    Experienced with clutch sliders?

    I am wondering if anyone has experience with clutch sliders. Here is a link to the motivaton r6 clutch slider.

    http://www.motovationusa.com/mvstore...?idproduct=155

    Seems like a good idea. I will be using woodcraft frame sliders and so I am not sure if the clutch slider will even do anything or possibly even cause some damage if they are not the right length to work with the woodcraft sliders.

    I'm definitely going with the Woodcraft sliders. However they don't make a clutch slider, I just saw the clutch slider on the motivation website and thought it may be a good idea in addition to the Woodcrafts.

    Re: Experienced with clutch sliders?

    Had the clutch slider on my '03 R6. I was also using woodcraft sliders. Only crashed once on the right side (coming out of T3 just over the nascar transition) ... sliding/staying on the pavement. While the rearset was rashed, but not destroyed, I felt the clutch slider (as well as the woodcraft slider) worked well and did its job. I looked for a clutch slider to put on my '06 R6 (new body style), but never found one. In prepping my '08 R6 (again, new body style), I notice that Graves now carries them for the newer models (2006-09) here: Graves Clutch Slider. I'll probably pick one of these up soon. (Note that your link is for the '03-06 R6 with the older body style.)

    Great info Gecko, that's exactly what I was looking for. I have an 04 that's why the link was for the older body style. It looks like I will have the exact same setup that you went down on so it's good to hear that all the sliders did their job. Was it the motivation slider that was on your 03?

    I couldn't tell you; it was on the bike when I bought and converted it into a race bike. Sorry. Good luck, I hope you never have an occassion to test it out.
