It certainly makes a difference when someone with the proper kit and know-how takes a few pics of your bike (MY2000 748R) - even got a male model in for the last one :
Nice pics (nice bike)! Apart from the one with the dodgy looking oik grabbing your saddle. You really should think twice before you park your bike in those rundown areas.... LOL
They are by R&G. Fine for use on the street against denim or canvas pants. But if you do track days (I have another bike for that stuff) then Stomp Grips are much better for grip against leather.
