My sliders held up great on my minor highside as you guys can see!
but its safe to say when you see 95% of the bikes you see out there with 1-2 inch chicken strips, while they have crazy ass mods like akra exhausts, ohlins, wave rotors....
i seriouesly have no intention of going back on street...... its so much hassle with five-oh everywhere.... i got a warning last time up at cypress, and cars that don't think you exist while you burn in the hot sun stuck in traffic. THE TRACK IS WHERE ITS AT, IF YOU BUY A SPORTBIKE AND YOU DON"T TRACK, ITS LIKE GETTING A PORNSTAR AND NOT SCREWING HER
also most cages are steel w/ aluminum pucks, i think it can be worse than a slider because metals "catch" the pavement and can end up flipping the bike, whereas the delrin plastics are strong and meant to grind away
