Hope I win this or the Euro lottery!!
Sorry mate, but this answer doesn't make any sense at all. The tank pads which are available in C3 will get much more of a hammering that any box top protector. The tank pads get used every single time you get on the bike and the whole time you are riding your legs move around where as the box protectors get used only when you have the boxes on and only when you have something strapped to the top of the box. The C3 is a much softer more forgiving material so would be the ideal material for these pads. The snakeskin is too hard and the high fusion is too thin to protect the top of the box. Th ideal material would be self adhesive closed cell rubber foam which would be similar in it's characteristics to C3.TechSpec_TankGrips said:The Reason we do not offer the C3 material is because its not as Durable as our High Fusion and Snake Skin Materials. These materials are a durable synthetic rubber compound allowing the product to last several years. We want to make sure the Box Covers will withstand all the abuse you'll be giving them! ::001::
Good comments my friend.. You are right, the reason we brought these out are for protecting the boxes when items are tied down, it is not an every day product.. For you gents who can't stand scratches and use your boxes quite often these can help from the added abuse.Poohbear said:Sorry mate, but this answer doesn't make any sense at all.

Sounds like a great idea. I would be very gratefulTechSpec_TankGrips said:Good comments my friend..

The designers don't think the C3 material can withstand the added abuse since its an open cell compound. (not by much) but it is a pores material..
With that said, maybe we should send you a C3 Kit to R & D so you can let us know if it holds up to expectations?!? What do you Think??
I think you really mean ERENET (TENERE in reverce), ::014:: if that's so, thank you very much. ::003::TechSpec_TankGrips said:AND THE WINNERS ARE!!! ::018::
