Default Which Frame Sliders?

Just curious, but which frame sliders do you prefer.

Im new to the bike community so i dont know much about the brands.

I have an 01 CBR600F4i if that helps.

If you dont mind explaining your decision.


Thanks in advance

vortex - awesome quality and you just replace the pucks when you go down.

With vortex do you have to mod the fairings? Are there any you dont have to mod with?

I like my Shogun sliders. For about $100 you can buy a Shogun crash kit which includes bar ends, frame sliders, and swingarm sliders.

You have an F4i, so the Shogun sliders would work for you since you don't have lugs for swingarm sliders. Also, you will have to cut the fairings to install your sliders. My wife had an 04 F4i before she bought her 05 600RR. I installed her sliders on both bikes - both required cutting. I used a 1 7/8 hole saw and the play-do method.

I have vortex frame sliders too. They're the ones with replaceable pucks as well. I've been fortunate to never have used them, but they look great haha.

Whether or not you "mod" your fairings, or cut them, depends on your bike and not the vortex frame sliders.

OES Accessories. Love their products, they are really good people.

I got the "package" deal that came with sliders and the swingarm spools. Good stuff
