    Hello everyone..

    Finally I managed to get my hands on RC200.. Absolutely love her.. Problem is I keep skidding to and fro.. Hence I decided to get a pair of tank grip pads for the sides.. It's the stompgrip universal one.. My friend got it for me from the States.. Now the ultimate question.. How do I stick it?? Seen a lot of YouTube videos and tutorials.. But some help from someone more local and experienced will be appreciated.. Someone who has done it before.. The reason is I have 0 experience and I have only one pair so, can't experiment..
    I'm not even sure of they are reusable..

    Help me please..

    Thanks..
    Ajay

    live long.. live happy.. that's the best revenge that can be served to the people who hate you..

      Photos please.. I desperately need one, if possible can you share how you bought it?

      Sorry your second post was missed while I replied. Well, I think you might get some first hand experience from other threads (e.g. Ninja 250 or 300).

      BTW: Your post for Stompgrip ranks 1 in Google with this keyword "stompgrip tank grip pads for ktm rc"

          Kindly refrain from using SMS lingos. I have edited your post, please make sure you make your post concise next time.

          Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
          The girl said, 'NO!'


          And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.


          THE END

              If your motorcycle is under warranty, then you need not shoot a mail to them the warranty will automatically take over. If the SVC guys refuse to replace, considering the warranty period active, then you can escalate the issue to KTM.

                  It cost me $50.00 approx.

                  My friend got it for me from the USA..

                  I hopefully get it fitted this Sunday and if I do, I'll add pics..

                    Wouldn't that color look too contrast? Let's wait an see the outcome after pasting. BTW, the first pic was too small to judge the actual size, thanks for giving us the perspective view in the second pic.

                      I think that cream color you see is the adhesive backing, which is removed to stick the stompgrips. The grips are clear type.

                            Nice, these are the universal ones. I have the same on my Ninja 250 since I couldn't get the ones specifically for the bike.

                            Make sure you have a heat gun or at least a hair dryer handy to have a clean fit. The edges might cause a problem if not fit correctly in the 1st go.

                            All the best.
                            Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.

                              It's supposed to be transparent.. I'm hopeful of it.. The other color theatre was available was black..
