Reflector?
OK boys and girls for you beginners and some of you people that just never had a clue, please pay attention now. One of the first things you need to do, as an adult Harley owner is to loose the side reflectors on your motorcycle. After all you're not mommy's little person riding their Schwinn or Huffy bicycle any more.
The manufacturer is required to do some just awful things to a motorcycle before it becomes yours. Some of the worst are quiet exhaust systems, gas starving engines, Japanese sounding horns, and those surely ridiculous looking side reflectors.
Now go out to your garage with a screw driver or maybe a hammer, and please beat the F**K out of those reflectors, NOW! And all other motorcycle riders in the world will thank you for your co-operation.
We appreciate your compliance with those who hope to stamp out and eiliminate motorcycles that look like children's bicycles. That's a nice person and if you do this before you go to bed tonight you can stay up for milk, cookies and bourbon. Thank you again.

I've been through the whole freaking J&P catalog and can't find any reflectors for my spokes. Anybody know where these are available?

When you buy new chrome legs they give you new reflectors ready to install. So if you save your old ones and get some good 3M two sided tape you can double them up and be twice as safe.
