[QUOTE="Knifemaker, post: 492232, member: 1075"] An intresting concept. I should point out that the chair using this idea was made so the seat part was at such an angle that you kind of slid forward, so you had weight on your knees.. and to be precise, you were not supposed to have the weight on your knees, but just under them , on the upper shin bone. (See the photo in the OP? the ladies knees are off the edge of the pad) So , not sure what use a knee pad on the fairing would have unless you could actualy put some of your weight on them, and , being another one here with bad knees, you would have to lower the pad so my knees were not the contact point, but just under them. As an alternative to highway pegs this might be usefull, but again, the problem most have with long time in the saddle is having the knees bent , so one would still want highway pegs to stretch the legs out. It does look like a real good idea to keep you from sliding forward under heavy or sudden braking. KM [/QUOTE]
