Just thought I would post a quick picture of the yellow rim stripes I installed on my 2006 Honda CBR1000RR (blue/yellow model). I think it really sets off the wheels and like the look much better than the plain black rims. I''m fortunate enough to have access to a vinyl cutter so was able to make these in about 15 minutes. If I had it to do over again, I might make them slightly wider. Let me know what you think!

Looks really nice. I don''t think you need to go wider they look good just the way they are. I think rim stripes give the bike a look that nothing else really can and if done right can really make it look better. Nice job.

Very slick looking colors mate 

I personally do not get into fancy paint jobs ..and never have, but that is very eye catching ...

kool   and as mentioned ...I would not go wider either ....its just enough as is ...
