Hi, thanks for looking and hopefully assisting.

I am fortunate enough to have purchased my newest motorbike (still 2 years old though lol), but it's the first bike I've had that's in good nick and want to put some Clear Tank Pads on the tank. The usual one on the tank nearest to the seat and some knee pads ones. When looking around a lot of people say "These one's don't stick", are there any recommendations please for one's that are fail safe as far as remaining stuck the tank is concerned please?

Thank you in advance for your repies.
:think: Can anyone explain to me how to put a signature here? :think:

    I would go find a sign making company that do vinyl signs. Tell them what you want and you want it in "Cast Clear Laminate" as that is applied to whatever it is going on then heated to 90C to fix it to that shape. Cast Laminate is what is used when you've done a full vehicle wrap to protect the vinyl underneath. Its only a few quid for a metre of it plus whatever they'd want for putting it on.

    Its sometimes handy having a wife who is a sign maker :D

    What about a tank bra?
    Just searched ebay, harley ones mainly but I had one for my Hayabusa so I'd imagine you'll get them for any bike.
