Do you have frame sliders for your vfr 1200. Yes / no and what brand ? Do you have axle sliders Y/N and what brand. ? Would you do it differently?
To my shame I must admit I don't. And I know I should have them as I recently sold my old bike's R & G frame protectors. They did their job twice on both sides. Never slid so they haven't broken off either. If I were to go for protectors, I'd certainly have another look at R & G.
