How to Stay Visible on a Motorcycle
It is not hard to stay visible on a motorcycle but surprisingly, some people fail to notice the riders and they crash into them. Some make an excuse for this by saying that they are colour blind while others say that they were unable to notice. Not to mention that things like these happens very rare but still, there is no harm in staying at a safer side. If you have a bike and you ride it frequently, it is strongly suggested that you should try to stay visible to avoid collision as much as possible.

1
Choose dark colour for bike
People may disagree with this, but it is of reasonable importance that you choose dark colour for your bike. The colour should be prominent enough to outstand you against any other colour. For this, you can choose black, dark blue, red or any other colour in a brighter tone but remember that you must choose the colour carefully. -
2
Buy a suitable helmet
After you have purchased the bike in a reasonable colour, it is necessary that you should purchase the helmet of a suitable colour. It is entirely up to you what colour you but you must follow the same technique for your helmet. Remember, it is important that the colour of your helmet should contrast or complements the colour of your bike. Even if you buy the helmet of same colour, it will not create any problem and you will be able to stay visible on the motorbike. -
3
Wear clothing of reasonable colour
Now you should try to use the same procedure for your clothing. Remember that clothing is the most important thing in staying visible on a bike. Here, you must try to wear something that contrasts with the colour of your bike and helmet. For example, if your bike and helmet is of black colour, you can wear grey, white or something off-white, as this will prominent you. However, it is such a colour that wearing black with black is not a problem. Nevertheless, you should be extremely careful when wearing clothes if you have a bike of any other colour. -

Sit properly
The most important thing in staying prominent is to sit properly. Most people bend their backs while sitting on a motorcycle and this does not make them prominent. However, you should make sure that your back is completely straight and you are sitting properly.
