My bike needs some and the reflective silver I have bought in the past from Tapeworks is discontinued. It was nice quality stuff too.

6148 Reflective Silver Rimstripes — Tapeworks Graphics

6148 Rimstripes (color #148 Reflective Silver) Reflective like a STOP sign! 1 Roll (Qty 1) provides more than enough striping for 1 complete car, truck, motorcycle, or bicycle.

For those of you that put rim tape on your bikes, where did you get it from?

Cdn Tire, but I use the non reflective.

Curious question: are you matching color with the bike, or something different that "pops" ?

I may have a roll or 2 of the neon color I had on my FZ6. If you like that color and I still have it, its yours.

I recall a GTAM member who actually puts them on road signs. He probably has the best stuff

Thanks for the offer

I'm going to stick with the reflective silver, because I don't think I would like anything else.

If the bike were black, I would be open to a lot of different colours, but since mine is grey/silver, I'm not so sure I would like other colours.
It also has these stupid blue brake caliper things on it, which I would have to change to to avoid clashing with other colours.

Silver may show as white/silver.
You can try Amzon, if its not what you are looking for, they do have a very forgiving return policy.

Buddy's FZ1 is in this pic.....we all have red stripes on silver/grey bikes (Red Stripe Riders).

That's pretty awesome.

I like his tank grips too - I've been looking for some like that. Are those Tech Spec's for the R1?

Tech Spec yes. I'm 99% sure they're for an R1.
