You take out the main bar that runs straight through the engine. The motosliders are attached over a replacement bar that goes back where you took the original from. Motosliders will not bend when you fall off. The best person to buy them from is Blair at svracingparts on ebay. You will get them within a week from the US, and as a set with the swingarm bobbins will set you back something much cheaper and better than the R&G equivalent


Yes they do work in a crash,,,,I've tested them


google foo images

not from my crash, but this is what they do(ooo just noticed its Northwinds bike )

Not mine either, but I crashed on this side too, and got pretty much the same result. Got a cracked fairing instead of a completely mangled one, and the toe off the gear lever popped off, luckily I had a DavieSV fixer Peg so the bike was completely rideable again.
