Anyone needing sliders?
I'm noob and instead of asking I'll offer the following. http://www.maxspeed-motorsports.com/ has sliders for our Superhawks. I have not received mine yet but can give you all the thumbs up with regards to the customer service so far. Seller was prompt with e-mail response and assured me my order would be filled in time as promised. all in all

I see the bottom pic shows them installed, but IMO it's a bad angle. I don't understand how they mount, and if that small steel bracket is the mounting point then I definitely have my doubts about them. The Lightek ones that I (think I) have use a 5/8" thick aluminum bracket that looks and feels beefy. The small steel bracket looks like it'd bend easily on impact.
thanks for posting. I'll be interested to see what you think when you have them.

I cannot say I am entirely happy with my purchase. The sliders are delivered in what can only be called a presentation case. Aluminum box with foam sleeves for the various parts; very professional looking. The Sliders and mounts seem stout enough to me, even though I think all these sliders look like total crap. Looks leap out the window when your $800 deep in plastic replacement! The right slider mounted up nicely, felt secure and looked decent. The left is another matter. I had to purchase a 1-1/2" SS fender washer to make sure the bolt would cover the hole in the frame. It' s in good shape now but I was severely let down. There are also no instructions for the kit.
On the whole I think the kit looks quality and may just be. I'm hoping i don't have to find out. This is my first Japanese multi-cylinder bike after owning two Buell XB's and several single dual sports. So far, FoghornLeghorn, my SuperHawk is a delight. I also fabbed up some soft bag supports out of sheet steel; mounting them to the exhaust hangers. They worked admirably and I'll be visiting the local metal shop for a professional set. I'll get crappy pics up here soon. WC
