Bit like go faster stripes imo and not to my liking but each to their own, it's your bike and if you like them then keep them.
Get orange glow in the dark ones :grin:

Got to say I like the rim tape, got some blue tape to go on mine. Think certainly with black rims it helps to break it up alittle.

since the bike has castrol graphics i think no as the castrol bikes of the time didn't have any.

i have tape on 2 of my bikes that are in stock colours as i think it breaks the tyre up from the black rim and makes the edge jump out at you. and i think it only works with dark/black wheels.
