[QUOTE="Timbo2015, post: 607595, member: 185"] Yes, the irony was not lost on me. After the cursing subsided, I realized how ironic it was. "The very paint I was trying to protect", to paraphrase a Seinfeld line. The tape was a 3M product, perhaps the stickiest tape I have ever seen. It was a clear tape, thought that would look better. I definately overthought that one. Should have just used masking tape and it would have been fine. If I decide to go the sand and gravel route, I will ship them to you, wfooshee. In a way, it is a bit liberating. When the bike was new, I would fret over the possibility of a scratch. Now I don't worry much about such things. I just ride it and have fun. When you are already missing big pieces of paint, another tiny scratch doesn't really matter. [/QUOTE]
