Seen many posts and opinions here about frame sliders. I'm a newbie but just installed the Shogun No Cut Frame Sliders that I bought off eBay from podiumsuperbikeinc. They came new in Shogun packaging with all the manufacturer tags etc.. Package points to http://www.moto911.com/pdf/750-6369.pdf for great complete installation instructions. Installation took only 30 min. and required torque wrench and 8mm hex socket for engine bolts (40 ft#) and puck bolts (30#). 4mm & 5mm hex sockets for fairing bolts. Blue thread lock for puck bolts. Instructions say to remove fairings but the right side installs without even needing to loosen the fairing, and the left side can be released and moved more than enough for easy installation just by removing 6 small retaining bolts on the fairing. I did everything with the bike resting on the side stand. Don't know how they will actually work, but they fit perfect without any cutting and installation is simple and explained very well in the instructions. :thumbup:
Shogun Frame Sliders - perfect fit & installation.

Thanks for the review, bobski. I ordered a set of Shogun No-Cuts yesterday. I'm hoping I'll have as easy a time installing them as you did.
I love my Shogun no-cuts! I think they look great, and installation was really easy. Thankfully I haven't had to use them.
I might buy a pair from the same seller. Looks like about 80.00 shipped which is cheaper than the other auctions im seeing tonight..
Its confirmed: I went ahead and ordered them from the same seller as you did. This would be my first mod.
I have also thought about getting the front windscreen tinted, I would think I could just take it to a car tinting place and have it done for 20 bucks or so.

getting it tinted you end up with air bubbles , go to advance and for like 10 bucks you can get some spray tint , it works really well

If you read the directions, the longer one is the left-side. I just put mine on this afternoon. They look nice.
I only used what was supplied in the kit and it turned out great. Feels very solid, but hopefully I'll never know how well they work.
I bought mine through the same eBay seller, oddly enough.

Ordered mine last night. Should see them early next week. I figured it was time to install some, especially since I just finished a track day with Mike Sullivan racing at Spokane Raceway Park. Seems like I was putting the cart before the horse 
Just installed mine this afternoon. Pretty simple installation, although I did run into one minor problem. The right engine bolt that came with the sliders looked a bit worn when I got it, and sure enough, once I got it tightened onto my bike, enough of the bolt head had gotten stripped that my torque wrench slipped. Took me 10 minutes to get it off my bike. Now, this possibly could be an isolated incident, but I will always use OEM parts wherever possible for future mods.
And I agree with you, Nasty. I'm hoping I NEVER have to test out the sliders.

Could have been a bolt or the puck.. He wasn't specific and was probably pissed that they didn't act as well as a full cage. Who knows.. Frame sliders serve a minor purpose anyways.
