Hey all,
Someone asked about striping silver rims but I can't find the thread. I just applied stripes to mine a couple days ago so I thought I'd post the pics.
It was done with the same tape I used to stripe my helmet. 1/4" 3m Reflective Tape, Black. I used an applicator that I bought from another member to help me follow the rim. The whole job took me @ 20 minutes, Including cleaning the rim w/ windex to remove oil/dirt.
Bike was put on the center stand and I just sat down and spun the wheel as needed. It would have been a good idea to lock the front end. I had to fight the turning of the steering column while doing the left side, locked it up when doing the right.
