Description of Shogun Yamaha YZF-R3 2015-2018 Black Frame Sliders - Fits ABS & NON ABS Models - MADE IN USA

***NO BODY MODIFICATIONS REQUIRED***. All Shogun Motorsports standard kits have SPARE PARTS AVAILABLE along with a 1 YEAR FREE puck replacement WARRANTY for White, Black and PA2 kits. All frame slider kits come with left and right frame sliders and all necessary mounting hardware. (Contact Shogun Motorsports for details.). Shogun frame sliders are superior to other frame slider brands by virtue of their construction and material. Shogun pucks are made of shatter-proof UHMW infused with UV protective polymer. Shogun pucks absorb kinetic energy from crashes and will not shatter in cold temperatures like some types of foreign recycled Delrin or fade in the sun. Each puck has a press fit aluminum bushing to hold it in place during impact to reduce the risk of the puck tearing off of the mounting point. Shogun uses socket head bolts in nearly every kit, allowing for stronger frame slider design in a more compact space. Newer applications of Shogun Frame Sliders make use of a counter sunk design, which distributes the force of impact over a wider area and gives additional strength to the system so that the puck remains attached to the motorcycle. Some Shogun products are available in a 3 piece kit which consist of matching frame sliders, swing arm spools and bar ends. Made in the USA.

Great slider on parts

In my opinion one of the most beautiful sliders without drilling. They're easy to install and seem strong enough to do what they're designed to do when needed. They have a notch that matches the iron to avoid friction so it doesn't matter which is on which side of the bike. I have no problem hitting them with my knees, but I'm only 5ft 8in tall.

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Empty

Saved my bike - Easy installation

You wouldn't normally think you need these, but trust me - you want them on your bike. My bike was blown away by a strong wind and skidded on the sidewalk. With this set of sliders, the damage to my bike was minimal. The slider absorbed most of the damage and prevented the fairing and gas tank from being destroyed. Put them on your bike!

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Weight

Oh, they fit. fits bar ends

I have a set of Shogun shifters on my XSR 900 so when it came time to get a set for my son's R3 it wasn't a problem. Only Revain kept telling me these 15-18 YZF-R3 sliders don't fit my 2015 YZF-R3. don't trust them They snapped straight into place - in fact, they would probably fit ANY Yamaha from about 2000 to today. It's not rocket science, Revane. These are quality parts from an American company, so feel free to take them with you.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Almost OK

Protected our bike

We installed them before we rode the bike and it was the best decision we made. I'm a beginner and on day 2 I managed to drop the bike and all that happened to it was a small scratch on the sliders and a bent clutch (which buckled back slightly). It was low speed but it saved our bike from scratches or even broken something else. I would definitely recommend her. They are easy to install and definitely worth the money.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Damaged

In general, the product is satisfied!

Although these carbon fiber framed sliders were a bit more expensive than other sets I've reviewed, they look very nice installed. In general, if the bike ever breaks, I hope they do their job. Once fitted to my 2018 Yamaha YZF R3 they feel very sturdy. The only downside to their product is that there are NO installation instructions in the box, but they do have a download available online and have a few YouTuber installation videos for info. You will definitely need a good torque wrench and…

Pros
  • Handy part
Cons
  • Not the best

The sliders themselves seem good but I had one big problem

The sliders themselves seem good but I had a big problem. You plugged in the wrong hardware (one of the two screws was too short) and forgot the washers. I still only installed one slider because I couldn't buy the right screw at the hardware store. However, installation is a breeze. You simply pull out a screw and replace it with a frame slider. You don't need to delete anything else. Since you are replacing the engine mount bolt, make sure you have a torque wrench to properly tighten the…

Pros
  • Sturdy build
Cons
  • Protection

Fits YZF-R3 2018

I don't know why I can't add more pictures but here is an overview. I was a bit skeptical about ordering this as it didn't meet the PRIME requirements and wasn't sure about the return policy, but I went for it anyway. The order came in 3 days, so 4-7 days earlier than expected. Great plus! Installation took about 5 minutes from start to finish (tools used: 8mm hex head and torque wrench). I ordered them for a 2018 Yamaha YZF-R3 and they fit perfectly. Gave 4 starts because they came with no…

Pros
  • Great overall specs
Cons
  • Doubt
