    Exactly. I look like a rolling highlighter on my motorcycle. Trust me it ain't for looks. Too many texting zombies.

    Amen. I have 123K miles on my 2004 TRD and don't drive it much, looks brand new (3rd vehicle). When I do take it out I notice EVERYONE texting on their GD phones. I drive like a grandma now. Ridiculous.

    My bike is matte black mostly. Put in all LEDs and extra tail lights in my hard bags.
    Also I put reflective tape on my helmet for riding at night. The coat I wear has reflective piping. I also use a bright red UA hoodie for my daily riding. matches the stripes on the bike :D


    I started yelling at people while driving or riding my motorcycle. I honestly don't care anymore, F them, at least they payed attention :)

    Loud pipes don't save lives, they make you look like those Harley tards trying to get attention. Aware riders save themselves the best they can.

    I would take that money and get yourself a nice steel bumper! Use what's left and grab yourself a drink.
