It's so you don't scratch up the tank with yourjacket zippers and such.

I can see the need on a sports bike, where you are laying over the tank all the time. Not really an issue on a cruiser. Just my 2 cents.

RE: Tank Bra

I've accidentlyput scratches on cruiser tanks with my leather. If it wasn't for the fact they mess up your paint, I'd put a bra on this sporty.

Okay... so let me see if I got this right. The thing made to keep you from messing up your paint - messes up your paint?[&:]

RE: Tank Bra

I guess my jackets have bigger zippers than yours or I'm shorter or something, but I have scratched every bike I've owned. I hazes the paint, but to me that's a lot better than scratching things up. I kinda like the look of it....

RE: Tank Bra

Had one on my 03 Hugger last year. Had more problems with belt buckles and zipper scratching the tank than hazing marks from the bra. Also liked the look. My .02.
