Looks sorta like a hybrid of a traditional tank extender/cover with the Monkey Grip extension.

Looks horrible to me. They mimic’ed the flat top you commonly see in dedicated race bikes but they didn’t really change the hook in profile, and although the top of the tank is flat it’s WAY to high above the seat, so it creates that horrible high angle I circled that at least for me would dig into me sternum in a tuck.
Compare the tank height above the seat to a real race prepped tank versus this ‘WSBK’ tank cover.

Yeah but the monkey grip stuff tapers both down and inward so that weird stick in your gut angle isn’t there.

I’ve tried just about every option out there, Monkeys grips are 2nd place for best ergonomics, but the hands down winner by a wide margin is the RADE Garage setup for track, the tank shape is perfect and you get the wider seat all in one clean neat package. It’s actually so good that it takes some adjusting to. Because it fundamentally solves all the seat and tank ergo deficiencies of our bikes by complete redesign of it.
It’s about like the Aprillia RSV4 and Kramer GP2 but with a wider seat.
