Hey, I was wondering if there are frame sliders that do not require body modification?

 

i just posted about this ...there is ..but aparently they do more damage then good when u wipe out ..like snap your fairing ..sooo im gonna bite the bullet and drill some holes!

 

Uggg...i'll probably end up doing more harm than good installing the damn things, might as well take the risk and hope i don't drop the bike

 

lol well if ur taking the chance of *not* dropping it u woudlnt need them at all then ...i looked into it drilling the hole is pretty easy

They're called "no-cut" frame sliders. But they're more like "fairing sliders". They don't bolt to the frame. Get real frame sliders. Cheap insurance.

 

as mentioned there are frame sliders that don't require cutting

THEY SUCK

get the good stuff (I like vortex), if you take your time its damn near impossible to mess the job up. All you have to do is figure out where to drill straight from the bolt hole in the frame out to the fairing, drill a small pilot hole and the use a 2" hole saw to cut out the hole and your done, easy as hell

I've done it 3 times on my F4i and haven't messed up yet

 

^ Three times?

Three fairings?

 

I've drilled 6 holes, done the whole job 3 times

 

I nearly put myself in cardiac arrest the first time! I could NOT do that a second time!

 

hey woody mang...tell them how awesome frame sliders work...buhhaahah...
i went down once with them...worked awesome to save the fairings, but it's about saving the frame not the fairings, that's just a side benefit.
