Default Frame sliders

I have a 2005 cbr1000rr and I am in need of some frame sliders for my bike. Are there frame sliders where I don't have to cut into the plastics at all to install them? If you could please provide links that would be awesome.

Some help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Many will argue that the no-cut sliders will fail when they are needed. They have a weak design that puts too much leverage at the point of contact and will bend or break the mount. I can see this as a real issue.

Having said that, I am using no cut sliders on my 05 1000RR. I haven't tested them so I don't have any first hand experience with how well they work. I would imagine the direct line cut sliders are the better option. But I don't see the no-cut's being worse than nothing at all.

I have no idea what brand they are since I've had them for 6 years now, but I bought them on ebay. Just do a search for no-cut frame sliders 1000rr and you'll have many options.
