Rim tape buying advice?
I want to get some rim tape for my 2005 candy grand blue sv650. I want to get a reflective rim tape but want to get a tape thats as close a match in colour to the bike as possible. Does anyone have any experience with this? Where to buy? Or could ye recommend any other colour?! Thanks!

Re: Rim tape buying advice?
its an aquired taste.
though the majority of times i've seen it brought up the reaction has been the same. best place to look is going to be ebay probably. i always come across it on there, cant really help out anymore than that though |

Re: Rim tape buying advice?
yes but fake carbon is just that 'fake' just like a fake Rolex watch it looks like the real thing but its not.
each to their own and all that and if everyone liked the same thing it would be a boring world. but rim tape, its got the word rim in it so it cant be good. should be called 'chav tape' just like that fake carbon stuff 'chav carbon'. i'm only pulling yer legs btw

You could try ebay
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=110640320349 The blue might match. If you like it then do it.
