Just wanted to show a picture of my scooter. I completely decked it out with a bunch of reflective tape and reflectors. I noticed during the day, people ahead of me had a hard time seeing me so I added the yellow reflective tape around my headlights. Since then, I've been noticed a lot more. Also, I placed auxilary lights below the handlebars linked to a switch I can turn on if I'm afraid someone doesn't see me. I also added a rear LED blinking brake light to the back of my cargo box for an elevated and dynamic light source to increase noticeability from behind while braking. www.customdynamics.com/knight_rider_led_light_bar.htmUnfortunately, it only works while braking and doesn't work while not braking. In addition, I put reflective tape on my yellow helmet and wear a saftey orange vest while riding to further increase visibility. Visibility is the number one cause of motorcycle wrecks.

Nice. I have one of those LED brake light units on mine too. it flahses when I use the brakes and slow down. I am thinking about adding some more LED flex ;light strips too.
I'd probably replace the OEM valve stems as soon as possible with better valve stems. The rubber sort of almost deteriorates while you watch.
