Default Tank pads

hi what in your opinion is the best tank? pad Ive put an oxford spider on mine but because the gaps in it are quite large the tank is getting scratched (cheep and thin Suzuki paint) i want something that covers more of the "pad" area...

It's a Motrax Rubber Ronnie. I've got one on a pointy and it does the trick.

I've got a tank pad fromt the Venture Shield tank kit that I bought on my bike.

Its virtually invisable and cover quite a large area.

When I bought my pointy it had that exact one on and it was rubbish... It fell off at about 65mph on the motorway one morning.... And a good job too.. They are horrible.
