might not be enough at times, years ago I had a Pop up Katana with a steel frame & it wouldn't trigger many lights so a strip of metal may not be enough in many cases, especially as many bikes are nearly all ali these days

This solution worked for me when I had a bike. A bit inconvenient at times but can be done without much effort. Next time you're stuck, pull out of he stand and let it touch the road.

The tip about microwave magnets is good. They are a very strong magnet with a large magnetic feild around them. Bigger than the neodium hard drive magnets, far stronger than speaker magnets. You will find two in a microwave oven around the magnetron. Do not break the pink ceramic parts on the ends of the magnetron, they contain Berillium (sp?) which is a long term danger if you breathe the dust or chips in.
If its a older microwave, you can bash the transformer apart and remove the two Copper coils that weigh about a Kg and will get you $5+ for each them at a scrapmetal yard. You will need more than 1 Kg of Copper to sell though.
I could sell you a couple of magnets for $4, $2 each.

I flick my starter motor whilst stationary on the pads and that has only failed at a couple of aucklands lightsmand id stop at more lights per day than just about everyone on a scooter.
