glad to see you're not beat up to bad do like the mesh look in the vent area also noticed what appeared to be a frame slider mounted at the lower engine bolt which appeared to have bent in the accident there was some question earlier in this section concerning the use of frame sliders and whether or not it would cause the bike to pivot around the frame slider just curious as to how it performed during a crash and would also like to wish you a speedy recovery

mine was kinda like that before I got it, just needs plastic and a triple tree, though. If you've go the dough, re, me, few other quality of life investments match in my book.

HARDCORP the frame sliders i made im the machine shop i work in couldn't have worked any better, i think if i didnt have them i wouldnt have any plastics left (i actually just got done plastic welding the upper and mid fairings back togeather and had them painted today, for the second time in the year i had this bike) so now i amd getting some smaller odd and end things on the bike so i hopefully can take the bike out 2morow But if you want to put on frame sliders similar to what i have on there do it they work really good ill up load a picture (couple) so you guys can see how to fit them in and yes it involves a little cutting with a dremel but they deff. keep the bike from becoming totally junk.

I have already installed a set and posted a how to thread for those non-machine shop non-welding individuals who would like to install a set I took a little bit of criticism about their installation here is the thread if you have pictures of how you madeand installed yours please feel free to add them to that thread I really wished you would add something to that thread

The bike doesn't look too bad.

**Hey Hardcorp I wasnt criticising u. I think u did a great job. I was voicing my concerns on using oggy's on a bike not designed for them.

Yeah I was thinking that if I made them out of modlers clay would a machine shop be able to copy them.

Then again I wonder if its possible to make them in Kevlar/CF?
