[QUOTE="JimLor, post: 202438, member: 442"] Well, I have the R&G and have tested each side in my garage - both at 0mph. Both sides worked just fine! Left side resulted in zippo damage to front end plastic, etc. Only damage was slight scuff to bottom of left saddlebag. Right side - busted my mirror at the joint (press on whatever it is popped off - fixed with nut/bolt). Had to buy a new "bobbin" for the slider. The force of the fall drove the spacer into the bobbin. The difference on this drop was that I didn't have the saddlebags on - when it went over it actually pivoted on the slider and went all the way over (hence hitting the mirror). You do have to cut the plastic to install the R&Gs. Not a big deal unless you're a total nincompoop! My opinion is that the best slider is the one you put on your bike! Don't spend too much time deciding, just pick one and stick it on. [/QUOTE]
