hey all,
just wondering what side protectors everyone uses on the sides of their tank? i've seen the stomp grip ones but would prefer something a bit more suttle, does anyone use the leather ones? i saw a zx10r that had a sheet stuck on either side in the exact colur, looked really good but don't know where he got them! my knee's rub a bit and leaves a little scuff

thanks for any help, james

you can get sheets of clear film,laminx are pretty good but you would have to cut it to shape yourself

stomp grips arnt protectors dude, they are for assistance for gripping your thighs around the tank for braking and cornering


as daz said you can buy a film to protect from scratches

Get some stompgrip tank protectors, help with hanging off the beast as well as protecting the paint.

As well as some universal protectors from Hein Gericke( £5,ish a pair) I use smaller versions of the stompgrip type pads ( about a 1/4 of the size ) but I can't remember where I bought them .
