VFR80025th Posted November 4, 2021 Posted November 4, 2021 If you do does rim tape look good on the bronze wheels. Post a pic if you can. Just wondering out loud. Thxs Quote
Member Contributer Mohawk Posted November 4, 2021 Member Contributer Posted November 4, 2021 So what colour tape would you use on Bronze rims ? I have lurid Yellow rim tape on my BST Carbons , looks good if I do say so myself, but then my bike is Blue which helps 😁👍 Quote
Member Contributer Captain 80s Posted November 4, 2021 Member Contributer Posted November 4, 2021 I think a Charcoal, like the master cylinders, would be subtle but noticeable, and make the bike stand out from others. Edit: They're black, aren't they? Matte black is my answer then. Quote

Member Contributer ShipFixer Posted November 5, 2021 Member Contributer Posted November 5, 2021 Also not an 8th gen or bronze wheels, but...the visibility increase is money. I would go with the "black" or "gray" reflective strips and enjoy. ~10 years ago I'd have never put these on my bike, now I'm really glad they're there. And it seems like I see them on other motorcycles more often than not. This is pre-refurb so ignore the faded plastic and whatnot, but "flash" photography from my phone. The red pops...every other color will pop more. I have very similar white decals on my night-ride oriented road bike and it would be hard for a motorist to say they didn't see them (or my 3600 lumen bike lights, etc.). Quote
