My neighbor usually does off-road tires and Nelson Rigg products, so this is the first time he's asked me to help with something.
I'm pretty stealth for the most part too. My Givi trunks have subtle reflective striping. My go-to box is this E36, with a band of black Scotchlite tape around the middle. It reflects white, and is glowing in this pic with the sunset hitting it. On my bigger Givi boxes with fake taillights, I replaced the non-reflective chrome cardboard they put uner the red lenses with Scotchlite, so they're still fake, but at least they are now reflectors.
As for the helmet light, I always run a Brake Free light on the back of mine. No Bluetooth or any connection to the bike. It's got a g-meter inside, and goes from a taillight to a much brighter brake light under deceleration, either engine or regular braking. Very effective, puts a light up high in view of the cars behind me, and attaches to small mounting tabs on the back of each of my helmets, so I attach it to whichever I'm going to wear.
