[SUPA-FLY-KAT]

HI GUYS,
I A LOOKING TO PURCHASE A SET OF "CHROME" FRAME SILDERS. I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING, AND CAN NOT FIND WHICH COMPANY MAKES THEM TO FIT THE 98+ KATANAs. DOES ANY 1 KNOW WHICH COMPANY, AND MODEL FITS THE NEWER KATs....ALSO WHERE TO GET THE BEST PRICE ON THEM....GREATLY APPRECIATED

I just bought a set of Yamaha sliders they are 3.5" long...so those will fit. I bought them off a guy on eBay, he has his own eBay store.

[zleviticus]

you do know that frame sliders do not fit nor were they made for katanas. you have to drill the frame or make some other type of mounting hardware to mount the frame slider..

YES I KNOW YOU HAVE TO DRILL, BUT DO ANY FRAME SLIDERS FIT, IF NOT PLZ BE EXACT , LIST THE NAME OF THE COMPANY AND MODEL NUMBER OF THE SLIDERS, THANX ALOT

I would think any of those would work Supa... your basically looking for something that has the same length sliders for each side.[/quote]

Ive been considering sliders as well.. hhmm, just not keen on drilling into my frame though so I'd probably go the other route, so we'll see.

[katana91]

whats the other way?

[SweetLou]

whats the other way?

Making a bracket that would wrap around the fram, and would allow the slider to screw into.

[DreKat]

you could always weld the brackets to the frame and then paint over the welds.
