Hi all,
What are your recommendations for frame sliders for a Yamaha R6 2005 model?
Anyone used these? http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/shogun-frame-sliders
Or something good in NZ?
Prefer something so no fairing is cut

These guys make good shit. They ship to NZ. Also search for Rapid Art in NZ, they may make them local.

I thoroughly recommend LSL sliders. Look good and wear better - shape helps with sliding.
Can get them through momomummy, but probably other places too.

Available in a wide range of colours. Replaceable pucks sold separately in worst case scenario.

Thanks guys some good options there. Anyone had their bike go down and had a particular type save it?
If so, what kind of shape and attachment was it?
Has anyone used these guys?

I've had a slide on those LSL sliders and they really did the job. It was low-speed, low-side though. I have read that shaped sliders help to stop the bike from potentially spinning while it's on the ground, unlike the circular (tube) sliders.
I've used Norm for a couple of little bits and pieces and he was great - good communication, swift response and fair price. Couldn't comment on those sliders though.

So I've been doing a bit of reading on frame sliders and Woodcraft really stands out.
Mixed reviews about no-cut ones like shogun etc. Some say they did the job, others said they bent and did more harm than good.
With woodcraft, only drawback is that I don't really want to cut my fairings. It shows that you need to cut the R6 ones quite a bit for the 2005. I will make a rough job of it I know it. Can anyone on here in Auckland help me if I get them? Can pay cash or beers or whatever
So much conflicting info about the Shogun sliders. Some guy had them save his bike 3 times! Others ruined in 1 crash. It'll be for road use not track.
Anyone tested no-cut sliders? How did the brackets hold up?
I had the NZ F1E sliders on my GSXR. Well engineered, never tested!
On my current GSXR I have the Woodcraft sliders fitted. Cutting the fairing was harder to think about than to do! I would trust them not to bend the frame in a crash. That cheap shogun stuff, no thanks.....
