Wheel stripes

[smokenu]

I want to add some color to my FZ6, I just received my wheel stripes today :thumbup:

I ordered Yellow strips with Yamaha FZ6 in black. these stripes come precut and curved for easy install.

I went with yellow just to be a little different for all the other's and it ties in with my helment.

should I put them on or leave the bike black?
what do you guys think?

looks cool! where did you get them with the FZ6 logo in them?

Go for it. Worse that can happen is you can peel them off after awhile. I put the blue reflective stripes on mine. The striping I got came with a really handy applicator that made the job easy. The hardest part was getting the surface clean for max adhesion.

I like the all black look. Actually you can get black reflective tape to use. I have some but haven't put them on yet. I will like having the extra visibility at night. :rockon:

I got red ones with the FZ6 logo on them from http://www.dunstangraffix.com. They were a little tricky to install, but they look good.

I have black ones that reflect brown, but they're not as bright as other colours. The white ones I had on my last bike were much more reflective.

I love the look on the bike.Hope the deer can see them too.

You could use a few pieces of tape to stick them on the wheels and see if you like it... and take a pic to show us while you're at it (I understand they are very difficult to take off once on)

I had black ones on my FZ6 that reflect bright white... loved them.

With the flash on (couldn't see them without the flash on):

Man! That looks great! Did you have that belly pan before? I wonder if that yellow would work good with the blue. I'm also sort of challenged when I dress...Hahaha!

Look great Dave!

These were fairly simple to put on:thumbup:
here's the link http://www.dunstangraffix.com, they also made the Yamaha logo to match

They come pre-cut 4 curved stripes per wheel
