    Those look good! It's amazing how conspicuous even a little bit of it can be. A couple years ago I bought one of their bulk like 1/2 pound of scraps packs and used the cricut to cut out a BMW rondel for my AGV helmet, but that was white on white. My F800GS is basically pin striped in it, too. I originally bought the sheets of the black hexagons to do the Grom with, but then decided to do those in gold and went with the black ones for the helmet instead. I'm pretty tickled with how it came out.

    Edit: in case anyone is wanting to go ultra-hi viz here's that half pound of scrap - https://rydesafe.com/products/rydesafe-half-pound-bag-of-reflective-tape-8-oz

    Honestly with the black on black I forget that they're even there, though I should probably put more on like you did (if I can even find them, I put them on early last year).

    These are the ones I have, I like the longer strips as well to work with the helmet design.

    This is why I put the reflective rim tape on my wheels when they were off for tire mounting. I've gotten quite a few comments about how they "pop" when headlights hit them.

    Flash in early morning.

    Pretty sure it's forgivable.

    Pics have me confused with the different wheels/grille. Same truck? Did you get it?

    I know there are some fogger type products that are supposed to work well for cleaning out the smoke smells. Swap out the cabin air filter too, as I'm sure it's saturated.

    Congrats on the truck!
