[Fot] Those bare metal Triumph accelerators

hmmmm thought about that too but dropped that idea speedly after a short
test.
The troublesome thing is "going on throttle". With much grip on the pedal
surface the pedal don't slip smoothly along the shoe anymore which makes the
ride very rough and dangerous when accelerating out of a corner.

Cheers

    Not a Triumph accelerator, but my Formula Ford has a small piece
    of the stuff they put on skateboard decks.  Works well to give you
    some grip.  One piece costs about $25, as I recall, but will last you
    a lifetime.
