Stompgrip Icon Traction Pads Yamaha YZF-R6 RJ15 2008-2016 — Part No. 55-14-0010

Engineered from premium-grade materials and bonded with industrial 3M adhesive, the Stompgrip Icon Traction Pads for the Yamaha YZF-R6 RJ15 (2008-2016) deliver a refined balance of grip and rider comfort that everyday sports riders will genuinely appreciate. The Icon design sits a step below the aggressive Volcano pattern in abrasiveness, offering around 70-75% of the Volcano's grip in a softer, more forgiving texture that keeps you locked in without punishing your leathers on longer rides.

Key Features

• Icon design pattern: softer texture than the classic Volcano, yet still delivers approximately 70-75% of the Volcano's grip level for confident body control
• Premium 3M adhesive backing ensures a secure, long-lasting bond to the tank surface while allowing clean, residue-free removal when required
• Improved cornering stability under braking, acceleration and mid-corner — direct knee contact with the tank reduces upper-body fatigue and wrist strain
• Protects the tank finish against abrasion, sweat and environmental exposure
• Available in transparent, black and hybrid to suit any colour scheme or personal style preference
• Precision die-cut for a factory-accurate fit on the YZF-R6 RJ15 with no trimming needed

Build Quality and Materials

Stompgrip builds these pads from a durable, high-grip polymer compound that resists heat, moisture and UV degradation — exactly the conditions a track-day or commuting YZF-R6 encounters daily. The surface texture is moulded with consistency across every unit, so you get the same predictable feel pad to pad, season to season. The 3M adhesive layer — a detail often overlooked on cheaper alternatives — is the same industrial-grade film used throughout the automotive and motorsport industries. It conforms precisely to the tank's contours without air pockets, and when you eventually want to remove the pads, the bond releases cleanly without lifting paint or leaving adhesive residue.

Performance and Rider Benefit

Gripping the tank with your knees rather than holding yourself up with your arms is a fundamental technique for smooth, controlled riding, and Stompgrip's Icon pads make that connection far more effective on the slick painted surfaces of the R6 RJ15. The result is a tangible reduction in wrist and forearm load during hard braking events and in sustained corner sequences — particularly relevant on a bike as focused as the YZF-R6. The hybrid variant combines elements of both the Icon and Volcano textures, giving riders the option to tailor grip intensity to their exact riding style without committing to the full abrasiveness of the Volcano pattern.

Colour Options

The transparent variant lets your tank paint or wrap show through completely, keeping the R6's visual lines intact. The black option reinforces the YZF-R6 RJ15's inherently aggressive, race-derived aesthetic. The hybrid colourway blends both materials in a single pad for a distinctive two-tone look alongside the performance benefit.

Fitment and Compatibility

These traction pads are precision-cut to fit the Yamaha YZF-R6 RJ15 across all model years from 2008 to 2016. No modification or trimming is required — the pads locate correctly first time, every time.
