do it or not? because im on my nsr 125r and a mate of mine is obsessed with neons. he loves them, and pointed out to me that the bike should look how u want and different. as well as very cool.lol
just wondering if anyone on here has put neons on their bikes and have you got any pics. I cant decide, one whether to bother or not, and two what colour??? i ma leaning towards green, but am unsure.

Get white neons. or red to suit your paint. White are by far the best and give a nice clean crisp look. Green with a red white and black NSR is just going to look shit to be honest. Coordination is key!

Pic of my bike without neons fitted at night. Looks much cooler to me.

Don't do it, neons look pants on bikes and scooters whatever colour they are. Why not just put a big sign on saying "Mr Police man, please pull me over"

Superbright LEDS are better than Neons

I am ashamed to admit I think that those LED's in the engine bay look cool Embarassed

I myself am not a huge fan of neons and the like.
I do think, however, that you should do what you like! Its your bike and your the one that will be riding it!

Remember of course that they are illegal on public road (I know the laws are sketchy, and that depending on where they are fitted and the colour etc they can be legal but generally.. the police aren't fans Smile

)

But when has that every stopped anybody? Laughing

Nothing to stop you using them when parked up, which is what it's all about pose value at shows and meets.
I can't say it's my cup of tea but I can see why people do it, it's certainly another way to make your bike a bit more individual to you.

they look alright i suspose, for shows and meets and stuff, but they're rather pointless - the neons that just illuminate the road are pants.

don't forget tho, the majority of those people pointing at your bike and nudging their mates arne't doing so cos it's cool.. they're laughing at it

it's like chavboys in their cars..

make it look different, by doing the same as everyone else who wants to make it look different..

I don't see the logic Neutral

Saw a lowered golf with Neons in westcroydon on saturday nite, he had sped round a corner not realising that speed humps had been fitted..... *crash* 4 neon tubes and a host of mounts scattered across the road....

Id recommend against fitting them unless you want attention from the police, and as your on an nsr125 i doubt your license can take much abuse.
