Just got a set from matt and now I am leery about installing them. Id be afraid of the cylinder head being damaged in a tip over if they break as told they would. ( as they are mounted on SEYPEA s bike as shown) Then I saw Fordfurious bike and they look like they are mounted more forward, but then again if they broke away as said the fairing would be f kd anyway. I think i would rather loose the plasticKinda disappointed I like them and want to know if this should be a real concern ( real life sit tell me if these sceaniros occored ) If they break away as designed w/ no frame or engine damage as said within reasonable speed ,tip over, etc. then that is kool but i dont want engine damage if i drop the bike @ my place ! id rather loose the plastic

I used a kit for a SV 1000 and stainless steel hardware. They have a groove around them that will allow the slider to break under frame damaging pressure but still protect from those nasty fall overs. My bike is a 2006 Katana 600. No faring modification was needed, and I used a modified fender washer to help reinforce the area that I had to drill. If pictures would help I can post some.
