Installing a Motorcycle Tank Guard

Alright now we're going to install this tank guard. It's a carbon fiber piece, basically it just mounts right here on the tank that way when you lean up against it the zipper on your jacket or whatever doesn't scratch your tank all up. So this is pretty much just for protection, you can get these at any motorcycle store. So what you want to do is clean the tank real good and I like to put a little alcohol on a rag and wipe it down real good, that way it sticks a lot better. Stand centered behind the bike, find out where it looks the best as far as protecting the bike and being centered which I think is right there. Press it down real firm; make sure that it's all good. Bam, you got a little added protection now for so your jackets don't scratch your tank. And that's pretty much it, you can get these anywhere; motorcycle store they make all kinds of different colors and stuff that matches your bike. We're going to do a lot of carbon fiber on this bike later on. So that's what we chose to do. So there it is.
