Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
