Whats the best option if you do not want to cut?

Are the stock ends on the bars strong enough or should they be replaced?

ALl I could afford is liabilty. I need to add some armor.

 

E-Bay for sliders FRAME SLIDERS or COMPLETE NO CUT KIT

If you pull the bar ends you will get a vibration.
Also a problem with the no-cut sliders is if you lay it down hard enough on the left side it can cause the slider mount to bend over and break the water pump elbow.
A $12.00 part to replace , but you have to drop the motor to get to the screws to do it.

 

Thanks Oden,

($12 + $Labor) < ($3,000 body damage) I would think. I will find a good price on these and order them. I did not notice you use any on your beast.

 

I run the frame and swingarm sliders , hard to see on a all black bike



One of the guys from Spring SportBikes went down do to oil on the road this weekend (40MPH lowside) , they do their job.

 

Dayam!

I hear you loud and clear. Surprising I did not see yours before. God knows I have looked at your bike enough.

BTW, where did you get your front signal replacements?

 

Shogun no-cuts are the best no-cut option.

OK, not that I really want to admit I dropped my bike (first time in 10 years)... but from the pics I don't believe the frame sliders do ****... as my 30kph hi-side will show (after hitting a diesel fuel slick in a corner)... my damage is about the same without any sliders. And just for the record the 3 pieces of plastic cost about $800cdn from Honda (2-side and full tail). Just an FYI, but after seeing the damage WITH sliders, I believe they do nothing. YMMV

THat right there is about the saddest thing I have ever seen. I would have seriously cried. Sorry man.

 

For dropping it in a garage or something really slow I think it works great. The fairings are so thing now, they crack very easily. As for laying the bike down at any speed over 30mph, you're SOL either way.
