I am a fan of Tech Spec and have had them on many bikes.
I now have the tank covers on my F6B and am wondering if anyone has put any Tech Spec pannier covers on and which one they chose because the F6B is not listed as a pannier item.

I have this one on my 2016 F6b deluxe.

I have these installed and like them.
I have a issue with the adhesive at the Tech spec logo.
They sent me a left side and go figure the right has started to let go. I don't know if I am just going to go to a local sign shop and see if it can be fixed.
They were top notch on my last bike..

Mine were put in last fall and the adhesive has held up well so far. I did, however, use a hair dryer while applying the two knee areas to get the things to not be quite so stiff and then held them there with some cords, weights (and towels to protect the paint) overnight.

Whenever I order a Tech Spec I ask them to use the aggressive glue.
I clean the area with alcohol swabs then heat to warm the bike and the Tech Spec.
Then apply. The claim to fame for Tech Spec is that they are removable and you can reapply.
WARNING: If you get the aggressive glue be sure you get the placement correct the first time because the glue they use is VERY strong!! but they can still be removed but it is hard and sometimes the glue separates from the rubber.
