The
SpeedyMoto frame slider kit includes an extremely durable chromoly
steel engine bolt. Precision-ground, thread-formed and quenched and
tempered to an aircraft grade tensile strength of 185,000 psi, our bolt
far surpasses OEM specs (as well as other manufactures) in both strength
and wearability.
We employ stainless steel for the integral
engine nuts and slider support, not unlike the high-strength engine
bolts used by Ducati race teams. Corrosion resistant and strain-hardened
stainless steel is ideal for the crucial applications of holding your
motor in, supporting the entire chassis, and providing a reliable
platform for the actual slider.
SpeedyMoto uses High Density Poly
Ethylene (HDPE) plastic for the slider puck. Unlike other plastics, the
unbelievably low friction coefficient of this plastic makes it
practically glide on the pavement. By using this material the risk of
'grabbing' is reduced, avoiding turning a smooth lowside into the
dreaded catastrophic high side.
NOTE:
Underbody Sliders do not
require cutting the Bodywork - These do use the body itself as a slider
to protect the bike
