YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE.

Hmmm not quite, they are poorly placed. But almost, I say they look better when done properly.

I think on the right bike they can good. Hitty Missy, though. In most cases, money wasted.

Don't waste your money on them if that's what you're thinking of doing. I did it on my moped ages ago and only used them once Embarassed .

Oi! Evil or Very Mad I may quite like the idea of making love with a man called Brad (as long as the surname is Pitt), but even I don't think neons are cool.

Of course they're cool... if you're under 25 and have a 14 year old girlfriend.

Otherwise you'll probably hate them.

Have you ever seen neons on any vehicle that looked cool?
Nope?
Neither has anyone else.
Only do this if you want to be mocked every time you go out on the bike.

I voted they look cool, but honestly no they don't...
They can however look right/ good but only if they're very carefully placed on the right bike, you'll still get old farts sniggering at you and the majority of people will still get the wrong impression but aesthetically they will be the dogs bollocks.
...Just to state I have never actually seen a bike with neons that looks "cool" but the picture NC30 posted can be the first exception.

My general rule for cool neons on a bike is that it must meet the following criteria:
Jett/ Matt Black/ Graphite Bike
Bright Green/ Lime Neons
Extremely Bright Pulse Mode
Interfere's with speed / ANPR cameras.
