added blue reflecting strips on the rims.

it deff brings the bike out a little more and also makes my bike stick out too.(more visible) what do you all think? yeah i know the lines are not completely straight. haha

Looks nice! :thumbup: I'm excited to apply my pink stripes.

Heheheh ya, they're reflective too, so they'll look "glow-in-the-dark" pink at night. I'll definitely put up a picture or two once I manage to find time to do it.

 

[Justin Case]

that would be great if they actually had "glow in the dark" strips.

I did the blue strips too.
Too bad they didnt come on the bike stock. I think most bikes look much better with them.

 

[Justin Case]

that would be great if they did come stock. also the rider wouldnt have to put the strips on. if they come stock it would be a perfect circle.

Has anyone tried white on a blue bike? Also what brand of stripes are you guys happy with?

 

[columbus2382]

i got the yellow but took it off cause i couldnt get the lines very strait. i might powder coat my rims yellow to match the bike though

that looks nice!
reflective is the way to go. if I saw that riding at night ahead of me it would definately make me slow down.

ive got to go to the shop where i got if from and look at the package cause i threw my package that it came with away. i got them at Cycle Gear here in Orlando FL. they were about $17 not too bad considering i have alot left over.

my arent that straight but you cant really tell.

that pink looks so awesome!

that pink looks so awesome!

Thanks! The wife was psyched with the outcome. It was my first time doing wheel stripes so they're not perfect, but like you said, you can't really tell unless you look close.

I really like the look of rim stripes (your blue looks sweet as well by the way) and tried some metallic red on the VFR - just didn't look good at all. Maybe it was the silver wheel background, or the red didn't match just right, but it definitely didn't work...

The pink matches the stripes on her 6R almost perfectly, and I think it adds a nice touch to the bike...

Looks pretty straight (or should i say circular?) You know what I mean... any special way you did it, or just by hand?
