lol. Does ANYONE leave those reflectors on??

I got a recall for my bike, from the factory the reflectors were mounted 1cm too low for canadian law, so I had to have the bike in and the dealer install big ugly reflector riser bars! lol. No thanks.

I left mine on and went so far as to add one when I got a Givi rack on a bike that meant the OEM one had to come off. I'm happier being seen by nutters in cars and would prefer to have no excuses to be pulled over.

Well here it is. My 8 Year old son could of done a better job. Looks like a drunk in man did it.
I'm looking for someone who wants to do my rims for me.

I thought you were a cool guy until you tried to put rim tape on your bike :angry3:

Who needs reflectors when you have rim tape?!

I like it, so its going on.
I just need to find someone who can install it a lot better then me. If I spin the wheel the rim looks bent now.

So stop spinning the wheel. Sorry could not resist. Lol.

Make a dish of soapy water. Make 100% sure that the wheel is clean.Before you put the tape on, soap it up. That way you can reposition the tape.
As others have said, who cares what other people think. You don`t know them and they don`t know you. Your life. Forget peer pressure.
Also being able to spin the wheel and apply the tape is the best way to go. Not the be all end all.
Take your time and be patience. Oh, should mention from experience having a beer does not help. Didn`t in my case.
Good Luck.

@ Zx600. I like what I like but im not like others. I also have honda crx with full custome body work, 2 25,000watt 18*s, big ricer. But to not be like every other ricer I have a custome built tranny in it, fully built/forged engine, proper turbo and enough power to rape a vett.
I used to rock tire flie lights on my rims, but every time I went over 220 they would fly off.
