Was their the middle section included in your kit?
Im very interested in the tech spech route for tank pads... Who has what? i was looking into the thickest one, any good and bad feed back?
And overall my biiggest question is are these really removable like they say? I have the 2012 with matte finish and dont want to ruin it if i dont like the tank pads... It looks like they peel right off but has anyone had actual experience in doing so?
Does anyone live in a similar climate to an Aussie summer that has these? A bloke I met the other weekend said he came back to his parked bike and one of these pads was sitting on the ground next to his bike. Reckons it must have just got hot and peeled itself off....
I'm not real keen to spend money on these if they're going to come off at the first piss stop

Not sure if it compares, but I live in South Texas, and it stays in the 90-100 degree F range for a while. I've had my tech spec grips for a season, and they haven't moved at all.
They do suggest during installation to heat up the surface that it's being adhered to. So I used a heat gun to get the tank warm, and put them on. I think heating it up allowed for it to get a nice bond with the tank. Same thing goes if you ever want to easily take them off. Heat them up with an external heat source, and peel them off. But the hot sun won't do this.
