Motosliders! They're what I had on my curvy and couldn't recall the name of. They were decent and much cheaper than R&G

Looks like we live in the same county, so would be easy to get them to you, if interested.

They are in excellent overall condition.
Now with added pics (my bike with SW Motech crash bars)

Why do you keep throwing it down the road ?!

I don't think I'd be doing Sir Rod a disservice if I say his preference is actually to throw it down a track.

Fixing a curvy is cheaper than the entry fee
