That is the thing about anything reflective, the light has to hit it. I have a solid black modular helmet now. I am hoping to get back in the saddle and wear it soon. I am planning on placing some reflective tape on it for night riding. kim

Seems they all have a cell phone glued to their face and for some reason love to ride 10 feet off my rear wheel. Going to start carrying some bricks, heII with ball bearings or rocks.

Posts: 1760 N Ms Gender:	Re: Reflective wheel tape Reply #10 - 10/01/10 at 11:19:58 Believe it or not, around here a lowered left arm with a gentle "brush back" motion from the hand nearly always works. Sometimes they even slam on the brakes, hang up, and get up on the wheel all serious looking. All at once, I'm the dangerous one.

Tap the brakes lightly a couple of times on the bike and they usualy move closer. Idjits.

Just wanted to add my pic. I purchased mine from eBay, and the seller would customize them with text. Mine have the Suzuki logo, as well as Suzuki printed on them. They are silver, so in the day, you can't really notice them. This is the guy I got mine from, elite_vinyl_designs.
