  • Tank Bra...

    My last xmas gift came in today, from ebay. Katana tank bra, just had to have it, and got it for a song on ebay. The mail came right before I left for work, so I couldnt put it on yet... I noticed the strap on it, Does the tank have to come totally off (hoses disconnected as well) to put the strap underneath, or can I just loosen the bolts under the seat for the tank, and lift it up enough to slide the strap under the front of it? I assume the 3 felt covered pads go under the tank ?

      The pads are felt covered, 3 of them..would I still need to put something else in there besides those?

        no they should absorb wetness well . you dont need to add anything they wont scrach the tank . just make sure there no junk on it when you put it on . and make sure they fit very snug so the wind wont pull it back getting under it or strech it send a pic when you finish

          Yeah, Ive got the CF levers on, CF gas cover, new grips & once the tank bra is on, i'll take a few pics. Still have the gauges to put on, but they'll have to wait till after we move.

          Thanks for the info.

            it's been a minute, but I think all i did was loosen up the fairing bolts and clip it on (remove the seat not the tank) .

                I got the bra on, but im having alittle trouble keeping up high enough on the tank, keeps wanting to slide down, and Im afraid to stretch the strap too much further for fear it will snap.

                      It takes you hand, I use my finger and thumb! It takes about 3 to 10 seconds depending on how many hooks.

                          Somehow Lou turned this into the Victoria's Secret thread!!

                          I can take a bra off with my teeth, but that doesnt help my Kat bra not staying up! :smt026
