They wouldn't have done me any good- you could see that from the damage. Smashed headlight surround would not have been saved. 35mph low side.

On the other hand, they DID save an '02 GSXR on the track. He had aluminum woodcraft sliders. The slider wore down a bit, and the bolt bent, but the only damage on the bike was a few scratches that are barely noticeable. His swingarm spool broke off, but the swingarm was clean. 30 mph high side.
