Put this on the other day and damn is it grippy. I think it might be too grippy, i was having a hard time sliding off to lean in a turn lol. I will deal with it for a few more days if i still dont like it its coming off.

You will get to love them, trust me. That's what I thought when I got mine, but I don't see how I'd ride without them now.

did you put all of it on?

i didnt put the pieces on the tank.. just the small ones on the trim piece.. gives me just enough grip for street riding. id probably put the tank strips on for the track though.

we have heard that from a good bit of people, but you do get use to them as the above person stated. Just give them a bit of time and you'll adjust to them and love them. The tech specs are a bit less aggressive so you could always try that next time.
