For the side of the tank I use Stomp Grip. They are about $50 for both sides. For the top I just got one from eBay.

Partial to the Bagster Tank Cover. Had them on six consecutive bikes with all three Busas, my ST1100, and my Z1000. Tank bags clip to the cover and are universal to the Bagster brand. A bit pricey, but the sport-touring community loves them.

How does your paint hold up under those? Do you have to take them off to clean under them often?

Hi. It looks like I am out of luck on the headlights and the tank cover the 9005 and H7 will not fit my headlight and the cover will not fit my thank.

Never take it off, and doesn't rub the clear coat off like the tank bras did.

If paint is a concern, then get a roll of Racer Tape (google it), and tape the tank first before you install whatever cover you decide to go with.

I have Tech Spec on the sides and the whole back end of the tank is covered in 3M paint protection film (extends down into the seat contact areas also!). Works for me.

Hi

Like the top box rack, where did you get that from?
Mines similar but has side handles for the pillion which I don't need and are unsightly :-(
