people can't see my f250 4x4 crew cab with an 8 foot bed half the time. I just do my best to keep myself in a safe spot with a quick out if needed.

Thanks for sharing.
It reminds me to be more careful whenever a truck is around as it has more limited visibility than other vehicles.
Stay safe, Folks.
+1One of the main reasons I bought a red NC was for visibility. I owned a silver fiero and got side swipped a few times, and had half a dozen people pull out in front of me because not only was the car small, it blended in with the elements. The other thing I do is I have a silver helmet with reflecting lines all over it. I also adhere to the rule that I have no rights on the road and always assume I am invisible when riding.
Do you guys ride with your brights on during the day?
Also, lane positioning is important, especially as it relates to if/how they will see you.
It's not quite stormtrooper armor, but it is stinking cool...

Yes. My high beam is modulated during daylight. I always use it on high beam during the daytime.
Regarding helmet color, my own observations of riders in the wild shows that white, orange, or hi-vis color helmets are most visible. All other colors either not so much visible or not at all. Couldn't do much worse than matte black.
Over here, we have to turn on the lights during daytime too.
We have an auto-on feature on all new bikes.
