Tasty! I was just shopping for some of those today - where did you get them?

Let us know how they work under demanding conditions (hard braking and cornering).  I've got Stomp Grip on mine and it works great, but it does cause some wear on my leathers inside the knees.

I just installed a set of Gripsters on my VFR as well.  I'm partial to the fusion style rather than the snake skin.

I love them and think they work great--they help me use my legs to support my torso as well as keeping my lower body from moving around.  I have them on all of my sport bikes and they are on the short list of mods that get done to all new-to-me bikes.

Interesting, the product listing shows a grey 6th Gen and says they're made for 2001-2007, but looks like there is a red 5th gen in the product photos.  Is there no material difference in the tank designs of the two Gens?
