Tank Side Protection Pads For Triumph Street Triple - 2013 to 2022

Tank Side Protection Pads for Triumph Street Triple (2013 to 2022)

The Triumph Street Triple has a narrow, sculpted fuel tank that places the rider's knees and inner thighs in direct contact with the tank sides when gripping the bike. Without protection, the paint on the tank sides wears over time from clothing contact, luggage friction, and regular mounting and dismounting. These tank side protection pads are a pair of adhesive-backed panels that mount directly to the tank side surfaces, providing a wear-resistant layer between the rider's gear and the tank finish.

The pads are cut from 3M or equivalent self-adhesive material and are available in multiple finishes including matte black, gloss black, carbon fiber look, and clear (invisible protector). The carbon fiber look option suits the Street Triple's sporty character and visual language. The clear option protects the existing paint without adding visible material. Installation is a peel-and-stick process — no heat, no drilling, no modification to the bike. The adhesive is strong enough to resist highway-speed airflow and wash-off, and can be removed cleanly if needed without damaging factory paint.

The pads are pre-cut to match the Street Triple's tank panel geometry. They sit flush with the tank contour and do not affect knee grip or rider ergonomics. The surface texture provides a modest amount of additional grip for the rider's inner leg during cornering, which is a secondary benefit over pure paint protection.

Confirmed fitment for the Triumph Street Triple 675 and 765 across all variants — R, RS, S — from 2013 through 2022. The tank profile remained consistent across the 675 and 765 generations, and the pad geometry covers both. Not confirmed for the 2023 and later facelift models.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the adhesive damage the factory paint?

The pads use a pressure-sensitive adhesive formulated for automotive paint. Removal should be done slowly and at room temperature; using a hair dryer to warm the edges helps release the adhesive without pulling paint. If the factory paint is already compromised (stone chips, prior repairs), test a small section before full installation.

Do they cover the whole tank side?

The pads cover the main high-wear contact zone on the Street Triple's tank — the center and upper portions of the side panels where knee and thigh contact is heaviest. They do not cover the lower tank panels or the area near the frame rails.
