Ok, my thoughts behind this;
1. It looks cool!
2. I really believe the yellow stands out from the white clutter.
3. I see it as a "tip of the cap" to a bygone time.
4. It's 100% legal in my state so why not...
5. It cost $2.59. I LOVE cheap mods that don't necessarily look cheap.
6. See number 1
As far as the specific product I used, I give it a 7 out of 10. I brushed it on with a foam brush and it dried with very tiny little bubbles. They are almost undetectable but nevertheless there.
Product was purchased at Michaels arts and crafts store.
Yes, no matter what anyone says your nighttime visibility is slightly reduced by going yellow. I chose to do only one coat which gives me the yellow look I want but has no real reduction in light throw. I see just fine at night and get the sense that the autos see me even better.
There are a few other products that can be used to accomplish this look. I chose the cheap route and I'm happy with the outcome.
I love the unique look and I think it fits perfect with my black CB!
Here's some cool bikes that make me love the look:
