People are definately happy with their bike stands, so I am sure the same quality goes into their sliders.

I'd buy 'em.

Not a bg fan of the no cuts. That bracket is the most bearing piece and the weakest. Just cut a hole in your fairings.

look at the opening on the F4/i and what do you see??? The cylinder head right? not sumtin I want a slider getting crammed into when that bracket bends/breaks. And IMO they look like shyt sticking out of that opening.

I came down onmycut sliders hard, so hard that it cracked the slider in half. I think with the no cuts it would have broke that bar that hold it and possibly caused more damage than a real cut slider.

Hayden...do not buy those. If the choice is those or nothing at all, I would chose nothing at all. I have heard many stories of no cuts causing more damage, like Schira has alluded to. Cut your plastic, dude...everyone is doing it...it will make you feel good. How's my peer pressure working out?

I am ok with certain no-cut sliders, but those brackets look too long to not bend in a situation.

are there any other no cuts you would recommend? they are basically for some low speed 20-30 mph prking lot cornering practice.
