Helicopter tape????? Get the pictures going then

Skid06 · Mar 20, 2013

clear protection tape, they call it helecopter tape because its used to protect helecopter rotors from getting damaged, i use it on carbon mountain bike frames its vitually invisable and easy to apply, just take your time

Here's some pictures of my invisible tape, enjoy!

just needs the new akra and tinted screen

it only takes a few minutes to take the hangers off, you need to take the very heavy dustbin off first to do it tho, does gives nice clean line to the back end, ok if you ride solo

The way you have it there its very sportsbike'ish at the back end - you'll definately get a tug if you come down my way!

Nutty · Mar 21, 2013

I like that more than I thought I would

The standard plate is massive in comparison!

You need to get ride of the rear rack and rear seat cushion now... get it looking tidy :beerjug:

skid06, what size is that number plate 9"x3"? Looks good. Are you going to buy the BMW supplied Akro or aftermarket?

Skid06 · Mar 21, 2013

the BM Akro and screen, ive got some touratech cylinder guards in black on order, goin to tap up a bird who works in dealer parts for a good price on exhaust and screen, i said id buy her a drink tonight :thumby:

ill let you know tomorrow

stevie Allen · Mar 21, 2013

I think a mudsling would finish that back end off nicely

Yonkyo · Mar 21, 2013

Looks good... :thumby:

But that 'Letter Box' plate will certainly get you a pull from the plod down this neck of the woods too.... :blast

Jumblemo · Mar 21, 2013

Definitely looks far better without the exhaust.

I recon that helecopter tape will be good on the front of the engine to stop it gettin chipped coz there arnt any fender extenders on the market yet !
