    I don't have a lot of Hi Vis stuff

    But I like to be seen. I have added the LED low beams, 960s, and LED running lights for the front. I have added the extra 4 red LED turn signal kit, Hiperlights, strip LEDs on the mirrors just in case they miss the OEM turn signals, strobe added brake light and the Superbrite LED brake light bulbs bulbs that flash as the brake light. If they can't see that, then there is not much hope.


    BTW---with my Harleys it was about adding chrome. With the B, it is about adding lights.

    Looks fantastic, love the lights.

    I just received in the mail on Friday a Hi Vis. Tourmaster Transitions 3 jacket, my Christmas gift from my wife. I really wanted the black version of this jacket, but there was none to be found in my size 3xl. I did though come across the Hi Vis. version in 3xl at a seal of a deal, so I said what the hell I'll see if I like Hi Vis. Well let me say this is a really nice 3 season jacket and the Hi Vis. Is the way to go. If the cagers don't see me now they shouldn't be driving.

    I've gone back to a fluro vest over my riding jacket, I guess it's a mental thing to get over (looking like an electric strawberry) but i'm getting too old not to take every advantage, and there are too many idiots in tin tops on our roads these days.

    I think I have 12 helmets ... 3 are yellow. I wear the yellow helmets most of the time (I always wear a helmet). And, I have several yellow, or light colored leather and textile jackets that I wear.

    I have extremely bright LED driving lights from EC and an additional very bright running/brake/blinker LED from Whelen above the license plate on the rear. I like both a great deal.

    Even when I'm on the HD Street Glide, I wear my yellow helmets. Plus, I have LED BIGHT amber running lights on that beast as well as LEDs on the back. All from Custom Dynamics. Great stuff!

Not into those items so much anymore. I will end with this... ATGATT
    the longer i'm on a metric, the more i'm getting away from riding "naked".

    i rarely drink any more, no reason to help people run me down.

    and since you can "wrap" a bike in led's, it doesn't seem to matter, people will still NOT see you.

    time to graduate to ATGATT
