so far as I know:
the reflectors and bells rule are for sales of "new" bikes. ie: bikes sold as new by retailers.
the rules for the bike once it hits the road are for the rider and are slightly different (bells are not compulsory, red rear reflectors are, orange reflectors only on post october 1985 bikes or something)
this may or may not be exactly right, I'm not going into the detail now as I'm hitting the sack. maybe someone else will delve deeper
