Shogun frame sliders saved my bike nicely, and no I don't work for them. These are from about a 50mph lowside. (sorry about the pics, the bike's in a trailer right now)

Slider: (you can see the kickstand kind of got a little ground/a piece snapped off it, but it is minor and still useable.

So in short, if you don't have them I would highly suggest getting them.

dude, I was utterly surprised at how well they held up. I hear so many bad things about Joe Rocket but nothing wore through, so I have zero road rash and all the leather looks useable again. I'll try and get some pics sometime, when I can find a way to get them from my camera to the computer since I'm not at home anymore. But hell, its true, full leathers really do make a difference.

my leather held up amazing in my accident. So did my Crash's jacket in his 70 mph wreck... both joe rocket jackets

in both my crashes was wearing a leather joe rocket, minor scuff on shoulder, and in 2 was wearing field sheer, no damge at all. the joe rocket is the yamaha 6 jacket like jerry has

my sliders would have worked just as good as your if the bike didnt go into a 4 ft ditch.

my sliders worked great but i would recommend that people get a clutch slider. That and my vortex rearsets saved my exhaust system.

one of the benefits of crashing at the track!
