Congrats johnnyblaze on the awesome machine! Wish you many miles of riding pleasure.

3900 includes postage, framesliders and spool sliders within 7 days

Can you post of pics of these sliders and if possible pen down the installation procedure?

Niks - Where did you pick up the GoPro from? PRS or bought online? Am in queue to buy one...and checking out whether to source from outside or buy from the PRS store

That's quite a steal, which is the one you picked up? Sounds quite cool

Radius cut 2" inch sliders black colour

I got 2 curved mounts , 2 flats , 1 helmet strap. There was no cycle bar mount. If I could put it on the bar above the key , it would be great !

I tried fixing it on the tank but the handle bar blocks the view

Buy the handlebar mount ! If you want it to be like it is in the link you posted then you either need a handlebar mount or you need to use one of the curved 3m sticky mount (which u have) in conjunction with a 2 axis rotator (which you dont have)

If you had gone for the HD Motorsports Wide you would have had all them mounts shipped to you. Now you can buy the mount pack for something like $29 !

I have the 2 axis mount , will use that. The diff between motorsports pro and helmet pro was suction mount and "vented helmet strap" . I picked the wrong one

[TenHut]

I have the 2 axis mount

that will do the job then..

The Sliders Guide

Dear All FZ-1 Owners,

There are two video's

1. Shows the removal of Engine Mounting Bolt with washer.
2. Shows the installation of Frame Sliders.

Guidelines: Be careful while removing the engine mounting bolts as they are extremely hot because of the running engine. I had travelled almost 25kms and engine temp was 95+ when the mechanic unscrewed the bolts. The washer which is taken out should also be installed with frame slider bolts.

Verdict: Very good finish and 2 minutes of hassle free installation for both frame and spool sliders. FZ-1 OWNERS!!!!!!!! buy the product without second thoughts.
