What kind of frame sliders do you have/recommend?
After talking with everyone on the NH ride I decided I oughta get some frame sliders. I have been looking at Motovation but what's the deal with the mushroom looking Spiegler LSL sliders? (Spiegler LSL Frame Sliders)
Do they protect just as well or what? Also, I see you can get fork and axle sliders, anyone have them? |

Re: What kind of frame sliders do you have/recommend?
I just put on my motivation frame sliders the other day quick and easy look good and hopefully get the job done
 and on the subject of fork and axle, I've read that most people don't put fork sliders on maybe not much use

I really like the Rotella T sliders. They just glide along the pavement like they are on oil or something. Incredible!

I've got Shogun sliders. Not expensive and they seem like good quality.

Re: What kind of frame sliders do you have/recommend?
I have the Shogun sliders but do not recommend them. They seem to be too short on both sides to protect a lot. I'm going to pitch for the Motivation sliders next spring unless I find something better. These are probably tough enough but I just think there would be too much damge in the event of a lowside at this point. I'm comparing this to my old '05 ride (Pondrat, a.k.a. Michael) who has the Uncaged sliders which I feel are superior. My issue with them is availability in black/black and the fact that the black aluminum fades to purple (see Tom's sliders). Perhaps buying them with the black pucks and having the aluminum powder-coated is a good option too!

Re: What kind of frame sliders do you have/recommend?
I first bought some ****ty eBay frame sliders.
Then I went with Motovation frame sliders. You can see the difference here: Frame sliders : So, you want a motorcycle? |
