Looking for thoughts and pics on rim stripes for the 07 RWB model.
I'm on the fence between red, blue, or yellow (picking up the tank logo). All in reflective tape.
I searched for pics, but there is no good way to filter through all of the pics that is not cumbersome.
Thanks.

i put blue on mine and looks sweet............................................................................................. i wanted gold but they were out ..damn it !!! also by the front turn signals i have KFC stickers awesome..

I've got white rim tape on mine. I don't currently have any pictures, but what I can tell you is that it doesn't stand out unless you're looking right at it. I plan to powder coat my rims white this winter.

Don't know if any of these pics will be helpful to you BMWHO,but as requested here are a couple bike pics for your viewing pleasure. Maybe one of these might help you decide what color rim tape you'd like on your '07 RWB.
This first bike is my '03 VFR800 Jokermobile. Take your pick red,green,orange,pink,purple,light blue,dark blue,or yellow. Sorry no white rim tape.
If the rims on your '07 RWB are black like those on my RC51,red rim tape looks particularly nice. Not sure if dark blue would show up very well against a black rim though,but yellow sure would.
This last bike isn't mine,but with white rims like these red or dark blue rim tape would look stunning. Or even a combination of the two,front rim in red,rear in dark blue,or vice-versa.
Might've given you more questions than answers BMWHO,but just some food for thought. Post up some pics of your bike when you're done. Hope this helps you,Good Luck.

Remember,you're not braking til your rear wheel's lifting,until then you're just slowing down.
