Can anyone suggest a particular brand/type of frame sliders that don't require too much modification/cutting to the bodywork? Thanks much.

The LSL Crash pads are my personal favorite

I agree lsl are sweeeet loking and you can replace just the plastic if you go down instead of the whole slider.

Thx

What a good question!

This is absolutely true because paying 150$ US for a kit of frame slider that will not save us any penny in case of a crash or at worse will cause some other dammage because they broke or something else, this is not a good investment!

On my first crash, I had some tinny "fairing saver" but the only saving they make me was to "free" my pocket of 50 bucks! Ok, I know when I buy these that I should not wait that they save my fairings but that was nevertheless 50$ in the trash.

So, the tinny sliders are crap ( scientifically proven by myself due to an exces of confidence in turn ). Now we would like to know: is the "real" big frame slider worth the investment or not?

So any proof, scientific or not?

I wouldn't look at them as a way to save money when you go down at 60, but a way not to have your leg crushed. Not to mention that they will prevent scratches if it falls off the kick stand or anything silly like that.

BooYeah

But it can still turn the bars and pin your leg against the fairing, not to mention rear sets are expensive.
