got some rim tape coming in, anyone know how to install that stuff?

I believe all you have to do is clean the rim good and just stick it on like tape. At least that's what I did with the pin stripping we put on Melissa's bike rims.

I'm just worrying about bubbles when I put it on

It's such a small area you can easily work the bubbles out to the edges with your fingers.

That, or puncture stubborn air bubbles with a needle.

It should come with an applicator like this.

Heh, I got that image off Amazon from the $16 rim tape.

Looks sweet if it works, I tried one of those fancy tools for applying masking tape when preparing to paint an interior room, and found that was the biggest ripoff ever. Kinda like those plastic caulk removers too. JUNK!

I just washed my wheels then eyeballed it.

Turned out ok, but got a big grease spot in the carpet from me spinning the wheel on the carpet as I put the tape on (long story)

Why did you have your wheel in the bedroom?

Kinky!

Unnecessary though. Nothing wrong with a little sexy time in the garage. Not that I'd know anything about bending someone over my motorcycle...

I really don't want to know what you and miles do in your own time.

No. Miles prefers Rhino's.

Ah, so he prefers Rhino but still goes back to you when he needs it good and kinky?
