Photo and parts breakout is below, and as you can see we are using a DOUBLE mounting point system, both the frame and the engine mount for maximum strength compared to any other options available. Combined with absolutely NO CUTTING or alterations to your fairing, and once again EvoTech has created one of the finest design of frame slider kits available anywhere. And at a suggested retail of ONLY $169.95 (cut "Defender series" versions sell at $69.95), we have been able to keep the price extremely competitive for the amount of engineering and heavy duty design created. The all new designs are in production, due to release first week of April. The first batch is already pre-selling quickly, so get your orders in with your favorite dealer or directly through us (whichever is best for you), and we will be able to get your order filled off the first shipment. Any questions, please let us know! http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q288/Annitori/EvoTech%2009%20FS/STD09R1.jpg http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q288/Annitori/EvoTech%2009%20FS/STD-Y11-parts.jpg

those seem great. I really don't want to cut my fairing so those may be in my line of sites for the near future

What is the diameter of part #3 and #10? Thanks. EvoTech makes a very strong point of explaining to customers that the strength and design of their products is second to none. This carries all the way through to the 10mm zinc treated slider bolts you ask about, and the 12mm zinc treated being used in #11. All EvoTech sliders use 10mm bolts, best you can buy. http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q288/Annitori/EvoTech%2009%20FS/SliderEndPhotows.jpg Thanks to the 2 brackets CNC'd out of billet aluminum and fully anodized to protect against oxidation, the double anchorage (engine and frame) means the fall will not be transmitted directly to the frame but will be absorbed by the brackets. Combined with easy to replace and inexpensive ends of soft but durable Delrin means that IF your bike goes over, it can be up and looking new again quickly! Hope this information helps, let us know if you have any other questions.

The lack of instructions, and parts diagram that was in the box was of very little help. You did realize that you were supposed to take that rubber grommet off the stock bushing, and install it on the bushing that came with the kit, right? It took me a minute to figure that out.

Alright, so the Italians are going to need better instructions, we will work on getting those for you all... Besides that, how does everybody like these? All we have heard back so far is these are really well done...

All we have heard back so far is these are really well done... I really like them. They seem to be constructed very well. I have luckily not had to test them out, but I have faith that they will do the job they were intended for, if required. And they look great on the bike. Even with the lack of instruction that leave you :banghead: and saying :whtfu:, this seems to be a quality product. And realistically, they aren't that hard to put on. Ya just have to be a little patient, and use your head.

Yeah I figured that out! I was thinkin those sliders were gunna take me like 10 minutes but that soon turned into 45 minutes. I really like them though. they look great

I really like them though. they look great Yeah, I severely underestimated the amount of time it was gonna take me to install them as well. I do have one question for you. Did you ever figure out where that smaller bolt and what looked like a spacer went in the grand scheme of the assembly. I never did figure it out. It looked like the right side bracket has another hole in the drawing, but it definitely was not there on the actual part. I just figured I would hang onto them in case, but for now, they are "extra parts." Lol.

Nah man I never did figure out what those two pieces went to. I just tossed them back in the box and put the box where I could find it just incase somebody figures out where they go.

Here's some pictures to hopefully help out the people that don't wanna end up spending 45 minutes putting these things on if they know to look at this thread. right side... http://c4.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/77/l_321864b6e50c4c46a7f5d60ef5b5737b.jpg left side...notice that the slider goes BEHIND the motor mount frame. http://c3.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/97/l_1b24035d73d94b8a82bf2e610d858e66.jpg This is the inside of the slider showing that you need to replace the stock bushing with the one that came with the kit! http://c2.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/80/l_eec858c844484e7dbd1ab4adad791101.jpg And there ya go that's it. P.S. there is only one mounting point on the left side. atleast only one that I could figure out.

Are these the slider pucks that can screw off to be replaced with the mount point pucks for times when you need to strap the bike down?

Installation Instructions! OK, that's the good news. Bad news is that they are in Italian! But, we think the photo's will get everyone through the questions! http://www.evotech-rc.it/images/ISTRUZIONI%20MONTAGGIO%20%20STD-Y11.pdf Let us know if this is what everyone is looking for!

The pictures are the only helpful part of the instructions. However, they didn't accurately depict some of the parts. They didn't give any images that put the sliders orientation to the bike. They didn't explain that the bracket was supposed to go behind the frame on the left side of the bike. They never addressed the rubber grommet that needed to be removed from OEM bushing, and installed on the shorter bushing from the kit. They leave a lot of things for the installer to have to figure out on there own. They are probably, in all honesty, the worst set of installation instructions I have ever seen. It may sound like I am smashing on these instructions pretty badly. However, I am confident that I could have personally produced a much better set of instructions, had I been tasked with that job, so I don't feel that I owe them any pity. In truth, I basically installed these on my bike with no real help from the instructions.

Com'on now, they are Italian and I have to say that although they are not the "best" instructions ever seen, they are better then nothing, which is what we started with... :) I will see if I can continue to push on them a little bit, get them to "tweak" the sheets more. Good news is that we are selling a lot of these kits, so it appears everyone has figured it out anyway...!
