Where did you get it? I have sliders but those ones have a much stronger supporting system

Also, let me suggest you to host images on www.postimage.org

I use the T rex slider on my Ducati Monster. Cheap and a quality product. I know a few guys on the site have purchased these for there GS's and found they were missing parts but I had no troubles with mine.

On the Ebay listing, there are pictures of where they come out on fairing bikes  :thumb: Looks like the lower fairing has to come off for installation.

no fairings? :icon_sad:
both fairings come off for the install... real simple to do..... just make sure you don't over torque the bolts..... no problem with missing parts.....

i was debating between the r&g and the t-rex sliders but went with the r&g's. something about bolting it into the case just didn't sit right with me.

anyway,do you feel any flex in the parts? does it feel like it would put alot of pressure on the case bolts in a crash?

solid big time.. no play at all... and the 2 main long bolts would take most of the pressure in a hardcore drop..but I am no expert.....The bolts are made of highest grade commercially available 12.9(177,000 psi in tensile strength)

This should fit 89-00, the thing is, you can hammer up pipe to fit an 89-00. Actually 89-02 Very easy. The fairing is what makes it hard for the case guards.
Cool.
