I HIGHLY recommend that you wipe down the frame with lacquer thinner or similar prior to attempting to stick them on. YOu won't hurt the powdercoat with a quick wipe down, but if there is any wax or whatever on the surface, they won't stick well. I've seen some peel up before, but I can say that after wiping the frame as above and sticking them onto a warm frame, mine have not lifted one tiny bit on 4 different bikes. And contrary to the Techspec claims of being able to remove and re-attach them, I would NOT recommend that. Plan on sticking them on and leaving them on. Looks fine on the Blue frame if you have CF body work

Al, do you have a store item for the fusion pads for just the frame? I just sat on my bike and the frame pads will definitely help during braking, but my body position when leaned off the bike places my thigh on the corner of the tank cover, not along the side, so the tank cover pads won't help me. Thanks! |

Got my Techspec Gripster Snake Skin tonight from American Sportbike. I hate to cover up the blue frame, but intrigued by the function of this product..if its half as good as the reviews, then it will be money well spent.

Fleshrocket: If you pay shipping, ill give you mine for free. I decided to just keep the parts that goes on the sides of the airbox. They might not stick well since i had them on my bike and then off (i dont have the white paper that goes on the sticky side anymore, so they are back to back now), but if you want em you can have them. Fusions.. |
