Exactly Pandy! well said.

trust me i learned my leason. and aj i didnt reprt it to insurance cause i only have colateral i cant afford the other one, so you dont have to worry about ur insurance going up. as far as stunting or doing stupid like that i stoped back in easter day when i almost got arested. so i have been driving safe for a wile.

oh, so this is what got aj banned again. serves her right. too bad its not a permanent ban. should be.

nick, glad you're okay. frame sliders would have prevented some damage, surely, but not likely all damage. when I lowsided, the sliders saved a bunch of the bodywork (and of course the frame) but some still got trashed. Lesson learned about having a talk with any passenger you take, about what is appropriate behavior on their part and what they should be doing, how they get on and off, what to do at stops, etc. AND, how important it is to be calm and not do anything in a panic.

yeah just got to call lockhart phillips and see if they work on our bike

Dude... frame sliders work on the bike. You've asked that question at least once, and had it answered at least once. I've seen other people post the same question before. Do a damn search. FRAME SLIDERS WORK. IF YOU CUT HOLES IN THE FAIRINGS AND BOLT THEM TO THE FRAME, AS YOU ARE INTENDED TO DO.

Dude, just go for the case guards, they look so much better and are degined for our bikes.

yeah but i read a thread here were alpha said it might f up the frame under it

I got my SW Motech Case Guards for $120 shipped from TwistedThrottle.com. The only real hassle was waiting 3 weeks for them to be in stock. After that, I had em in 4 days, and the install took about 15 mins, tops. And they look damn good. And they work. And they're designed for our bike. And... buy em.. make your bike a naked bike! Naked is where it's AT!

ill get the eropean ones. thanks

Uhh, dude. I don't think I ever said that. If I did, point it out to me. The only time a crash bung (or frame slider, or mushroom, or many other names) will screw the frame up is if it is designed poorly. And that's dealing with an aluminum frame, as steel frames are pretty damn tough. If the frame slider is too long and it catches on something while sliding then it would bend the bar of the frame slider before anything.

Your questions have all been answered before. Why do you keep asking the same questions over and over again?

If you hit hard enough, it will push your braket holding the fairing into your frame, pulling the plastic along with it. You're running the risk of cracking your plastics. The brackets that hold the fairing are really weak and won't be able to stand up to the force caused by a falling motorcycle. If they do, however, they could be seriously bent up which might warp your fairing. If it ever fell over you'd have to take off the fairing and check to see that the bracket underneath didn't sustain any damage.

Roller skates? What the hell are you talking about?

By the way, the frame sliders in the link above don't have any rolling parts. At all.

Yeah dude, if you actually read that I was talking about the FAIRING BRACKETS. That post was discussing mounting frame sliders from the FAIRING MOUNTING BRACKETS.

Huh, really nick? Because that's what they ALL look like...

my alpha ur right. so this lockhart philips well work just as good as the european ones by r&g?

Nick again glad your ok and making this a learning exp.   
BTW it takes more energy to tell someone to search than just ignoring the question.  And I don't think he asked if frame sliders would work IN THIS THREAD he called LP.  And just stated that LP said they would fit. . .gee must be something wrong when you want to double check on something before you spend your money on it.

I guess in a few more months when everything has been asked every reply will be search. . . thats going to be a fun forum.

Riding 2 Up is very ghey IF your not secure in your manhood, or if your a homophobe.  Otherwise it's fine.  And really if you see two guys riding two up and if they are ghey so the f*uk what?

Getting laid. . hmmm that stoped after I got married 

dont worry its chicks only from now own and if they jump off, im taking off their helmet and taking off.
so do you think that the LP will work
