Actually they just require the front turn signals and brake light to be illuminated at all times (atleast where i live). Reflectors are not necessary. I yanked all my reflectors and warning decals off long ago (both bikes).

And generally speaking, the more lit up you are at night the more you will be seen. I added purple LEDs to my shadow 1. to be seen better from the side and 2. because it looks wild
