I brought my off Ebay. Easy and fast.

Got mine from Ebay. or viperstripes.co.uk (http://www.viperstripes.co.uk/gbu0-prodshow/Rim+Stripes.html)
Cost NZ$23 all up for tape/freight.
Came in 8 pre-curved pieces per wheel + 2 spare bits (just incase).
Easy to apply. If you stuff up the line, just peel it back and reapply with no loss of stickyness.
Mid blue is a good match to Gsxr blue, though not quite right for the purplely blue of my '23'.

Head down to your local repco or auto paint shop and buy some pin striping. They sometimes keep it behind the counter. Its about 10 bucks per roll and comes in all colours and thicknesses. I think I used the 6mm from memory. Its piss easy.

Do you mean stick on bikie-boi bling tape for the outside of the wheels? Or do you mean the tape (used to be fabric, but probably now plastic) that goes round the inside of the rim, in the well, on a spoked wheel, so the sharp ends of the spokes don't perforate the tube?

The latter is what I mean by rim tape.

Yes. That stuff.

Henry, get your entire wheels painted red..so I can see how it looks.

I got red pin stripe tape from Repco when I had the CBR1000RR. Easy to put on. Good thing is if you don't like the result, just peel it off.

I was waiting for you to do that.

Looks like it's gonna rain on Sunday (again!) so I guess I'll bling my bike instead of going for a blat.

It's been a while but finally got round to doing this...

Henry, Clean up the rim and use vinyl electrical tape. Make sure you let the tape relax before attaching it to the rim. Start and finish at the hole for the valve. It's better than the bands because it stays put and does not move on the rim.

If you scroll up a bit you'll see I've already done it.
