Sjthjs Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I'm looking for a full tank cover for my Dragstar Classic. I've seen loads of 'covers' that cover the speedo area, front to back, but I really want one that covers the entire tank? Anyone got one, and if so, where from and how much? Has to be genuine leather too. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ttaskmaster Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Never heard of them being available. Hein Gericke used to stock some leather all-over tank covers for certain models of sports bike. They had luggage points on that a tank bag clips on to. I think they were intended for those with plastic tanks. Could try asking them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its mainly because its 10 years old now, and the paint on the sides of the tank is going dull (from legs rubbing against) I wondered if there was such a thing for a Dragstar. I've seen them on Kawasaki ZXs, and thought that they must exist for customs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ttaskmaster Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Surprisingly, no. Bagster have nothing listed for any Cruiser. Cruisers, especially Customs, tend to have fancy paintwork that you want to show off. About the best you'll get are clear plastic panels that stick on over the paintwork. That, or make your own. It's not cheap... but not that expensive, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The leather centre strips look OK, but don't solve the problem of dul paint on the side of the tank. Unless I settle for a tank bra, a cover that encases the rear portion of the tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
