Spent this afternoon installing my paint protection kit from Tankslapper. Those guys RAWK. I had three desiderata for a pattern: it should be a nice accent for the bike (so not the clear 3M stuff); it should cover up a small blemish on the top of the tank; and it should protect the rest of the paint from my leathers, tank bags, etc. Lucas at Tankslapper custom designed a pattern for me and spent over 30 mins on the phone with me, teaching me how to do the installation (it was really quite tricky because of the sharp contours of the tank). Thanks to his patience, I was able to get it done in about 2 hrs today -- with the help of my beautiful assistant, aka my wife.
Anyway, there is one more piece to go on the front of the tank, but Lucas is still getting the size right. But I like it a lot, even as it stands, so I thought I would share.
