Frame Sliders for '08

[Lawrence]

Does someone have a spare set they want to get rids of?

I see lots of reasonably priced sliders on eBay - but I'll be honest - there wasn't a way to attach these on my previous bike, a '90 Concours, so I'm a bit ignorant about what to look for / avoid.

I read a few posts about type of material - those that are more for looks than function. Recommendations appreciated.

I bought mine here for my '08: https://www.oesaccessories.com/06-09FJR1300.html

$49.99 is hard to beat.

It takes about five to seven minutes to install them. I prefer Delrin over Aluminum as some have held the position that the Delrin will actually slide rather than digging into the road. I hope I never have to find out for sure.

Oh, and use blue Loc-tite on the bolts.

Cheap Ebay sliders in Delrin are what you want - there is some debate whether you want them with, or without the aluminum spacers - In the end and after speaking with the vendors I opted for ones without. Paid all of $28 delivered.
