Was looking at the wife's bike-noticed that there are only two reflectors. I feel this isn't as safe as it could be-how can I install more? Is there a source for spares? Do they fit on the trellis? Thanks all for your help.

buy some low voltage strobes and mount them on the sides.
best to use multiple colors. make sure they are pointing at horizon so they hit the sclera dead on.

I could mount a lite-brite and spell out "Ducati" with the little lights.

Better yet, install a fairing, drill thousands of holes in it and then side light it from the interior of the fairing: That way the fairing becomes the light-brite.
Seriously, I recommend just using strips of reflective tape or go to a bicycle store. They often carry reflectors meant to attach to narrow tube frames.
