Introducing the MT219-017-BK Extended Frame Slider, specifically designed to enhance the safety and performance of your 2004-2012 FZ-6 and FZ-6S 600. Made from high-quality, heavy-duty chrome billet aluminum, these frame sliders not only offer a sleek aesthetic but also provide essential protection for your motorcycle.

The frame sliders are engineered to protect the frame, engine cases, and bodywork/fairings of your bike. By minimizing the impact during a crash, these sliders significantly reduce repair costs and keep your motorcycle looking pristine. Their extended design is 1 inch longer than the original frame sliders, providing additional coverage where it matters most.

One of the key attributes of these frame sliders is their lightweight yet robust design, ensuring that they do not hinder your bike’s performance. Unlike traditional sliders, which might be too rigid, these sliders are crafted to absorb energy effectively. In the event of a fall, they are designed to grind off rather than catch on the ground, preventing the bike from flipping over or sustaining more severe damage.

It is important to note that while frame sliders provide excellent protection, they are not intended to shield plastics, clip-ons, or rearsets. The design philosophy behind these sliders is to allow them to take the brunt of an impact. If your slider bends or shatters upon impact, that indicates it has effectively absorbed energy, thereby protecting your frame and other critical components.

In motorsports, energy absorption is crucial, and frame sliders function similarly to the mechanisms found in Formula 1 cars, which are designed to explode upon impact to prevent energy transfer to the driver. Thus, having a slider that can endure a crash is essential for maintaining the integrity of your motorcycle.

Each slider comes as a pair, allowing for complete coverage on both sides of your bike. Please note that installation instructions are not included, and professional installation is recommended for optimal safety and performance.

In summary, the MT219-017-BK Extended Frame Slider is the perfect accessory for any 2004-2012 FZ-6 and FZ-6S 600 owner looking to enhance their motorcycle’s safety and style. With its durable materials and thoughtful design, this aftermarket product is a must-have for serious riders.
