I have a bright yellow jacket with a blue bike.
Makes being seen much easier.
I swear there have been a few times people have been backing out of their driveway and have seen me sooner because of the yellow jacket.

The same.....
I just love my blue FZ6R...
Matte black helmet. Black riding pants. Blue jacket with white and black accents/trim. Blue tank bag with black accents/trim. Blue saddle bags with a little black trim. Going to purchase a matching blue tail bag, which has a little black trim. Will look at a new helmet at some point... probably will be blue or black.

Yup, my helmet and vest were already blue because my previous bike was TYB.

White and pink helmet, white and black jacket, black riding pants, and black and pink gloves.... Oh my bike is the white/pink...... and my shoes are white and blue.... lol. And if I'm really feeling spunky, my hair-tie is usually white too.

My gear is blue, black, and gray to semi color match my blue bike I guess..
black does look sharp & go with everything. but objectively i think it is harder to see on the road...
I went canyon driving with some buddies a few weeks ago. and, one of my friends actually showed up on his bike instead of his car... (he got a lotta shit for that- for obvious reasons.)
It was a clear sunny day, and he was wearing a full, black alpine stars riding suit + matte black helmet. (His bike is a cafe racer style nodded Suzuki 650cc that's blue & red. There were TONS of bikers on the road that day... So we had to be extra careful sharing the road with them... Which we always do...)
Anyhoo... As I navigated the corkscrew turns I noticed that he was more difficult to see compared to other riders on the road that were wearing colored riding suits on. the guys in yellow & red suits seemed most visible to me- cuz they stood out more... In the black suit, however, in some spots my friend basically looked like a shadow on the road around some turns... Just my observation, anyways...
