FAQs

What material are the tank grip pads made from?

The pads are made from Onedesign's proprietary "HDR" material, which is a durable rubber blend designed for maximum grip.

Will these pads protect my tank from scratches?

Yes, the durable material and design help protect your tank from scratches caused by zippers, buckles, and other external factors.

How difficult is it to install the tank grip kit?

The kit is designed for easy positioning and application. With careful alignment and firm pressure, installation is straightforward.

Can I remove the tank grip pads later?

While the adhesive is strong, the pads can typically be removed. However, there is a small risk of residue or minor paint damage, especially on older paint finishes. It is recommended to consult a professional if you are concerned about removal.

Are these pads suitable for all weather conditions?

Yes, the Hi-Strength adhesive is designed to hold up to heat and remains pliable in the cold, ensuring reliable performance in various weather conditions.

Will the adhesive damage my motorcycle's paint?

The Hi-Strength adhesive is designed for strong hold. While generally safe for OEM paint, it is always recommended to test in an inconspicuous area or consult your motorcycle's manual if you have concerns about aftermarket paint or protective coatings.

What is the lifespan of these grip pads?

Made to withstand harsh conditions, these pads are engineered to deliver years of reliable service when properly installed and cared for.

Troubleshooting

Grip pad not adhering properly

Ensure the tank surface was thoroughly cleaned and dried before application. Reapply pressure. If the issue persists, the adhesive may be compromised; consider replacing the pad.

Grip pad peeling at the edges

Check for dirt or moisture trapped under the edge. Clean the area gently and reapply firm pressure. If the adhesive has lost its tackiness, replacement may be necessary.

Material feels sticky or degrades

Avoid using petroleum-based cleaners or solvents on the pads. Clean only with mild soap and water. If degradation occurs, it may indicate exposure to extreme conditions or a manufacturing defect.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the motorcycle's tank surface is clean, dry, and free from any grease, wax, or debris. Use a recommended degreaser and allow it to dry completely.
  2. Carefully align the tank grip pads on the tank. It is recommended to use masking tape to temporarily hold them in place to confirm the exact positioning before applying permanent adhesive.
  3. Once positioned, slowly peel back the adhesive backing from one edge and press the pad firmly onto the tank, working out any air bubbles as you go.
  4. Apply firm pressure across the entire surface of the pad for at least 30 seconds to ensure proper adhesion.

Compatibility:

This kit is specifically designed for the Yamaha YZF-R6 600 models from 2008 to 2016. It is not compatible with other motorcycle models or different year ranges of the YZF-R6.

Care:

To clean the tank grip pads, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or high-pressure washers, as these can damage the material or adhesive. Regular cleaning will help maintain the grip and appearance of the pads.
