What tank pad and tank grips have you bought?
 
I am looking to get a good tank pad, my current is a little small and I think I might end up scratching my tank eventually.

Also interested in getting some grip pads for the side of the tank, what ones does people use on here? Thanks in advance.

I was given a lovely one by the wife last year and it is lush. Quality is very good and price seems OK for a nice Gel pad.

Thanks for the link Jayne, looking something a little more subtle/plain if you catch my drift. Very nice all the same, what colour is your SV?

nip over to svrider and sign up then have a word with bighammer who makes/sells good cheep pads. if you speak to him nicely he might even make custom ones for you :-)

he has sold hundreds of pairs and not one complaint.

I have stomp grips on my tank, and the genuine Suzuki tank pads look cool. The stomp grips work well.

My bike is a lovely Silver colour, but following an accident last year it needed to be resprayed, the one I was supplied by the respray company was grey/silver and had the SV logo printed into the gel, but I did not like it, so I sold to a cool bloke on here, who owns a similar silver curvy.

E-bay can be your friend for such things, I trawled for hours until I found two I really liked, a pink faery and a pale vampyre holding a rose. I chose the faery because she was prettier. It makes a statement and I now get teased by male friends who say my bike is just too girly for them to borrow! :lol:

Hate to side with them Jayne but it sounds a tad too girly for me too! lol
