So I miss having a pocket on the bike where I keep my garage door opener.  So I'm thinking of getting a tank bib.  Specifically, a tank bib from PH Custom:

https://phcustoms.com/Honda-Valkyrie-Interstate-Standard-Tourer-Tank-Bib-Bra-Chap-1500--P89522.aspx

These guys seem to be half the cost of Talisman or similar.  Does anyone have any experience with PH Customs?  Or tank bibs in general?  Do they do bad things to your paint?

Thanks.

Do they do bad things to your paint?

I think they probably do. I had a Heritage one on my bike
from the beginning and it "left a mark"... not really bad, but
still, not totally benign... I really liked having it though, a
little pocket and a gas cap cover... I have a Talisman one
now... with a little pocket and a gas cap cover...

I keep mine in the pocket of my mesh jacket. I can press the button coming down the road and coast into the garage.

I like the bibs made by Hopnel. They do not damage the paint.
