Any pro's or con's on stompgrip?
I have it on my tank and though I havent ridden this particular bike without, all of my others did not have it... Im not a fan. I get the function but my personal opinion is that they are ugly and uncomfortable for a street bike. I can ride the same with or without.

Look up techpadz. Same thing less bite on the clothes/leathers..
Street= not needed
Track= yes, handy to have...until they dry/harden over time.

Even on the track you won't use them that much either. When I start braking hard I'm already moving my body into position for the next corner entry, hence I will not be needing to put pressure on the tank.
We're talking about the nubbly thing on the sides of the tank? Never had em.
Some sort of tank pad is preferable either on the street or track. I just feel more connected to the bike
i have had stomps on my bike for a couple years and rode it without them before, i like it better with it. i think a lot of the comfort has to do with your situation to the tank. if you slide around a lot they help with stability, i am tall, so i slide around a lot if i get lazy holding on with my legs. the stomp makes it so i can be a little lazy on a long ride
the techspec IMO is better and has many uses for street application.
