Anybody know of any frame sliders that you don't need to cut fairing to mount.

I'm told crash Knobs (with their respective mounting brackets) still require some slicing of the fairing...

I got my frame sliders for the 12 from this guy...

which directs to his eBay store
I know he sells frame sliders and also stuff for the 10
maybe check it out

and the frame sliders for my 12...require no cutting
straight bolt on

hth

I got my sliders from this guy too. There no cut for 10 but are alloy not delrin. Will still do the job and at $50 the price was right.

There on ebay, I think he is in Perth..

I got a set from NZ, but thats a whole different story.

When ur looking for frame sliders get the decent chunky ones on the little pissy ones that go onto the fairing. I think the 10R is pretty ok as u dont have to cut the fairing.

There are cheaper imataion ones that cost about $60 to ur door and do the same job. Ebay is full of them.

I've just checked the ebay store of RatedR, it seems the sliders are retailing at $70 plus postage..

Where do they bolt on? I assuming its the engine mounts?? so the left side should be a breeze, but what about the right hand side??

They fix to the lower engine mounting bolt behind the fairing and are mounted on a a flat plate to bring the slider puck outside the fairing.

i thought the 10R sliders attached to the top engine mounts which are exposed.

I seen it at Peter stevens in melb on an orange 10

'crash Knobs' are the best because they use an elaborate bracket system that goes under the radiator, mounting to the engine mounts is apparently not a good idea.
They are expensive, but they saved all my fairings when i had a little mishap with them on.

kenma website should have pics in the mounting instructions Hoff. for Oggys anyway.

Better to spend the money and get oggies they work for sure mine have been tested on the six a few times and are holding up well (shoe laces get caught up in the rear brakes dohhh).

I bought some cheap sliders from the states made of delrin and dropped the bike in the garage and it shattered into a million small peices, the crash knob that is.

Just checked it out, they dont do em for the 12, i think because there is no appropriate mounting points due to the Monocoque frame.
