Just a quick one, has anyone had problems with seams on textile trousers scratching your tank where ur knees tuck up too?

I know alot of people put tank pads on directly infront but this area is right and left, my trousers seem to be doing damage to mine and im wondering what to do, add protection or replace trousers tbh...

there are no obvious zips or anything you would think would scratch paintwork on the trousers but they do and its driving me nuts Thumbs Up

Probably caused by the material rubbing-in dirt that is already on the tank, which would still happen whatever you were wearing.

You can get clear protective film or self-adhesive shapes that will stop this.

Could sew some soft cloth onto the area in question on the troosers.
