cheers

Nowt wrong with stomp grips bar the price.
Berlin has a great alternative that I can't fully remember, those clear rubber stick on protectors you get from b&Q etc. can't remember what they're for though.

Thanks Berlin. Do you have a pic of it on the bike?

I don't. I've just sat and pulled all the little buggers off (took an age) because I'm respraying the tank. Just buy 6 sheets and cut to shape.

Is the adhesive they use suitable for going on the bike paint?

In what way?

If you mean do they stick then yes, they stick like "glue"

If you mean does it react with the paint then no, They just stick. Put either he whole sheet on or peel off just the little buttons and stick those on (not as resilient)

Eh? They are 30 quid. Hardly a bank breaker!

Alternatively, there is another brand called Tech Specs which is popular with the US 675 guys. I noticed that all the Superbike School bikes were also using them this weekend, where up until recently, they have used stomp grip.

Bit expensive for what they are, but so are a lot of things with bikes.
