Tandem Padding?
Also have you fabricated you own padding for the frame? If so what did you use? I see it is avaiable from Co-Motion for $$$.
Thanks

not sure what we're talking about here. If it's padding for an S&S coupler tandem used in transit, Pipe insulation foam works well and is very cheap.

The padding available from s&s is very durable and is easy to custom cut to fit your tandem. Use a silver sharpie to label each piece for future reference. You will need two rolls at least.

Agree on pipe insullation.
Avaiable in various cutable lengths and diameters.
Most hardware stores or Lowes or Home Depots keep a large stock.
Cheap, effective and reusable.
