I have some T-Rex frame sliders for sale if you need some, not used. I didnt end up putting them on because I found out my bike was a TL anyways and the engine mount bolts didnt want to cooperate.Comment

Here this is the thread that I found out about them fromOriginally posted by URAL View Post
I started to try to install the left side and did like he did in his thread and ground out a little bit of the bracket (which you will also probably have to do because of the sloppy welds on katana frames) but couldn't even get my original bolt out of my bike lol. I live in canada and get get a shipping quote if you want. I think it was like $30 shipping to get it here from the states. I would sell them to you for like $40? Is that ok?? Its like half price (I have no idea what shipping would have been in the states).
This is what he says in his thread about the fit - - - -
NOTE: this is where I found a problem. Suzuki welds were sloppy on the frame
area, and I had to relieve the inner portion of the bracket to clear the weld, using a
Dremel with a grinding wheel.
First use a rubber hammer to find where it interferes (the frame will mark the powder
coat), and then relieve that portion of the bracket with the Dremel.
This is easy, and took approximately 3 minutes or so.(I had to repeat the procedure
on the left side as well, but only lightly.Comment

Well Ill need to think a little, Im a bit tight with the finances and if it'll end up being near 100 bucks after shipping then its just lacking the logic. However if its not too hard to get a quote to 10950 (NY USA) then that would be great. It's always better to deal with an exact amount.Originally posted by 0241135 View PostHere this is the thread that I found out about them from

Alrite fellas' Little update... The weather has been ****ty in the past week or so. Haven't even looked at the bike since the last time. Gotta pay insurance at the end of this month and I haven't even ridden the damn thing.
Also Looking for another job. Car mechanics is not my field of career, I rather keep it as a hobby. Anyone in NY who have a decent job opening they know of, let me know and Ill gladly make a resume

Might try calling the Civilian Employment Office at West Point, see what they've got. A GS job is a pretty sweet deal and you can't beat the stability.Comment
