I tried it, melted due to the rear cylinder exhaust.

A shock sock. I know someone that has one on their gsxr. Had it on a cbr125 and a sv400 before that. Didn't have any problems with it. Keeps the shock nice and clean

I bought the racetech one a couple of years ago. Wonder what happened to it, I never got round to fitting it
