I really don't know on that one. I just emailed him direct. But considering you can buy the whole set(engine and swingers) cheaper than R&Gs IIRC, it didn't bother me not to have had a discount.

Another vote for the frame sliders from Blair. Ordered them last week, arrived today. I've had to cut the fairing slightly on my curvy, as i've got lower fairing as well, but its not a massive job. All I need to do now, is undo the bloody engine bolt so I can fit them on.

Personally I would get a set of Motosliders, either from Nate at Motosliders or from Blair at SV Racing Parts. Motosliders are more effective and cheaper too.

The shape of the bung and the strength of the bolt are the two main weakness' to the R&G design. When you over come these two issues, a few more come to light which is why I do not recommend them especially as an engineer at R&G will agree that it is a flawed design. However, they do perform a little better than any of the cheap bungs which bolt to either the front or rear cylinder mount

A crash bung will not stop all damage, but in 90% of accidents I would say a decent crash bung would keep the repair costs down and possibly save a write off.
