Title: Sliders...frame and axle Post by: raulduke on September 17, 2008, 05:06:57 AM Ok, my bike is getting back together after my Spring accident...that's right...it has taken this long!!! [bang]
The good news is, we did EVERYTHING. Powder-coat the frame, swingarm, rear suspension mounts...DucPainter painted her paintable parts....and loads and loads of new parts and improvements. Thank you Progressive Insurance for the lovely settlement. So here is my question. I want to put frame and fork sliders on her. Firstly, it seems like no single company makes a "whole set" Speedymoto makes frame and front axle sliders, Rhinomoto makes axle sliders only (and I can't figure out if their rear slider will work for my bike) and CycleCat used to make frame sliders...which are still avalible. Nobody seems to make them all. So what do you guys recommend? I would like them to be as inconspicuous as possible and actually work well if God forbid it comes to that...again. :-\ Any advice would be much appreciated. btw these will be going on a 2000 750 Title: Re: Sliders...frame and axle Post by: somegirl on September 17, 2008, 05:19:03 AM Some recommendations and comments in these threads:

Anybody know if the rhinomoto rear axle slider will work on a 2000 M750?

I used the ]RHINOMOTO Rear Axle Slider: Monster/ST/SS (http://www.motowheels.com/italian/myproducts.cfm?parentcategoryid=853%7CMisc%2E%20Parts%3A%20Italian&productID=4546&showDetail=1&categoryID=858|Ducati%20Monster%20Misc&vendoridtodisplay=0&filterFor=&collection=168%7CEuropean%20Motorcycle%20Parts) but I had to drill out the "burr" in the rear axle so the rod would slide all the way through.
