Knee area tank protection

[Guest]

Noticing lately that the area where my knees go on either side of the tank is looking a bit 'worn' for lack of a better word. I suspect that my mesh riding pants rub at those spots. Should I put either clear or rubber protection there? Not sure what the right name for the protection might be, thinking of material like they use for clear bra applications?

You could always go for the vintage Brit Bike look and put on some tank pads. You could probably find a universal pad that could work on your GS.

Something like this, (but not on a bonne of course)

I hope this helps!

I was recently thinking about this and I couldn't see anything that would suit my 450 tank, so I when I get to that point I was planning on talking to one of those places that make up novelty rubber mats with your photo on or whatever.

I was hoping I'd be able to give them a Suzuki emblem of some sort to embed in the rubber.
