I had to slap my forehead ... turns out it's the same guy I got my tape from in the first place, just under a different user name!
We both had a good laugh
He's gonna hook me up though, great guy.
Going to go Gold with the rim tape and get me some gold flames as soon as the bike is back from the Kawasaki Doc
then the wife will get it painted when she gets it next year (groan) ... pink.
