning is one of the primary functions of the MT-01 system. When a target enters the detection area and meets the required speed condition, the LED warning responds. This gives the rider a direct signal in nearby traffic.
4. Left/Right Side Vehicle Alerts
The left and right LED indicator lights show the warning position. A target approaching from the left activates the left light. A target approaching from the right activates the right light. When the target approaches from behind and both sides, both lights flash at the same time.

Installation Guide for MT-01 Motorcycle Blind Spot Detection
You can easily install our MT-01 system. All the key steps are mentioned with a detailed diagram in the product manual. But here’s an overview of the entire installation process:
Step 1: Mount Radar Sensors
First, mount the radar at the center of your motorcycle using the universal mounting bracket. The mounting height should be 400 to 1000 mm from the ground. Also, the radar should be perpendicular to the ground and parallel to the rear of the vehicle.
Step 2: Install LED Warning Indicators
Now, install the LED indicator lights according to the left and right markings. The lights are used to show the target warning position. So, make sure the indicator placement matches the installation signs.
Step 3: Power Wiring
Next, connect the system to a 12V DC regulated power supply. You can find the wiring diagram for the indicator light connection, motorcycle wiring harness, GND, and ACC in the manual. However, it is important to keep the wiring secure during installation.
Step 4: Test
Lastly, it’s time to test. Make sure the environment is as spacious as possible and free from obstructions within the radar beam range. Check whether the left and right indicator lights show correctly and whether the system responds as expected. If the setup is correct, the lights should match the detected target position.
Pro Tips for Optimal Installation
You can use these tips to ensure a clean installation and avoid any errors:
- Keep the radar cover clean during installation.
- Do not deform, squeeze, knock, or disassemble the radar.
- Keep the device away from high-power electrical equipment and motors with strong magnetic field interference.
