Rim Tape

You can't have too much white surely? Mine are green but are painted on from the factory

Love the rim tape they put on mine. Would definitely replace if there were signs of it coming off, but it's still perfect

mine was from amazon and came with an applicator. Travelled upwards of 6000 miles and still stuck on fine. Looks so much better than it did before rim tape applied

That's what rim tape should look like, nice and subtle. Black wheels can look a little plain otherwise.

Unless of course you own a 1290 superduke, in which case... the more lairy the better

It was over 2 years ago now, I can't remember which it was to be honest . Just make sure you get one that comes with an applicator.

I got a set for my 125 which was literally just curved stickers which i had to remove and apply manually. Much more difficult and time consuming, plus looked far worse.

Nope. My wheels are as god intended, unspoiled by stick on tat

Give me a shout if they do/don't work...

 

[wazza300]

Yep,links work and look good

Rim tape makes your bike faster anyway

 

[Junglist]

Oh disagree entirely too! Came with white I think it looks great, the red at the back is due to a second hand wheel

I actually quite like the idea of having different colour wheels.
My bike is mostly Red/White anyway so wouldn't be too out of place. Hmmm

First mod I did on the Duck was to remove the tacky red rim tape

 

[yonderblue]

I went for the hidden reflective rim tape. I have gold wheels on my Honda MSX125 and Honda (H2C) do gold coloured rim tape, Other than a couple of H2C logos you don't see the rim tape but of course at night with lights on it's reflective.

Rim tape reminds me of furry dice back in 80s. horrible tacky halfords add on's.

My God, your bike will look like Automan's car at night (Google it kids).

Good, A MSX125 is a small motorcycle and better to be seen. I just bought some 3M Scotchlite Black Reflective Tape which I plan on putting on the black swingarm again not visible during the day but at night automan visible

Mine came the other day but waiting for the new tyres to be fitted before applying. I'll show before and afters when ready
