Knee Grip Rubber

I purchased K&H's Knee grip rubber this time.
Initially they didn't have it in stock and it would take a week for it to come in.
I received an email the day after the order was placed with an estimated delivery date and was able to get it within 3 days of ordering.

I had been using Tank Pad of a certain manufacturer until I purchased this Parts.
It was such that the Tank had to be consciously sandwiched due to its lack of thickness.
Well, I left it as it was, as a dress-up kind of thing.
I found the same parts from K&H and ordered them immediately. After reading the impressions of others on this site, I decided to order the same parts.
The original product was also a Double-sided TapeSpec.
The included Bond was not used and double-sided tape was used without hesitation.
It is unlikely to gap or come off if strong double-sided tape is used.

It is slightly more expensive than other Tank Pad products, but it is worth it.

The thicker the knee grip rubber, the better the feel of the knee grip. It's not difficult to install, but it takes a little hang to get it right.

I installed it on my KawasakiESTRELLA When I rode the TriumphBONNEVILLE series before, I liked the OEM pad that is attached and I was looking for a product like this and this one caught my eye!

【attachment】
I decided on a place with masking tape etc. because the glue is included in the package, and when I did degrease the place, I was able to get the same result It can be installed immediately As for me, because it seems to be not convenient to use only with the adhesive, I also used Double-sided Tape and used it together I did

Quality, texture, shape
It's very thick and suits the Classic Motorcycle and Large The amount of BALI that others have mentioned was not as much of a concern as it was a coincidence I cut it out a bit and used it mostly as is

[Knee grip effect]
When you ride a motorcycle, your knees naturally touch the Pad without you being aware of it, so the Knee It is easy to change the grip to Large Because the inside is hollow, it is soft and fluffy and you can hold the tank all the time You will want to

【Cost performance】
It may be a bit expensive for a Knee Grip Pad, but I'm Large satisfied with the look and function I think it's a fair price because we are doing it

【What made you decide the purchase?】
1. Design that suits W800.
2. Maximum Large Limit of Largest Permitted on Tank.
3. There is some thickness.
What satisfied all of these was this item.

【How was it actually used?】
Originally Tank Pad is attached to W800, but it was removed when Tank was Paint. However, even with the OEM's Knee Grip Pad, I have legs at Right Side's Bevel Gear Cover, not only can not Knee grips but also burn injuries. There are also many who have the same trouble.
So, a thick Knee Grip Pad has become necessary.
Looking for it is surprisingly thick Knee Grip Pad is less.
In terms of appearance, I prefer DOREMI COLLECTION 's, but I abandoned it because it was Large ruined and it took Tank' s Emblem (total length 25 cm thick 1. 5 cm). By the way, this K & H made is 20 cm. There is about 2 cm in thickness, but after confirming by temporarily stopping it was necessary a little more thickness, we added a 5 mm shooting Rubber sheet.
As an actual feeling of use, although the knees are still slightly in touch, it has become acceptable range.
I look exactly like an OEM.
Although it is subjectivity, this product suits the Tard of the Teardrop system such as W800 and SR.
Large size and thickness of goods, Material etc., Catalogetc. For those items which I do not know even by examining it, I checked it via webike and decided it as a judgment material. (webike : Thank you for the quick response)

【Was it difficult to install? (Hard parts case)】
Although there is not a difficult thing, since it is a one-shot game if it is an adhesive, we recommend that you mark the positioning as targeted by Right and Left.
Rubber type adhesive is included in the product.

I used Double-sided Tape to paste to Tank considering the necessity of hardening time and the trouble of peeling off. Even with things that are said to be "super strong", since Rubber is hard to adhere, one side always uses Rubber adhesive. This Large thing!

It seems that there has been no peeling although about 1 week has passed..
Please select the pasting method at your own risk.

【Please tell me the point of installation and hang (in the case of Hard parts)】
1. Degreasing of adhesive surface
2. Especially in the case of Double-sided Tape, it becomes hard to peel off when warming the object before pasting Tape.
3. It is good to fix it so that it does not move after pasting. (There are memories seen at the site of Manufacturer)

【Fit feeling and height when wearing ? Please tell me the weight etc (Apparel case) 】
Although it is not a thing to wear, the fit of the foot when Knee grip is still not good for OEM. I am convinced by saying Universal Product.
height : 172cm
body weight : 65kg
Length of foot : Probably ordinary (It is solid at W 800)

[Is there anything I was disappointed about?]
Especially it is not MinusPoint but Material : Because there is a Rubber and a height, when returning the foot down to footpeg, because there is no slip, the knees may be caught. Conversely, Breaking will hold your body firmly. Even if there is a height there is nothing to deform with a gray scale.

【Hope for Manufacturer ? Please let me know if there are any improvement points]
I think that the feeling of Fit will be improved if you give a little more roundness to the Kado area around the foot-hitting face.

【Have you compared items?】
Made by DOREMI COLLECTION. I still think that I am still the best in terms of design.

[Others]
good point
The mating surface with Tank has become a three-dimensional curved surface and it is difficult to float when pasting.
This Large thing! If you adjust the plane Pad to the Tank of the curved surface, the skimmer will be free. I feel like I know.

Because the inside is hollow, the hit is soft. And, like not to be too collapsed (I think that) There are two holders. This is also Large thing!

A bad point
Pretty much BALI remains. I removed it..
→ (Photo 6 : reference)

As a general comment, as well as looks without a feeling of retrofitting, it almost satisfies the functions that I am in need of, and moreover, since this price, I am satisfied with Large.
Certainly, compared with other Pads, if you look at only the price, it will be about twice, but if you consider it as a functional part instead of a decorative part it is a reasonable price. (I have never tried cheap)
K & H made by using it. You do a good job..
Recommended for people who are looking for a thick Pad!

I watched the item and it was Big Ri. BALI is terrible.
I can not use it unless I finish it myself.
Adhesive surface also has convex Is it a Gas puncture hole?
It may be a premise to finish and use.
People who care about small things and clumsy people are cautious.
The overall texture is good.
