It's tarty if thats what you mean.

Probably stays on too, although prepare to be slated. Think zxr400er is the only one on your side Wink

i like it when put on the correct machine. if it is going on a naked bike, the it needs to be tarted up. and if its going on a commuter.....dont!

Bought mine from the same place. Good shop, good delivery, fair price.

Like others have said, depends on the bike - looks okay on mine though me'thinks.

I fitted red rim tape to my RR Monday night, its a sod to fit and you cant get it on 100% rite so when the bike on the padock stand you can see s slight wobble in it as the wheel spins, but once the bike moving more than 5mph you cant tell, and it look ace!!!
Really finishes the look of my bike off as the wheels are black.
