Console Knee Pads

Do the skins actually give you coverage over the top edge of the plastic? A couple of times this week I caught the edge. Knees are not liking the viper right now.

You can stick them/install them anywhere you need them...

Wish I saw this before I drilled holes for the Yami ones...

I removed the yami ones I had on there (so I had holes)... The skinz ones covered up the holes. Allows for some increased venting..lol

I don't like the Yamaha ones either.. were a pain in the a$$ to put on too..would be better with none

Right on... they suck... I tore them off after the first ride added Nytro pads and put slim jim woodys on and got rid of the nasty darting.

How long did it take to get them? Did you order online?

I actually found them and ordered mine through Amazon...which is free shipping!! Just type in the part # and/or description.

Yamaha knee pads?!

I got the Yamaha pads home and after inspecting them I returned them.

They are cheap looking and did not look like they would be comfortable. IMO they have no place on a machine of this quality/price point.

Looking into the skins, but will log some miles first to see if they are necessary.

Good choice and Very nice. Like that they wrap around a bit to the side. Yamaha ones are acceptable to me but I can see that the fit will not be good to a lot of riders.

I agree the Yamaha pads are a bit small. About how thick are the Skinz pads?

Not thick but they are super comfy.... just right if you ask me

Thanks for the reviews on the knee pads. Bought the Skinz last year and after several rides, and some on very bumpy terrain, the Skinz performed great for standing and sitting. They also help when shifting side to side. Easy to install and easy to remove (Velcro) and clean/wash adjust if needed. Great coverage and right amount of padding. My knees thank you all.

Muffin Works (site sponsor) had some nice knee pads that they were showing some of us last season. I haven't had the need for pads, but if I did I would be considering theirs in the mix as well.
