Default R&G frame sliders help please.

Hi all,
I have a set of frame sliders from r&g for my 04 sv650 naked.
These are a ebay win so I have the complete kit but no instructions
They are the ones with the bolt that goes right threw the frame,i have looked at the instructions on r&g,s website but they make no sense to me at all.
Can anyone give me some hints on fitting them PLEASE??????

Many thanks...

Pretty sure the long bolt goes through the frame and engine! The engine would need supporting from underneath so you can remove bolt and then add the bungs

Don't know anymore Han that though

Might need the bike to be upright so if you don't have a paddock stand maybe use ratchet strap from the bars to the roof to take the weight

You won't need to support the weight of the engine, as the other engine mounts will take the weight.

If you have the same ones as in this pic, looks like you need to remove the long engine mounting bolt in the centre of the engine and replace it with the RG one?



Then the sliders attach some how to the other bits in your kit?

Unless the engine was mounted slightly off kilter. A trolley jack can be used to lift the engine if you have problems removing any bolts.

Different fitting of r&g sliders than the k3s btw.
