Hey Delta One, Where did you get the pic of that helmet. I was looking for one but couldn't find that color anywhere. When I asked for that color the salesman laughed at me like I was kidding. Seems like not a bad idea to me. If you could tell me the maker or a website, I would appreciate it! Thanks |

Its a scorpion exo 700 hi viz/neon yellow. I ride in a shark and a scorpion and I like the scorpion more. check out some of the sponsors one of them is bound to carry scorpion lids, they are becoming popular now. if not PM me and I can direct you to some too. |

as much as I poke fun at you guys it is a good idea. I just can't make myself do it... but I did put one those super reflective stickers on the back of each of my lids. I cant remember the company but still have the receipt for it somewhere. they made American flags in day glow reflective material so I bought a few. |

Love the Hi Viz stuff. It all helps. Hope the "do not text while driving" laws make a difference in 2010. B |

You can get BLACK reflective tape, reflects white when headlights hit it. 3m and one other company make it, my Schuberth has their logo on the back of the black helmet in black reflective stuff. My tourmaster jacket and pants are gray and black and have high vis white reflectors all over them and I have a white bike. I should be fairly well set for night time use, daytime is always a gamble. |

Thanks Delta. No offense taken by your comments. I had a real close call in the daylight many years ago and it made me think this stuff is worth it. The guy in a car never saw me and missed hitting me by inches. Thanks again for the info. |

Sure thing Jwey. PM me for more detail info if you want or need it. in all honesty I don't have the guts to wear it to school, (because I am back in college again). so you are smarter than I am because I put fashion before safety. I ATGATT and have reflective bits here and there so I'm not all dumb (leg armor under my jeans even)... but my next high viz purchase will be that icon backpack that straps on like a vest with arm straps too. making neon orange look cool. |
