Just joined and purchased this 959 which has had a few mods and I love it! Looking forward to learning more about it through the forum. Based in Wales UK.
You’ll understand them if one of the tops was leaking, splattered fluid all over your dash and melted it
Welcome and congrats on the Pani' definitely one of the best sorts bikes ever made, especially with the Akro exhausts, near perfection!
Sorry just don't get it. Get a nice set of these and show those puppies proudly! Surely you'd want to see if its leaking instead of having no brake or clutch? also they get wet and saggy in the UK. Could always protect the dash screen.
Personally I prefer the look of the 'socks'. (but hey, each to their own). My brake ressy did have a mild leak a while back, (didn't damage anything luckily) so put these on as insurance in case it re-occurred. Mine don't ever see the rain so the wet/soggy thing is a non issue - plenty of dry days down this end of the world for riding.
