    Tech Spec tank pads

    Came across a great new product called Tech Spec. Ordered it up for all my rental units and seems to be a better product than Stomp Grip. Goes on easy and bonds quickly with just a little heat.

    We're the only local dealer, and can beat the internet price

    Are they made for each model or can you get a sheet of it? I want some on the DRZ. That tank is slicker than snot.

    In the dirt (and a lot of street for me) it's nice to be able to slide around the bike IMO

    I run these on my bike. Two thumbs up.

    I noticed two big differences when I put them on. It's a lot easier to stay in place under braking and they keep the outside knee in place on turns.

    I can still move around on the bike, it just takes less pressure to stay put.

    Tech Specs are great. I use them as well. Gives me a more positive feel than Stomps. My one complaint is their stupid little hard logo. Took a while to position the pads so the logo wouldn't kill my knees.

    Dana we can order sheets. There are two different types, the "grip tape" texture and the "snake skin" we have the grip tape on the Can Am and the Snake skin on all our other bikes

    Sheets for custom applications are only $32 dollars

    If there is enough interest (4 or more orders) I can do some special pricing

    Salsa, Truimphs are the same price as a CBR, etc. $42

    I need payment before I order, so if anyone wants a set stop into the shop and I will order them on late next week or when I have 4 or more paid orders.

    Also PM me with bike info and if you want the grip tape or snake skin

    Re: Tech Spec tank pads

    I actually asked a local dealer about these a week ago with cash in hand and desire to buy... so I will call them this week and see what he says. I may have to buy them from you. From what I read they are more comfortable than the stomp grips.

    K,
    Do they say how big the Sheets are?
    I'll probably be in for the SS sheet.
    PM me next week.

    Not sure when I'll have time in the next week with all the nice weather, but I'll try to stop in on Monday, Wednesday, or Friday.
