Default rim strips
Anyone ever see a review of rim strips? I can't find any.
I would think there is some quality difference between brands.
lmk what you think

I'm happy if I can even find one in the right size. I had to make my last one.

I've used his stuff on my bike and am happy. I went with reflective stuff. You dont have to.

If those are reflective, they may assist in "conspicuity" at night.

I recommend the OEM Harley rim strips. Mine still look like new with almost 58,000 miles.
