I'd really like to add some frame sliders to my 04 600RR but do not want to cut the plastics. Does any know if they make no cut style frame sliders for this bike? Any pics or links would be great. Thank you.

theres a link...... but almost everyone is going to say dont do no cuts... along with me because its easier to break bolts with no cuts.... but all said and done its ur call

 

+1 they make em, but their not worth the trouble nor money. If you're gonna do it, do it right or dont do it at all.

 

Yep, you've been told but just to impress it upon you. Don't waste your money. If you go down, they will break off. They are almost worthless. Save your money for a real set of frame sliders which actually bolt to the frame instead of over it.

 

dont get no cuts... because as easy as the instillation is, they are more prone to bend or break and not protect your fairings

 

they're not intended to protect the fairings but rather the frame. Thosome times at low speeds they do protect the fairings from alot of damage.

 

+1 common misconception.

 

Thanks guys. I'm looking for something to protect the fairings from scratches in the event of the bike tipping over, not for crash protection really. Bike is not very stable on the kick stand, I've come close a few times with uneven ground to having it fall over.

Do you think these would surve that purpose?

 

In most cases no, a cage might be more of what your looking for but even then im sure somethings going to break. Best advice, don't drop it. Make sure you park on level ground.

 

Agreed. The best way to not mess up your fairings is not to drop it. There are no guarantees with frame sliders or a cage as protecting the fairings is not really what they're made to do.
