Bought some blue 'Frame Sliders' off a well known Chinese website. They are very cheap and are made from aluminium and hard plastic.
I use the word Frame Sliders loosely as I do not think they can be classed as proper frame sliders they are hollow for one, and very lightweight.
I bought them solely to (hopefully) protect the engine and plastic 'bits' in the event the bike falls over. I also (see pic) installed a silencer protector, in the event of a fall. The front frame sliders come with the longer bolts BUT BEWARE the bolts supplied with the sliders I bought were M10s, but with a thread pitch of 1.5.YOU will need M10 bolts with a finer pitch of 1:25. I had to buy these bolts. I used a UK supplier and they were not cheap! So, just a heads up if you see these advertised and fancy buying some. They come in a variety of colours.
