Padding under tank

What exactly is the foam padding on the bottom of my 2007 S2R1000 for? Mine is completely denigrated. I'm guessing it's to keep heat away from plastic tank?
Do I need to find something to replace it. If so what should I use?

I "think" it's designed as sound insulation. But, I, along with many others, have taken it off with no ill effects.

If it was, it would be a reflective material

NAKID and stopintime are correct. Just make it disappear.
