Default Be Sensible - Will Insulation Tape Damage Paint With Time?

As per my other post:

http://forums.sv650.org/viewtopic.ph...asc&highlight=

We are not debating my sanity or taste, or whether an alternative covering would be better

If I leave the tape on for a few years in the baking sun and freezing cold, when I remove the tape will it cause problems?

Also, nobody actually answered the question in the orginal post apart from you (thanks) and northwind.

They spent the whole time debating my taste and sanity
