I did a search and most results were old. I am looking for side pads and top protection under the OEM tank bag. Recommendations? Pics if you got 'em. (Not really fond of the turban dude...)

I use clear protective film from a company called Tank Slapper. They make a pre-cut kit for the Super Tenere. I've had it on my bike for many thousands of miles while using a tank bag, with no scratches to the tank. Protects against things like jacket zippers too.

Here is the side of my bike with the TechSpec on. Bag is magnetic, and no problems. Also have the center strip on, and the lower magnet does grip through the pad, although it isn't as strong as not going through it. My bag has the "wings" with magnets that provide most of the "grip".

I did mines and were hand made, easy, NO Cost and very effective to protect the tank side.
