I've used tankslapper film on my VFR for years. I have the standard stuff on there and it works well. Inexpensive yet effective and allows you to still enjoy your beautiful tank. I haven't put it on the CB. No particular reason. If I rode with a tank bag, I'd definitely protect it with the film.
As far as grips go, I just changed mine out. I put on ProGrips #699 (open end). It made a huge difference. Prior to changing the grips, my hands would go numb after an hour and a half of riding and my right hand in particular would stay numb and tingling for hours afterwards. The ProGrips took care of that and I've never felt that again. I've got several thousand miles on the new grips.
Enjoy the wind blast! Sure lets you know you're on a motorcycle. Haha.
