wow two examples of the aluminum not causing catastrophic problems, i'm so impressed
your right it does grind down but its not as soft and predictable as delrin and has no advantage, so why do they sell them? Because squids and posers love aluminum sliders

delrin is the best material for sliders, grinds down just right so that its not too hard for slow speed crashes but not too soft for high speed slides. Aluminum is too hard, there is no reason for it other than looks, I go for function over form

 

I have Chrome ones LOL

but yeah.. they ARE just for looks =P

 

LOL...i take it woody doesn't like aluminum? muahahahhaha...

all sliders are "designed" to slide...but as woody stated, choice of material is way key as far as design...and aluminum just doesn't cut it.

slide on nice smooth asphalt you may be ok...slide on not so prime asphalt and it will flip the bike. derlin is just a much better choice by far!

 

yep, I've had a grudge since I heard they call it "aluminium" over in the UK

damn Brits ruin everything lol

 

No pics of any installed huh?

 

"RACE RAILZ ARE THE ULTIMATE IN STREET PROTECTION, 10X MORE PROTECTION THAN SLIDERS!"


uhhh.... Never trust anything where there is no mention of the proof behind the claim.

 

Bit we Brits say aluminium as its the correct way to say it..rather than the alooominum that you boys use... lol

 

Can anyone tell me if you have to cut fairings on a cbr 600f4i 2006, mine is brand new and I don't want to cut my new frames but really want protection, I cannot find the no cut sliders anywhere and dont want a full heavy cage....

 

yes you have to cut, almost all f4i sliders you need to cut.

i got a powers cage on mine, didnt have to cut though

 

What cage do you have that you didn't have to cut any fairings??? I just want good protection with no cutting....
