I want to know if people out there have had success with the higher mounted Frame Sliders on a ZZR600. I'm a new rider and really don't want to cut a lower mounted slider hole (since there is already a hole about 3 inches about this). I won't be racing the bike, just simple in traffic/road riding so I dont need anything racing quality.
So heres the different versions as I see them for my bike:
- High Mount Sliders (these look like normal sliders and mount higher on the fairing where the puck ones would go). I think some might still require redrilling this hole which I dont like because its a brand new bike. They mount to a lil lip that is welded to the frame (this appears pretty sturdy).
- Low mount Sliders (these mount lower, require moving the overflow bottle and mount to the engine mount?) Personally I dont like drilling a hole right below a hole that is already there for the puck sliders. Do these offer much better protection for simple riding? Remember I won't be doing any serious speed on the bike or track riding.
Thanks for any advice you can give. Luckily it's raining and I'm not riding as I'm afraid I'll drop it since I can't make a **** decision on which sliders to buy...
Thanks guys!
