Are rim/wheel stripes corny?

as above.

I'm considering it, but my other half reckons it would look tacky.

What's the .org view?

rim tape. (Watch it K I know what I said) is chavy, end of.

Oops!

I just added some nice bright yellow ones to my black pointy, they look boss and increase my visibility in low light conditions!

This is the reason I have some on mine. Don't give a crap about how they look (hence bits being missing)!

Well, I ordered blue ones yesterday, but may not fit them til I see what the forum verdict is!

Not if done tastefully

Depends what colour the tape is, and whether it works with the colour your bike is.

Personally I dont like it.

I also bought some Respro black diamond A4 sticker sheet, which I'm going to cut to fit some of the lines on the fairing. They're black by day, but scotchlite reflective when hit with headlights.

Will post some pics of the rim tape tomorrow if I get chance (bike is under cover for the night) and once I've done the Respro stickers, I'll post some of them too.

I say if you like something don't mind what everybody else thinks.
