    Anyone use rim tape?

    I was thinking about getting some rim tape for my bike. Has anyone used it before? http://www.ebay.com/itm/DEEP-RED-Rim...ebc9a2&vxp=mtr

    I have then on my Hayabusa.
    Use soapy water to slide them into place before gently rubbing the excess out and its easy.

      Did that on my SV

      Pretty easy with the precuts.Used the "extra's" to do the insides.

          FlamingChainsaws did it to his cafe 450 build a while back. Let me go digging for pictures, I might be able to find something. He had painted the wheels black, and with red rim tape. It looked pretty good I recall.

          Edit: Found the pics of it in his build thread. Attached one here.

            Looks great on the SV, but I'm not a huge fan of it on older bikes.

              Looks like good bang for your buck to me.
