Your motorcycle’s tank faces a daily risk of scratches from straps, buckles on your motorcycle riding gear, or even luggage. This gel tank pad from Oxford offers more than just protection against that. The raised gel structure also absorbs shocks and impacts better than a regular flat tank pad.
The gel material provides softer cushioning when your motorcycle riding gear, luggage systems, or a passenger come into contact with the tank. This not only prevents superficial scratches but also deeper damage caused by repeated friction or sudden hits. Of course, it’s not a full shock absorber, but every bit helps, and the extra gel layer doesn’t interfere in any way.
The universal shape fits most motorcycles, but you can trim the pad smaller for smaller tanks. Measuring 210 by 150 millimetres, it covers the most vulnerable area. The weather-resistant material holds up in all conditions and retains its protective qualities over a long time.
This Tank Pad Gel Spine is available in black and carbon finishes, so you can choose a version that suits your motorcycle best. The raised gel structure not only offers better protection but also provides a bit more grip, which can be handy while riding.
This is a practical upgrade compared to standard flat tank pads – though Oxford does offer those too, with the Tank Pad Spine.
