That seems pretty smart, so you don't get run over on the roads at night... especially since you have a black bike.

Hehe, I did it for the look. But the safety aspect of the rim tape is nice as well.

I think most of us would think a bike would be "faster" than a car. But here's some food for thought - British style.

Nice ride. I had a TLR but sold it and now have a cruiser I'm trying to sale. Its an 02 Volusia if anyone is interested, lol. Don't mean to tread on your thread though.

It does sound the best but it's really , really loud. The video doesn't portray the sound exactly. Plus I reved it to only 3k, the others were reved to 6k.
Not to mention it's ILLEGAL.
