Anyone have same "probs" I have with having to sit so far forward on seat at certain times that tank is, let's say, bit uncomfortable and could use some "cushion"??  Considering tank pad, but not sure if any available for newer 696 with split tank...maybe a "strip" kind of protector just for middle piece?  Oh and NOT CF or clear???   
Tried contacting Immortal Graphix, who DO custom tank pads, but they cannot seem to give me a straight up answer if anything they have will work with 696.
Tks all and looking forward to suggestions-and pix if u can of course!

try getting the Ducati Performance seat, doens't shove you forward like the stock seat.

The touring seat is much more comfortable then the stock seat, but it still puts you too far forward. I'm having some extra padding and a little slope put into the front of my touring seat by a local uphoulstry guy. I'll post pics when I get a chance.
