Been milling around this forum for a while. Guess I should say hello. The BMW part comes from cars not bikes. I'm an old Harley rider from the foothills of NC. I've been fighting off the sport bike crave for many years but this new model pushed me over the edge. Haven't got to put many miles on it yet, work and weather, but what I have been a blast. Springs on the way with summer around the counter. Want to thank everyone for help and info. Maybe I'll get to meet some later on.

Welcome and congrats.
Tank cover is carbon fiber. I love the look of carbon on this bike. It matches the Ti Force pipes. Did a fairly good job of covering up the strips on the tank. I put the tank pad back on top for protection. Thinking about adding the top tank guard. May be to much carbon fiber. Haven't make up my mind.
Welcome and hello! Very nice bike.

This is a stick on to stay. Cost was around $200 shipped to the states. I live on the east coast and it got here in week. Took a couple days for them to make. Great people to work with. The only thing I did different from what they said was to cover the area for install with soppy water. This keeps the tape from sticking in the wrong place. When I got it where I wanted it I taped it down. In 10 to 15 minutes the water dried and it was on for good.
