Mine is bright halloween orange didn't stop sh!thead from backing over it with a pickup in the parking lot though

And I ALWAYS wear my brain bucket, though I legally could get a helment exemption here in Texas. Though I don't think helments should be required (libertarian, remember?), I think you're abjectly stupid if you ride without one.

I can say, though, that since I got my loud ass pipes put on, I haven't had anyone try and change lanes into me. That happened all the time with the quieter stock pipes.

I've also heard it said that another key to safety can be wearing a loud shirt? One guy I know who used to ride said that's why he always wore tie dye on his bike

That's a pretty damn funny PSA btw
