reflecting tape

[Snowman13]

Hi all,

Has anyone tried the 3m black reflective tape on the back portion of their saddlebags? Some of the BMW guys I know can buy their stuff from cyclegadget.com but what about fjr's? The black tape looks good during the daytime and lights up like spot lights at night when cars lights hit them. Any ideas? Thanks. Be safe.

+1. I put Alex's reflectives on the back of my 08 FJR. Perfect and definitely recommended.

+1 on this. I installed the bag stickers from Alex, and got a set of reflective decals on the side fairings that match the old style. I will post pictures later on. I'm at work right now.

here's the pictures I promissed..... Night time pictures speak volumes....

No comments about the mess of crap in my garage please. I gotta stack shit up to make plenty of room for the feejer! ( and yes that is 3 gallons of Rotella synthetic on the shelf back there.) I Like to be prepared...

+1 on Alex's stickers. Easy to install and bright at night.

I got a different set from premier cycle accessories. They're made out of the same stuff. I like them a lot.

Premier cycle is where I got the fairing decals too.

But is there any place to just buy the reflective tape in bulk so I can cut it myself?

Need to repair a few scratches from my riding faux pas's...

Worth the investment plus some. I have it on my saddle bags & liked it so much, I went to the autoparts store and got a role of inch-wide tape and added strips to my passenger backrest, luggage rack, and reflector stems.

clearly you didn't look at the link i provided. it has everything you need to make your own stuff with enough left over for another bike or two (just the back of the bags) or to do more stuff in other areas of the bike if so motivated.
