Hi, i'm very undecided so need help. I have a Baglux tank cover for my lovely fireblade but i think it looks so much nicer without, so should i leave it off. Simples

 

easily asked than answered, what does the cover look like. do you have any pics???

The tank cover looks nice but it's covering a sparkling tank. Might just remove it and use it when needed for a tank bag or something. Will try get some pics up when weather breaks.

 

i think tank covers spoil the look of a bike ,i myself would rather see a nice shiney tank. thats only my oppinion tho.

 

Thanks scorpion, your opinion is what i'm after. I think the same so may take it off.

 

Of course a bike/tank looks better with no cover!!!
A cover is not meant to make the bike look better, it is to protect the tank from scratches/dulling/clearcoat wearing out.

So the question isn't, "what looks better" but rather "am I better off risking my clearcoat (without a bra)" or "should I just go without?"

It is weird: automotive paint usually isn't meant to have a body laying on it, and I can't think of any place other than a motorcycle tank where a person would be on it and even rubbing it from shifting his weight on that surface again and again (as in leaning for turns).

There is no perfect answer, at least for my bike.
