Claim Text:
1. A control pad system for a motorcycle, comprising: two forward control pads configured to engage a forward surface of a rider's knees or legs with the rider's feet on foot pegs of the motorcycle, the forward control pads mounted to be stationary with frame elements of the motorcycle, wherein the position of the forward control pads constrain the rider's legs from forward motion, enabling the rider to exert pressure on the control pads to resist motion relative to the motorcycle induced by instances of deceleration; two rearward control pads configured to engage a backside surface of the rider's knees or legs with the rider's feet on the foot pegs of the motorcycle, the rearward control pads mounted to be stationary with the frame elements of the motorcycle, wherein the positions of the rearward control pads constrain the rider's legs from rearward motion, enabling the rider to exert pressure on the rearward control pads to resist motion relative to the motorcycle induced by instances of acceleration; wherein the four control pads are mounted to a saddle-like unit that is placed over the motorcycle frame before a seat is added, and adding the seat secures the saddle-like unit and hence the control pads to the frame elements of the motorcycle.
