I havent got one yet but I was wondering what you paid for somthing like that. I fear my tank is getting a little dull from riding up against it all the time.

Those look nice. You might look into a magnetic one if you like to show your bike you can just take it off at the show and put it back on for the ride home.

I'm sure I'll never show mine, I just ride it. So hopefully they will be permenate. As long as they stick...

in a spray bottle put ater and a little bit of soap. spray on the area you want to put the pad on and you will be able to move it around til you get it centered then just let it dry for a few hours.
