Nice bike!

Honestly?
Well, since you asked, I think those sliders will cause more harm than protection if you ever need them.
Other than that, extra nice, clean, really dig those mirrors.

I heard those sliders were good and the satos are crappy... Do you have any experience with them Glitch?

Looks great. I would still pick up a set of the frame pucks even though you have the sliders. I think the general thinking is that any sliders on our bikes don't really work well because there isn't any place to mount them well. Pretty much every picture of a wrecked XB with sliders other than the pucks that I've seen the sliders broke. Even if the sliders don't brake they will probably angle the bike right on to the frame where the pucks fit and it would suck to have a dinged up frame after spending all that money on sliders.

Not me personally, but I have seen a bike that went down with those. They caught the pavement and ripped off, taking all they were mounted to with them. Looked to be a lot more work than could have been prevented using pucks instead. The bike had gone down on the left side if that makes a difference.

Is that a second hole on your airbox cover, over where the snorkel would be?

EDIT Nevemind, it's the mirror. LOL

Those mirrors are cool. They're Rizomas right? How do they fit on the bike as far as mounting goes and how do you like them?
