Does anyone know of pre-cut tank pads for the NT700V? The knee pad pockets on my riding jeans have a small zipper in the inseam. I'm a knee-gripper, and want to cover the paint on the indents.
Or maybe a source of good, cuttable sheets of the right material?
Thanks.

Honda made them as an OE accessory. I have them on my bike. I will see if I can find a P/N for you. Some dealer may have 'em in stock or else you might be able to find a used pair online.

Here you go! The carbon fiber pads are P/N 08P61-MEW-200E and the polyurethane pads are P/N 08P72-MEW-100. Both numbers are shown as still active at Parts Fish.com @ $71.96 for each set.

I use the clear removable stuff now and again although I must admit to a retro look style.

Hey, it's nearly the same wet weight as my new-for-me 2013 CB500F! :)

Here is an interesting bit of Honda history on the fate of the 450 and how the 750 came to be.....
