Look up sliders by Motovation and Woodcraft. Both are top notch and should give you the ballpark price for a set of good sliders for that particular bike.

Indeed. This also has my vote.

Well, I'm a fan of sliders for sure since my bike has been down five times and look at it. I also use axle sliders, swingarm sliders and would use engine sliders if I didn't already have Vortex covers...
Maybe the sliders haters should check out the newer, flatter frame sliders that are out. They don't do Crap for the body work but incorporated with axle and engine sliders..... |

On a street bike, why not?
I'd even ask for a track/race bike but I already know the required internet response.

Of the injuries we have had at my events, the most serious have happened by the frame sliders catching and flipping the bike into the rider. One of them not at a high speed. Therefore, I wouldn't put them on any bike I own. As far as tip over in a parking lot, and putting sliders on to keep your bike pretty... sliders themselves aren't ”pretty.” I'll take my chances.
