www.cyclegadgets.com (http://www.cyclegadgets.com) finally added the 3m kit for the R1200ST. I got mine Friday and added it. I love it! I do alot of night riding and it really helps with the rear visability on the bike. This stuff is bitching! I had it and the Brake! on the R. Brake! is working on the ST and I'm in weekly contact with them. They might give me one so I'll quit hassling them!
So as they say a picture is worth a thousand words, I'll shut up now.

That may get their attention, unless they've been boozin. Only a small percentage of car-bike "incidents" are rear-enders to the bike but if it happens to you, then it would be 100%. It's better to tilt the odds in your favor. I'm liking the look.

Roger - looks great! Is that the stuff that is black in daylight and bright as hell at night?
Panda butt, very funny. I'm with Bob, let's see a pic in the daylight.

Matches the case in the daylight, you can tell something is there, but very unobtrusive.
I'll post a pic in the daylight when I get home.
Panda Butt!!! I like it! ..Tessie the ST has a panda butt:)

Ok, now I'm impressed. Can you buy sheets of the stuff, and, if so, where?
Oh yeah, Tessie does have quite the ass on her...

It's a strobe brake LED light. UPS delivered mine yesterday. Installation planned for the weekend.

Acacia was my roomy on the Hill Country Ride. He had some killer reflective pieces on his bike in red & white that are the same thing truckers use on their big rigs. Said he got it at Walmart. Extremely reflective, I will be looking to put some red pieces on back to compliment the reflective white.
On another forum a rider said a LEO gave some grief over having so much reflective white stuff on back, but as Acacia told me, truckers use both red & white on back.

I prefer the large orange plastic triangles, one on each side, one in the rear.
Scares away those who don't mind running over motorcycles but are afraid of combines. And they really look neat.
