My XB9SX has pucks as well as axle sliders, but I would still like to have additional protection. I am mostly concerned about someone knocking the bike over in a parking lot or a low speed slide. I see LSL and T-Rex make frame slider kits, but them mounting to the engine is a little concerning for me. What are my options?

Look for LSL Sliders!

Does LSL still make sliders for the XB's?

Pucks and axle sliders are great for parking lot mishaps. I've also seen people make passenger foot peg sliders to help protect the tail.

I have seen photos of the frame/tank damaged from a puck impact. I was not sure if this was just from a drop or a pretty serious wreck.
