They were Delrin, but far too long. They effectively made the bike touch "hard" parts way sooner than it would have in stock form.
How long is too long? I guess if it's long enough to touch ground it's way too long...he says with a 12 year old smirk on his face.

If you look at the pics from this link my swing arm sliders barely kept my exhaust from hitting the ground, I'd rather have my cheap easy to replace swing arm sliders hit the ground before my spendy full Muzzys does...
FWIW my swing arm sliders have never hit the ground while riding that I know of.
FWIW my swing arm sliders have never hit the ground while riding that I know of.Look at them and that will tell ya.
The slider touches down, the rear wheel will be unweighted, and you will crash, exactly like we think the guy did at the Quantico event.
The point is if they stick out far enough that they can touch down while you are still on the tire, they can unweight the tire like any other hard part that touches down... except you ADDED this one to your bike. Not smart.
Again, my opinion, worth the cost.
Not smart.
I've never claimed to be smart, I have $30k into a $10k bike...
And love it!
But I also have some Benji's in the pocket and a hot wife with big boobs that are real...
J/K... (ok not really)
If you look at ZG's swingarm and axel sliders in these pics. (made by Top Block I believe)
They stick out WAY more than the GSG slider in this pic.
