Anybody had experience with Motivation frame sliders?
 
I'm looking at their no-cuts and they have some beefy adapters that hug the frame proper-like. Anybody ever been down on them? How'd they hold up?

If you want no cuts, I would look into R&G. www.cyclesector.com sells them and I have used them and they held up excellent. Very beefy adapters that wrap around the the frame.

I would say these were responsible for why my race fairings are in as good of condition as they are in after going down.

I don't think those are no cuts trip... the bottom says *Modification of LHS panel required

cyclesector even has some decent looking case guards for the R6 made by R&G and some kind of lower frame slider. First time I ever seen that.

Harris no-cuts FTW!

Found this on the Harris website:

"Lowsided at Barber and the left side bracket (the no-cut bracket) snapped off leaving the left side to slide without slider in tact. The frame bolt stayed in ,but the bracket just not sturdy enough to with stand a crash."

Looks like I'll pass.

the reviews are a little odd... one says these sliders will make the R6 more comfortable... :lol:

I've said it before and I'll say it again! Don't fuck around, don't get no-cuts, get Woodcraft!

I lowsided in T1 at JGP on my GSXR and the slider saved my bike. I lost the front at over 100mph and the bike was fine! I lowsided on the street going about 20mph and not only did my "no-cut" break, but before it broke the mount rotated around and cracked my fairings from the inside! It completely fucked up my fairings.

They're specially designed, two-part sliders, with replacebale pucks. The pucks cost $15, so if you go down, instead of replacing the entire set-up, all you have to replace is the puck. Plus the design is such that it's a LOT stronger than most and it's very easy to replace. The owner of woodcraft is a professional racer, and thought that most of the stuff out there was crap, so he started his own company and made his own parts. Check them out:
