An oscillating headlight assembly for a motorcycle. A light assemblage is provided that contains a light source, wherein the light source produces a beam of light. At least one pivot pin couples the light assemblage to the motorcycle. A drive wheel is provided that is rotated by an electric motor. A linkage is attached to the drive wheel at an eccentric point. The linkage engages said light assemblage. When the drive wheel is rotated by the electric motor, the linkage causes the light assemblage to oscillate about the pivot pins through a range of motion. The result is a head light with a beam of light that sweeps back and forth while the motorcycle is in operation. This makes the motorcycle much more visible to other vehicles that share the road.
