I would, however, I'd get very bored of doing that, very quickly. Done the sides of the tyre, that was boring enough.

MMmm...not sure about this one.
Maybe if i had a streetfighter style bike i would consider it. Thumbs Up
Think it would ruin the look of a spanking new fireblade for example.

I'll sell you 1 red crayon for £8.50 which will do pretty much the same thing Laughing Mr. Green

Would look cool on a streetfighter, daft on anything else.

Yeah, Good idea putting a tip on the pen, I can imagine it would be quite a struggle to write with it otherwise... Rolling Eyes

Why oh why? Confused

It's just going to get dirty within 5 miles.

That pen stuff fades pretty quick too. I've done it on the side of tyres before. Takes ages and you wish you hadn't bothered.

We use them in the race team to write on the tyre wall which set they are etc.

That ebay add is just a tarted up way of getting people ro buy them.

im sure in another thread zxr400er said something about spending lots of time cleaning and polishing his bike cos he didnt have enough money for petrol to ride it as he is a poor student.

£100 is quite a lot of petrol

although i do quite like the look with colouring tyres, i think paint is cheaper.

my mate gaz has whited the lettering on his tyres with white household paint. It works particularly well as he has a black chesterfield rs125 which has white lettering on a black background as the side fairing design.

I havent seen colouring in the tread b4. i quite like it and as that bit doesnt touch the road it might not get dirty. i might try it but i would just use cheap household paint not a pricey pen
