After completing a 15 day night challenge so I can work on getting systems in place to see and be seen, these are all the things I use to stay visible and safe while riding at night.

Hi-vis stickers for rims are also nice, you are more visible from the side and in turns. That light's on gloves are smart, and helmet light is cool AF. I have cold neon light on one of my helmets for night riding, and I think I will put additional red lights under sub frame to light up when I'm breaking. Only thing that I really want is moooaaaarrr light up front. I like to ride on forrest and back roads with no street lights and I think my bike is lacking in this department.

Great video Doodle! Visibility at night is key. I added more side reflectors to my Tiger 1200 because it is Jet Black and I felt side visibility was minimal especially when the side panniers eclipsed the rear side reflectors. Front and rear no problem. All my riding gear has reflective material. I'm glad your glasses came in finally! Future Doodle seemed to like them but it seems like a freak coincidence that you both have the same prescription, BTW... 🤔 Awesome stuff Lady!! Ride SAFE and BE safe Doodle!

I'm 65 and have astigmatism which I used to cope with ok, even 40 years ago when bike headlights were about as bright as a candle in a lamp holder but now, even though the headlights are a lot better I really try and avoid night riding. I can hardly see anything and when lights are coming the other way I am virtually blind so I avoid that at all costs. I even avoid driving the car at night the way they are now, and this from a bloke who was working as a long haul truck driver who DID prefer traveling at night, purely because of the lesser number of other vehicles to slow me down.

night blindness is a whole thing all by itself; i've always been nightblind. an unlit road is like driving down a dark hole. well lit roads i do enjoy. in the summer i ride at nite to escape 100+ degree heat. have a daymaker in my harley but i dont find that sufficient on a dark road when u consider that u should be able to stop in the distance u can see. at the same time i dont want to blind other drivers with outrageous LED's.

So glad that you gave us the 411 on your experiences about something that few force themselves to ever do if they are uncomfortable with doing it. Because people are more likely to run you over at night, I would consider draping myself is flashing Christmas lights that change colors continuously, but I'm certain that entirely illegal. Your eyes are like mine, we are both near-sighted, and darkness and weather effects our ability to see very far. Unfortunately seeing ahead is the secret to staying alive while riding. Great video Doodle. Thank You.

I use photo chromatic rimless Oakley cycling glasses ( EVZero) ... shatterproof, highly scratch /heat resistant, weightless , adjust to any light condition - sunny.,overcast, night and the prism lenses accentuates contrast dramatically which is great all round ( brain does less work deciphering objects Eg tree from shadow) but especially for road surface. Cuts some glare at night too. Vizor up to keep cooler and glasses protecters from debris. They're Perfection. Ohh and they dont slide on your face. Oakley do prescription as well

I used to night ride until I was heading home late from a fall foliage run with some friends. We were on the interstate, I was the last in line with a semi 100 yards behind me. A racoon came running across the road and connected with my left foot and fortunately paseed in between my wheels and I stayed up. Otherwise, that semi would have turned me to paste.

maybe two years late, but you may have noticed trucks and Pickups often have a heap of Orange/amber lights up the side of them... Amber Marker lights are perfectly legal, and will help you to be seen. so if somebody want's to have led lights running along the frame or where ever... use Orange ones, and if a cop want's to give you a ticket, just take photos of trucks, pickups and even factory fitted marker lights on any other type of vehicle such as Vans. and when you fight it in court, show them to the judge and ask why if it is LEGAL then why did you receive a ticket for wanting to be as visible as bigger vehicles and use the same technique and colour of light as those bigger vehicles.

I almost think you might have a black luck cloud like mine around you. Keep up the great videos, doodle. Edit-Helmet shields should be replaced as soon as glare from scratches becomes an issue. They are pretty cheap too. I would replace mine once a year if they got knicked up. Heck, the old ones would scratch right away if you wiped them with the wrong things. Nothing like looking through a kaleidiscope driving down the road. Thankfully, todays plastic compounds are far more scratch resistant.,

When it’s foggy your glasses are gonna fog up be prepared for that,it’ll happen I think amber lenses will help with bright light at night,last night I got caught in the fog my glasses fogged up couldn’t see plus my taillight bulb blew so I didn’t have any rear lights at all,as far as tightening your glasses goes get you a safety strap & they’ll after you adjust them keep your glasses close to your face,keeps the wind out too,with me wind sometimes gets under my glasses & makes my vision blurry so I try to keep my glasses as close as I can,the only tip I have for rain is good rain gear Nelson rig rain gear I’m a full time rider & I can swear by Nelson rig rain gear,won’t keep you warm but it’ll keep you dry,if you’re riding in @ night I also recommend deer whistles on the front of your bike you can get them at any parts store or online ride safe

That looks like my disc lock. You are better off without that. It had an audible alarm. However, one time the alarm did not go off when I got on my bike and I forgot it and took off. The estimate for repair was $2000.00 for the Triumph dealer. I still paid $1300.00 at a local shop. So, not recommended.

i have over 70,000 night time miles on my 2017 road glide, i prefer riding instead of watching TV after work, simple as that, Deer Whistles are a must, i have 15 of them on my road glide, heated grips make all the difference, invest in bigger headlights and convert your turn signals to headlights, and add ALL THE RUNNING LIGHTS in the entire catalogue to your motorcycle. The goal is to blind the ppl behind you with brake lights, and blind the ppl ahead of you with deer lamps for cornering, and also make sure too you have charcoal in town BEFORE you go back out to the trail lol

Not sure if anyone else said this (Quickly looked through the other comments, so I may have missed it), if you install LEDs you may need a relay to help with the current. I had to install a new relay for my blinkers and integrated taillight because neither where working when I first got my bike. Once that was installed, the blinkers worked and taillight (brake light and running light) started working.

Blinker links require relays or flashers so they blink. It doesn't matter what type bulb they are. The headlight LEDs come pretty much plug and play now.

Just to be pedantic - motorcyclists aren't 27 times more likely to get in accident - they are 27 times more likely to die in accident. The night time riding statistic you mentioned was also from 3pm to 9pm - which isn't completely night time - seems more like when there are more vehicles/motorcycles on the road.

My biggest problem with glasses on a long day of riding, is if the temples are tight enough to keep them from slipping down, they give me a headache after a while.

They make eyeglass nose pads to help them from slipping. LED lights will help a lot...are you also going to look into a new windshield? Best wishes and keep up the great work.

I see you with the makeup on, pretty. Anyways, I wear a safety vest like the crossing guards and construction workers do but thats day and night and I even took the pin clip off one of my old nametags to keep the velcro from coming undone and becoming a hi-viz cape while i ride which is why I got a clip to hold it together. Next helmet is gonna be a hi-viz one. Scorpion has one for sale at CycleGear but I got four more years on my current bucket. Ride safe if you do continue to ride into the night

Visors are like windshield wipers. Yes you can go cheap, yes you can use the same ones forever, but man the difference when you put on a new high quality windshield wiper or brand new visor is night and day.

You might try a strap for your glasses to keep them in place. It's not a fashion statement no worries keeping in place while riding.
