Excellent Material
[How is it used?
I bought this CenterTank Pad to prevent scratches on the Tank.
I regretted that I bought it so early because I didn't put anything on it at first, so it was damaged at the Center just two months after delivery and the gloss was gone.
Was the one you received as per Image?
There is something needed for installation, so it can be attached easily.
Package is also Green type, so Kawasaki users may be pleased!
Was the installation difficult?
It is just like a regular Sticker because you just paste it.
But since it is a Center pad, it is useless unless it is attached to the Center, so it is better to Center out.
It might take that long. After that, there was no problem when I applied it while slowly releasing the air.
Universal Product, so it can be used for any type of car.
How was your experience with it?
It feels like a proper anti-scratch expectation.
Material is also cool and full of luxury.
At first I was going to use a GSX1300R HAYABUSA OEMCenter pad, but it's big in the middle. "GSX 1300 R HAYABUSA" I just wanted something thimble, and since I also use EasyGrip's Knee grip, I decided to go with this one, partly because I wanted to unify the two.
[Included Parts:were they on?
Sticker or Alcohol Tissue.
I find it very convenient because it has everything I need for pasting.
[Was there anything that disappointed you?
No, I don't!

I chose EasyGrip to avoid corroding the Paint with poor quality glue, which inevitably leads to sunburn and deterioration due to UV rays in inexpensive products that often ruin the texture. I believe this will never be a problem.

I'm glad I bought it
[How is it used?
I purchased this product to prevent scratches after delivery, but the knee grip is more effective than the actual scratch protection.
I'm new to wearing a Knee grip myself, and I'm so pleased with the effect that I'm bummed after installing it.
Was the one you received as per Image?
First purchase of the famous EasyGrip
The delivery time was a little long, but I think it was worth the wait.
When I open a new one, it smells like Rubber from a shoe store, I like myself Large.
Material is soft and nice to the touch
How was your experience with it?
After attaching the grips, I tried riding the bike, and wow! The knee grips were great. I have always leaned forward, so it was hard for me to ride for a long time or to make a sudden break because all the weight of my body would be on my wrists. After attaching this product, my knees became the fulcrum and the weight on my wrists was alleviated, and my upper body felt lighter.
Also, even when cornering, the knees are firmly hooked, so you feel as if you are one with the vehicle, without slipping.
[Points to note]
When pasting, please be slow
If you do it in a hurry, you get a lot of air, which is not aesthetically pleasing.
How did it compare to other products?
I can't say I've used any other products.

My Motorcycle is pure White, [Color] I thought Clear would be the best, but EasyGrip's [Color] Clear is a bit with-color or yellowish, so it stands out even if you put it on a normal white motorcycle. So, I think Black would be more suitable for White Motorcycle.

It was too difficult for me.
I had experience pasting automotive film in the past, so I bought it thinking it would work, but it turned out to be disastrous.
The shape is complex and cannot be aligned well with subtle curved surfaces at all.
Moreover, it is difficult to remove air bubbles because of the thickness of the ??Film, and it is stretched so much that air bubbles do not come out at all.
It is wiser to be honest and ask the PRO to do this.
Sorry, this is a bit of a whiney impresario. Yes, the product is solid and looks good.

![Tank Pad Tank Grips [Pro]](https://img.webike-cdn.net/catalogue/images/58683/Universal-Sheets-300x150mm-Black-Pro_TS.jpg)
Firm knee grip.
I was using KIJIMA's Tank Pad (208-006), but the surface was getting rough.
Replaced with EasyGrip Tank Pad.
PROSeries Black.
Since it was supposed to be for Circuit, I thought it would be better for other uses, but I bought it because I thought the finer grains would be less uncomfortable.
The location was at the bottom of the Tank and where the Side cover part fits.
I put it on this part with my own Seat.
result
There is no slippage at all, nor is there any unwanted snagging, allowing for a very firm knee grip.

Easier Knee grip
This will be a reReview.
Immediately after delivery, only the side cover was attached, but later the tank side was also attached because the legs hit the tank side when the vehicle body is supported by the outer legs with the ass shifted, such as when driving on a mountain pass.
The positioning was done without any particular instruction manual, and the position of the legs was determined by straddling the tank, making sure not to miss the point where the legs hit the tank, and fine-tuning the position so that the line of the tank would be consistent with the line of the tank.
As with the Side cover section, when attaching, peel off the backing paper gradually to prevent air bubbles from entering, and apply it from the center outward in a way that releases air.
Although I am rather clumsy, I think I was able to apply it reasonably neatly.
As a result of driving on the pass, the Tank was well supported during Cornering and had the expected effect.
Especially in the forward leaning posture of SS, it is somewhat easier to support the upper body by having a good knee grip.
As I wrote in my last Review, [Color] Even though it is called Clear, I am a little dissatisfied with the Cream coloring.
A little more transparency would be nice without destroying the design of the car body.

viscosity
When I remove the Cover during the next touring after applying the adhesive, the pad at the bottom is fluttering. Already no adhesion.
It was put on by a Shop Service person. I wouldn't write this kind of comment, but it's a pity that PRO put it on.
I'm wondering if I should buy the same item.

I have a good knee grip.
[How is it used?
Purchased because the tank was too large and difficult to grip by the knees.
I chose the Pro type because I thought it should look less lumpy.
Was the one you received as per Image?
I think it was as per Image.
I thought it would be like this since it is Rubber or Silicon.
Was the installation difficult?
A cleaning sheet before pasting is also included.
Size was also no problem, as it is dedicated to the car model.
How was your experience with it?
It is not rugged, but it does serve as a firm non-slip surface.
[Included Parts:were they on?
The cleaning sheet and Instruction Manual are included, but the Instruction Manual is only available in English version.
[Was there anything that disappointed you?
I think it is a little expensive, but I will use it for a long time, so it is OK.

Quality is better with Stomp Grip.
I had installed the Stomp Grip but the seat on the side cowl side was too small and didn't hit my knee area, so I left the Stomp Grip on the tank side as is and replaced it with the EasyGrip on the side cowl side. As other reviewers have said, the EasyGrip is a large size, and I am satisfied with its functionality, but the EasyGrip looks like it is cut out from a large Seat to fit the car model, but the StompGrip has no warts on the edges and is molded one by one, so the texture and appearance are parenthesis. The StompGrip has no warts on the edges and is molded one by one. It's a choice between functionality and appearance. View detail
Reliable EasyGrip
We used EasyGrip about 3-4 years ago when we switched from StompGrip.
Since then, EasyGrip has been my choice, and I personally think that EVOType has better gripping power than Stomp.
Recommended for people who drive on circuits and mountain passes, and for sports drivers.

It is a good item
[How is it used? It's been a month since I installed it on the Meter panel of my NINJAH2SXSE (2021 model).
Was the one you received as per Image? The size is perfect for the Meter screen. I was worried about damage to the screen since the Meter is an LCD panel, but I am now feeling more secure.
Was the installation difficult? It's easy. It is the same way as the film on a cell phone screen. A small amount of detergent was enclosed in the bottle to wet the adhesive surface during installation. I did not see any Instruction Manual. I diluted it and used it. I sprayed it on the adhesive surface and pushed out the water with the included spatula, which I rubbed lightly to avoid scratching the surface of the film. Moisture was absorbed with Tissue.
How was your experience with it? I have been using it for a month now and I have no problems. There are a few small bubbles left, but no problem in use.
[Accessories] A bottle containing a small amount of detergent and a spatula are included.
[Was there anything that disappointed you? Nothing in particular. It is just a Film, so the cosmetics are rather expensive (2 stars). The shape is perfect and even an amateur could apply it well, so I am satisfied (4 stars overall).

The shape doesn't fit.
The shape does not fit.
It looks like it, but no matter how you do it, the shape doesn't fit.
Therefore, dust accumulates there because some edges do not adhere closely to each other.
And it peels off from there.
Anyway, the shape doesn't fit.

There is also some gripe feeling.
Recently, SmallWound has become prominent on Tank!
I told myself not to worry about it because it was a training machine and I used it heavily, but I found an outlet product and stuck it on for prevention& protection.
The result was a Large success. The cut was quite precise, and by carefully removing air bubbles while adjusting the cut, I was able to achieve a generally clean finish.
Although it is not a GripType, it seems to have a non-slip effect and has some grippy feeling.
The work is to clean the surface thoroughly with Seat for removing oil from the attached kit, and then apply a liquid detergent diluted in the same way as for WindowFilm. (Container is also included.) Spray generously on the paste surface and Film and adjust the position.
The included spatula for pasting is just the right size and easy to use, but it seems to have two sides, so if you make a mistake, a wound will remain as shown in the image. (It is hard to see due to the reflection.)
Because of the complex shape of Z, we divided it into parts and removed air bubbles from the center outward.
To be sure, I left it for a day after the water dried to check the adhesion and took it for a test drive. There were no parts that were about to peel off, and the adhesion was firm, so there was probably no need to worry.
If it can be applied neatly, it will look good, and even slippery materials such as synthetic fibers can be used to hold the tank in place. (Not compared to GripType...)
The instruction manual is not included in the package, so please check the manual before preparation, and be prepared to work carefully and sparingly.

Knee grip is easier and upper body fatigue is reduced.
I was going to use a Knee Pad to prevent slipping because my body shape is such that the Knee Grip is located at the side cover area, and I had used a Stomp Grip on my previous car and had a good feeling about it. However, the EasyGrip was selected this time because the range of the pad in the side cover was too narrow and it was not in the position I wanted.
Purchased PRO from shape etc. (Circuit) and the color should not spoil the Design as much as possible. [Color] I chose Clear.
I had compared the images with those of the G model up to the 2011 model, and I thought that there would be no problem installing it on the 24 model, and I was right.
Since there is no Instruction Manual for installation, I could not figure out the correct position to put it, but I put it at the position shown in the picture based on the Seat, Cowl shape, and the knee position when straddling the seat, etc.
Since there are protrusions on the surface and the Side cover is also in a phase, it is Large strange to install to prevent air from entering.
I felt like I peeled off the protective Seat on the back side little by little and managed to stretch it by pressing it from the Center toward the outside.
Despite these difficulties, the difference in knee grip between with and without the pad is enormous. Without the pad, I had to press my ankle against the heel guard to support my body, but now I can support my body at two points, my knee and ankle, which considerably improves my sense of fatigue even after running the same distance.
Currently, only the side cover portion is attached, but we plan to attach the tank side portion as needed in the future.
The only complaint is, [Color] It's a bit like Cream, even though it's Clear.
further [Color] It would have been better if it was Clear.

I love it!
I am satisfied with the outstanding Hold performance and the Large change! View detail
Fit for purpose
I chose the clear film despite being put on a black tank. The manufacturer claims the pads will take on a slight blue colour against black background.. but it's not really noticeable for me. It did take a bit of effort to push the majority of air bubbles out during installation. The colour block on the tank is still nicely visible, so that's a bonus. Make sure you know where your knees tend to sit & move on the tank before fitting the pads & allow this to guide your fitting location on the tank. View detail
The price is reasonable and the effect is decent.
Each car is Exclusive Design, or the price is high.
However, considering the difficulty of installation and the effect after installation, it was a good purchase.
I think I did.
I have read in other reviews that the adhesion is weak.
If it is done, it will adhere properly to the tank and resin parts and is strong enough.
After installation, I drove the car and it was very easy to get a good grip on the knee.
Ride quality and operability have improved.

Prices are high for dedicated products.
[How is it used?
I used it for about 3 months. I am satisfied with the expected Grip effect.
Was the one you received as per Image?
I was torn between the EVO shape and the PRO shape, but I decided on the PRO one based on other people's impressions. I wanted to make the bumps less noticeable, and I also wanted to get the color of the car body. [Color] I chose Clear. A photo of the entire car body is attached for reference.
Was the installation difficult?
There may be some difficulty depending on the Tank shape of the vehicle. In my case, the tank shape has no gouges and is straightforward, so it was relatively easy. After temporarily attaching with paper tape, I peeled off half of the backing paper from the edge and patiently attached the tape. The first one was just a little off, but the second one seemed to grab the hang. The air bubbles definitely get in, but I think you can make it better by applying it little by little and getting used to it over and over again with your hands. (It will gap, so you have to pull it in the right direction little by little! Also, a rubber roller would be nice).
What is your experience and what is your disappointment?
Knee grip is easy. I am satisfied on that point, but there are two minus points:1. it seems to be a little aggressive on Jeans, and the fabric is a little fuzzy; 2. the price is too high; and 3.
A word to the manufacturer.
Please give me a few canned Sizes that I can use in Universal. Cut yourself.
