Title: Tire Printing
Post by: DangerRanger on October 14, 2013, 12:42:28 pm

Couldn't find any threads on this yet.  I think this is one of the best inventions since sliced bread.

Can't figure out how to upload a photo.  So you would need to google tire printing

looks like a good way to update the looks of a vehicle.

Really? You want to put pictures on your tyres? I can't see the attraction , but whatever floats your boat I guess.

I googled it. Don't mean to be rude but since this is your 1 st post do you really have an intrest  in royal Enfields or are you just trying to promote your product?

actually i'm obsessed with enfields and have my heart set on getting a g5 deluxe this spring once I sell the cbr250. 

I have no connection with this product other then it's the best thing since RWL and white walls.   which it can do as well.

You have my apologies ! Enfields are a wonderful machine and we all share your obsession. I have g5 delux and it's  a constant joy in an  otherwise often mundane world. Welcome to the forum, and I hope your dream is soon fulfilled. I gotta say though I'm not sure about white walls  on a bike.

yeah ive had my rz500 for 18 years of which the past ten its been sitting in the basement under the stairs.  but it was a thrilling ride those first 8 years.  She'll be the first project once my garage gets built.

but ever since I saw those yellow dunlop tire stickers and how it makes a bike pop.  I liked the idea of dressing up the tire.

Awesome Bikes!  My very first bike was an '83 RD350LC that I bought while stationed in Germany.  I put Krauser hard bags on it and rode it all around Europe and the UK.  I loved that bike, but couldn't import it into the US when I left.  Sniff. . .

I couldn't even imagine riding the RZ500.  It probably would have killed me back then.

Cheers,

Interesting.  But I'll be impressed when they learn to use the 3D printer to print more tread onto it!
