Your blinkers/running lights are covered in chrome and only visable from directly in front or behind, and now your tail light is the same way. The bullet styled lights are nice looking in the daylight but reduce visability from the side at night and covering the sides of your tail light in chrome does the same thing. I'm not talking about the reflectors, they don't help.
It's hard enough to get the cages to see us during daylight, can't see making it harder at night.

I have the 5" and its perfect. The 3" would definitely work but I just wanted the extra room and from what I am read, the 5" give that little extra that matter a lot.

What I did to be seen at night on my fatty was I installed led lighting on the underside of tank and engine. Not sure what the laws are in your area but I know here as long as there not flashing its legal here. Easy to install and takes up no power.

No offense meant, I just think you should have put the $40 into the piggy bank towards the tri-bar LED tail light.

Craigslist.... but if you are interested, I may be selling it to buy a TRI bar LED light. It is brand new, I just really really like the look of the TRI bar light....not that this one is bad, just different.

Yea, I agree. I don't hate it but I think I like the TRI bar better. I should be able to sell it for $40 though no problem....its brand new.
