Title: Best Frame savers
Post by: ghostrider_23 on March 21, 2011, 05:33:58 PM
Hello all,

I just bought my first sports bike, I had a Harely and sold it back in 97. It's a left over 2009 GS500F that I got for $3300 new, so I couldn't pass it up.

Question: what company and where can I purchase a good set of frame saver? I did do a search but the threads that I found were old. So I figured I would ask as time, equipment and experiences have changed since the post I read.

I do plan on getting a Zero Gravity (DB) and tank saver. For now I'm just loving this bike!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

R&G are my favorite.

Muffler guards are good to get

And frame sliders are good (do have to drill a hole for them but they help prevent the turn signals from punching through the fairing if it falls over)
