    for a 2011 blade

    OK I have the R&G crash bungs at the mo. But with doing more TD's I'm thinking of investing in some more protection. On my list is Spindle sliders and a Engine Case Slider for the right hand side. Can't fit left I don't think because of the ABS plastic over over the engine casing

    What Do others suggest is a good idea worth looking into?

    I have seen a few mates with Frame sliders but only on R1's. Do they make these for the blade?

    And other than R&G what other makes are worth looking into?

    cheers

    I'm interested in this too as I have no protection on mine and could be costly when I come off....

    forgot to add I have the GB racing engine cover's on the right side. not on left due to ABS cover.

    As said drewl999, GB racing covers are cracking quality protection

    Oversized Swing Arm rollers - people say it is impossible to damage your swingarm with these bad boys!!

    Sorry, could not resist...

    The usual suspects are Crash Bungs (Frame Sliders), Engine case sliders (would go GB Racing for these), fork sliders, offset swingarm sliders, bar end sliders, there are a few stick ons for the upper tank and rear tail piece to protect the bodywork...

    I think people go with R&G because they are proven to work.

    Confuscious say -
    Good thing no cheap...
    Cheap thing no good!!!

    Iv never seen frame sliders for the Blade . same as you , iv only seen them on R1's and R6's.

    Axle sliders as you've said are a good idea , you already have the rest .

    full carbon fairing kits ae not that expensive compared to new genuine honda stuff . get a set mate . will look the mutts nuts !!
