I had the vortex on mine when I went down and they did a great job!! Better than expected!!

Its awesome to just replace the delrin part as is usually the case, but depending on the damage you do, you may end up replacing the assembly as well...mine held up awesome, ground completely down on one side and only at the end did the bolt itself end up bending...but at regular street riding conditions, I'd only have had to replace the delrin part...but the rest of my bike was untouched b/c I had the sliders...
