steadyeddie Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 (edited) It's called Technosel available in clear and carbon weave, BVM sell it, and yes it is very good and sticks very well as long as you degrease well Edited December 30, 2005 by SteadyEddie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 You can pick it up from most car parts suppliers i.e. main dealers. I used it when I bought my new 04 gasser and the frame is still untouched.When applying have the tank and air box off so that it can be fixed over the edges of the frame, this makes it more difficult for it to start pealing on areas of excessive wear.Generally works a treat and personally I think it looks better than all the after market protectors, the tape is almost unseen!

Very thick and sticky, use a hairdryer when putting it on and it will bend to almost any shape. When I got my last bike, I used it on both sides of the tank and the swinging arms. Still looks good 9 months later and protects the bike well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ham2 Posted January 5, 2006 Report Share Posted January 5, 2006 Use the hairdryer technique to remove technosel- I didn't and it pulled some of the chrome off my old gasser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
