Stompgrips
Anyone had any experience of these? Now i've fitted rearsets i'm finding it harder to grip the tank with my knees, plus it will stop the tank getting marked too.

If I remeber right, aren't these the tank grips?
a couple of bike spesific cut bits of knobblely rubberized clear plastic stuff, about £20 or so, bit much I'd say, they were originally make for off road bikes, TBH a bit of clear sticky plastic or second skin would be enough, and do the same job for a lot less cash. But, if it's your thing then go for it, I've never seen them on an SV so post pics. Cheers Mark
