    On a Motorcycle you're penetrating distance, right along with the machine!! In a car you're just a spectator, the windshields like a TV!!

    'Life's Journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out! Shouting, ' Holy sh!t... What a Ride!! '

    The fuel cell foam stuff seems to work well in tanks that are succeptable to fuel slosh.
    Adventure type bikes with anything from 18-30L gets a lot of slosh.
    When you've got 10-15kg of fuel slopping around I'd say it would make a perceptable difference.

    Don't the big ones tend to "droop" forwards and low to keep this to a min and keep the weight low and forward?

    They reduce it to an extent but it's still there.
