Product Information

Full details

The Puig Vintage Frame Sliders (8588N) are designed for motorcycle enthusiasts seeking a balance between minimalist aesthetics and essential protection for their bike's chassis and engine fairing. Ideal for riders who prioritize accident mitigation without altering the core profile of their machine, these sliders offer robust impact absorption in a discreet, cylindrical form factor. While they provide excellent protection during low-speed falls, it is important to note that they are not designed to protect against all types of high-impact collisions and should be viewed as a secondary safety measure.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Will these sliders fit every motorcycle?

No, these are specific to the 8588N application. Please ensure your motorcycle model is compatible with this MPN before purchase.

Are these sliders replacement parts if they get scuffed?

The slider bodies are robust, but they are considered a consumable item in the event of an accident. They are designed to sacrifice themselves to protect your bike's chassis.

Do I need special tools for installation?

Standard hand tools, such as a socket wrench set and hex keys, are typically all that is required for the installation process.

Does this product come with a warranty?

Yes, Puig includes a 1-year manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.

Will these sliders interfere with maintenance on my engine?

In most cases, they do not. However, if major engine work is required, they can be easily removed by unbolting the assembly.

Troubleshooting

Slider feels loose after initial installation

Verify that all mounting bolts are tightened to the specified torque and that the correct spacers were used as indicated in the manual.

Difficulty aligning the bolt holes

Check if the engine mounting point has shifted slightly; a small jack or support under the engine can help align the mounting points with the chassis.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Protects engine fairing and chassis from common tip-overs
  • Does not extend past the handlebars or foot pegs
  • Easy installation with included fitting instructions
  • Manufactured in Spain to high EU quality standards

Cons

  • Not designed to prevent damage in high-speed crashes

  • Limited coverage compared to comprehensive engine cages

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the 8588N sliders is designed to be a straightforward process for anyone with basic mechanical knowledge. The kit includes all necessary hardware and a detailed guide specific to the mounting points of your chassis. Before beginning installation, ensure your motorcycle is on a level surface and consider using a paddock stand for stability.

Care Instructions:

  • Regularly inspect the slider housing for surface scuffs after any minor incidents.
  • Ensure mounting bolts remain tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications during routine maintenance intervals.
  • Clean with mild soap and water; avoid harsh chemical degreasers that may degrade the slider material.
