haha thats funny... your car/bike combos are the opposite of each others... 1 has the nicer car but lesser bike (g37/S2Rk) while the other has the lesser car but nicer bike (G35/S4Rs)

needless to say, all 4 vehicles are amazing!  [thumbsup]

I decided to leave the reflectors on my bike since everyone else takes them off. Leaving them on is more unique than taking them off ;D.

.... a little extra visibility never hurts.

Unless you're driving at night and someone with HIDs hits the front end of your bike just right causing a glare that actuates the little sensor that lets ambulances through intersections and someone runs a red light and clips the ass end of your bike.  THEN, to make matters worse that causes a lowside and your reflector gets caught during the slide on one of those little manhole cover nubbies and it pops off and hits you in your eyeball.  Then it may hurt, but I think I'm really looking for excuses here. 

Oh!  End threadjack.  I was actually just reading about your stolen bike in the stolen section right before I found this thread.  Sorry you lost your old ride, but the new one's a beauty!

Nice replacement.  Too bad there isn't better security for it.  Is that the same spot your old bike got stolen from?
