I'm starting to look around for a replacement 10 and this caught my eye.

It already has the mods I would do, but it has one I wouldn't do to my road bike, stomp tank grip. With stomp the first thing I think of is a bike copping a flogging at the track. Thoughts?

Real bravery is being afraid but doing it anyway.

I've got the same model and fitted techspec grip (similar to stomp) to protect the paint work on the black side panels under the tank as they cop a flogging from your knees. Even after one ride it was starting to mark so that's one reason I fitted it.

Didn't pick that. They're even bigger than mine.
