    Does anyone know of a good vinyl 1/2 tank cover/bra available for a 6th gen VFR? The only one I can find is made by Targa. And from what I hear Targa has done away with their old design (the elastic cord that wrapped around the front of the tank with clips on the edges that grabbed the bottom edge of the tank) which was awesome. Now I understand that they no longer have a elastic cord in the front, only a couple clips on the sides to keep it on. That sucks. I want one like my old one, with the elastic strap in the front that kept it super tight and looking awesome. Does anyone know where I can find a tank bra like this?

    Targa is the only one I've seen as well. Have you considered a Mag-Knight. Might be an alternative for you. They even make them to match the color of your bike.

    I had a Mag-Knight cover and did not care for it at all. It stayed on at all speeds however it never laid down correctly. I tried the hair dryer trick and then it started to crack after 12 months. Kids cut it up and used it for expensive fridge magnets. Now I use a "Honda Racing" tank pad.

    I've got a Second Look tank skin on my RC51. It fits the tank okay and it blends in well enough with the stock graphics.
    I dunno if Second Look ever made a tank skin for the 6th gen. VFR though Rtisan,prolly because there aren't any fancy graphics on the tank.:noidea:
