Default Wheel stripes on a Sportster?

Anyone have wheel stripes on their Sportster? I ordered a set of orange for my 883R.
I usually see them on sport bikes. I don't know if I've ever seen them on a Harley.

I'll submit a picture after I apply.

HA HA HA HA wheel stripes where used on the old hot rods in the 50s and 60's to check to see if the wheel was spinning true, without having to pull it off the car! it has nothing to do with brand... ahhh man some people make me laugh! it is a throw back look and belongs on a bobber more than alot of things would

i order from this chick on ebay... my shop has been installing her stripes for about a year now! great product... she has every color you can think of and they are pre cut... she even gives you extra, in case you screw up... only problem... i dont have her seller ID on me...ill look when i get home

I think they look good on a Nightster and JRK's bike, don't think I would use them on mine though.
