If you want to stay all black you may wish to consider "Black Reflective Tape" Yes, its black but reflects white! So it shows up great at night. I first saw it on a friend's BMW. He applied them to the back of his black saddlebags. You couldn't see them in daylight but the reflected bright white when headlights illuminated them from begind. Here's a ULR to helmet tape:Pinhy said:i hear you on this one. i have a black 3/4 helmet with face shield. will be getting a black bike.
i want to look matched when riding, but have to consider safety, especially when riding at night. i think when i get a real riding jacket i will get one that is black and another bright color, and then use that color as an accent in different parts of anything i wear. i dont think i am going to do anything to the helmet though.
on a street bike, bright colors seem to fit right, but on a black cruiser, its hard to get away form just doing everything black!
