Will these sliders protect my fairings in a crash?
Yes, they are designed to protect the handlebar ends and can help prevent or minimize damage to adjacent upper fairings or screens by absorbing initial impact.
How easy are they to install?

Can I use these if I have aftermarket grips or handguards?

Troubleshooting
Bar end sliders do not fit securely.
Verify that you have purchased the correct model for your motorcycle. Check if any additional adapters or specific mounting hardware are required for your bike. Ensure the original bar end mounting point is clean and free of obstructions.
Difficulty removing original bar ends.
Consult your motorcycle's service manual for specific instructions on removing bar ends. Some may require specialized tools or a gentle heating of the surrounding area if they are corroded or glued.
Sliders show significant damage after a minor fall.
While designed to protect, sliders are sacrificial components. Significant damage indicates they performed their intended function. Inspect the handlebar and surrounding components for any secondary damage and consider replacing the sliders.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These bar end sliders are designed as direct replacements for your motorcycle's original bar ends. The installation process typically involves removing the existing bar end weights and then fitting the R&G sliders into the handlebar's internal mounting point. Ensure you have the correct tools for removing the original bar ends, which may be secured with screws or internal expanding mechanisms.
Compatibility:
While designed as a direct replacement, it is crucial to verify compatibility with your specific motorcycle make and model. Some handlebars have unique internal diameters or mounting systems. Always check the product's specifications or consult with the manufacturer or a dealer to confirm fitment before purchase. The MPN for this product is BE0023BK and the brand is R&G.
Care:
Clean the bar end sliders periodically with a damp cloth to remove dirt and road grime. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the material or finish. Inspect the sliders after any incident to ensure they have not sustained critical damage that would compromise their protective integrity.
