Found this site tonight. Going to try the black tape. Seen a few of you say it was good stuff. But they had a bunch of pretty cool stuff. Figured I would share. I honestly never considered goggling it before. LoL
Yup good stuff... almost blindingly visible at night. I put some on the V500 and had Co workers follow me. Their only comment was.."Definitely can't use the brights for too long behind you".

I got the black. Not a "lot" of it in a package . . but it seems to work ok. One thing about this place, even at night it is so bright you barley notice reflectors around the house.
That is my lid setting in the back yard with the flash hitting it. ((-; Seems to work ok.

that looks awesome. I want to wrap my whole bike in this stuff! Does it stick pretty well, or does it seem to lose some adhesion? How long have you been running with it?
Against my better judgment, or better yet lack thereof (since it's almost 3AM my time), I'll ask this anyway.
On the website, is it "reflective black" that looks black during the day and bright white in lights? Or "reflective white" since it reflects white at night? I'd be interested in this too, I'll wrap my license plate and schoolbag in it, maybe even get some and make stripes on my wheels...

I am just trying it out. Well see how long it lasts. In FL, it does not take long for the Sun to kill things like tape when you commute and park in it every day.
It is black, and reflects white in head lights. I ride every day, ride in rain, storms & lighting .. but have done very little night riding. No reason . .in fact, that sums it up, I just have had no real reason. (-; So my reviews are still lingering . . my feeling is that every little thing helps, and it was a way to add a little viability at night without messing up the look of the bike to much. (-;
I am sure there are lots of other options . .just seemed like a cool web site.

Thanks for putting the address, Elwood. I had in mind buying something like this, and this is perfect.

Just a clarification
So, just a clarification before I think about ordering some of this stuff.
This tape is black in color normally, but when light hits it, it reflects in a white color?
bingo!
bingo!

I think I'll order me some
I think I'll order me some then. I'm very curious how it works though. I have some guesses, but I think this will merit some internet research.
