Hey guys, I have been looking for some tank grips for a while, and I want to hear any opinions about grips you use. I recently bought riding pants, and they slide on the seat alot more than jeans do, so I find myself needing some grip at the knees.
I have found the Techspec gripster pads, but they don't make one for the XJ600. They sell general sheets I could cut, but I know the edges wouldn't be nearly as clean as the formed edges on the model specific pads. They also have 2 different grip patterns, snake skin which looks like tread and is pretty thick, and high fusion which is thin and more uniform.
If you have used a non-XJ bike specific pad that fits the XJ tank well, I'd love to hear which one. It's hard to tell from pictures which will fit well.
