    Just curious, are the Duluth jeans extra long to cover boots when sitting on the bike? I'm tired of so called motorcycle pants (Bilt comes to mind) that are constantly inching up past my boots.

    Tank knee scuff pads

    They are Honda Racing ones, link: http://www.motosport.com/honda-genui...iber-knee-pads

    I think they make the bike look great , true carbon fiber and it actually says Honda Racing on them:

    I made some patterns of these with my laser cutter out of clear 3m protective material.
    The shape and quality of the cut was great, but what I found is you need to use 3m's Premium clear sheeting.
    I have a black bike and could see the sheeting on the tank, even though clear. I cut some out of the thin, high priced 3m ultra clear, but have not yet installed them.
