I have removed the reflectors on every single bike I owned. It's the first customization touch, and it's free. However, for the first time ever, I just couldn't make myself take the reflectors off the CB. Something about these ugly squared out, or perfectly round reflectors that screams back to an era that was very non-apologetic about its looks, which couldn't overshawdow the solid technology and performance. These bikes always seem to say "ya they had to slap those ugly things on me so I can be DOT approved, but it ain't stopping me from being cool." I also like that they're from an era where they just had to be there, were big and obnoxious, and no one had quite yet thought about making them more integrated to the look of the bike, and less obvious. They were in your face, just as they still are on the CB. My reflectors are staying.
