Not sure you need real helicopter tape at $240 per roll. Sure, it would work, but a tape with a lesser spec (that is, cost) would probably work as well. A helicopter blade tip is going perhaps 850 fps (around 600mph) relative to the air on the advancing side of the aircraft. The duty level of tape protecting a bike finish is nowhere near that intense.
