These sliders have been designed to offer unsurpassed protection for the 696, S2R, S4R, 600/620/900/1000, Multistrada, Hypermotard in the unfortunate event of a lowside or tip over. Motovation frame protection slider kits are designed and manufactured by a company that only makes frame sliders. Each and every model is tested for drop and slide protection. They are tough but not brittle and can also absorb a huge impact. Sportsriders around the world who have tested various models of our products on the track have all given their thumbs up after experiencing first hand, the benefits of Motovation Sliders.

Please read all instructions before beginning work! These frame sliders are designed to fit specific engine mounts of your bike. It is highly recommended that you refer to your service manual before performing this installation. If you are unsure about the tightening torque, check your motorcycle's manual or www.motovationusa.com/torque.html for a quick reference guide

INSTRUCTIONS:
1) Make sure the bike is on a stand and vertical, and make sure that the engine is supported from below by blocks.
2) Remove the rubber bungs that cover the left and right mounting points as seen in the above picture.
3) Loosen and remove the mid engine support rod's nut on the right side (right while sitting on bike). You may have to secure the left side with an allen key to do this.
4) From the right side, install the slider with the larger insert into the frame and insert the rod (the end with shorter length of threads) through the slider till it meets the factory engine bolt. Using a rubber mallet, very gently drive the factory bolt out. It should come out pretty easily. Do not use excessive force as this may damage the threads on the supplied rod. Although unlikely, if it does not come out easily you may have to lower or raise the engine supporting blocks a bit.
5) Once the factory bolt is driven out and the supplied threaded rod is protruding out from the left side (the end with the shorter length of threads), install the left slider using the supplied gripnut and flat washer. It may be necessary to loosen or tighten the nuts to ensure that sufficient amount of threads are exposed on each side. Tighten the nuts to factory specifications.

Do Not Over Tighten!

Thank-you for purchasing Motovation products.  Please ride safe and always wear protective clothing.
