You're missing something.

Crashbungs. £60.

Then fork springs and oil. Brakes will be right just squeeze harder Or fit sintered pads ... but do the forks first.

without being rude, what did you expect? the point of them is to break so the rest of the bike dosent, surly?

I only said R&G in jehst as the debate is similar to the pointy/curvey one

No it's not, the R+G's don't work near as well as the motosliders. Simple little crashes ruin them whereas the MS can take a couple of knocks.

I've got R+G's so I'm not trying to defend something just because I bought them lol

right, I didnt realise that was the case so I will put up my hands.... .... and say I was wrong!
Ive managed 1 very low speed slide and a drop, one on each side and they are perfect, excpet for a few little scratches. guess i was lucky then!
