I had vortex sliders on both a 01 gsxsr 600 and 00 750.... and on a 05 636 the gixxer was worse becasue it stripped the threads in the motor mount. the 636 aint bad becasue its a bolt and nut so nothing got stripped.

Next time try Woodcraft. They have a rounded end & no hole in the center.
All the other ones dig into the ground the whole time they slide, the Woodcraft have nothing to bite into the ground.

Personally, I don't care for anything Votex. Their craftsmanship & materials used seem of low quality.

Anyone ever use or crashtest the Powers race rails? I just picked up a set to put on the track bike. After hearing all the slider horror stories, wondering if these are worth it if/when I go down.
