05-06 636 Tail Saver
Does anybody make a tail saver for an 05-06 636? I cant seem to find a picture of one.

I have not had a problem with it braking either, but I am repainting my streeter and **** is mint and I dont want to scratch it up with my shoes. Maybe I will just put some of that clear vinyl **** over the paint or something.

+1 I see people putting them on F4i's as well, but I don't see the need for it. When doing SS, most of my weight is on the rear seat and it supports it no problem.

That's what I've also heard, but I guess that I'm standing more on the rear seat then the tail.

I split my seats like that with my feet and still cracked them a lot.

Maybe if I just did straight line seat standers I wouldn't have, but definitely doing circles (putting pressure on the sides of the tail) and comboing back and forth (which didn't always leave me with perfect footing) caused them to break.

rockn circles has deff done a number to mine...even more so since i dont have a pass seat and the tail savers do help... u can push harder on them and dont have to worry about the **** breaking

Re: 05-06 636 Tail Saver
Just put some StompGrip on and call it a day. You can get a Universal kit that will give you enough to do your tail and possibly tank too. PM me if you need to know where to get it.
