install GB racing frame sliders to 2017 Gen2 BMW S1000R

 

Ideally you will need

torque wrench to set the appropriate torque for the engine bolts (50Nm ?)

extended torx bits (even these ones are only just long enough to reach into the recess), i bought the ones below which seemed a reasonable kit for the money and included 2 drive size adapters as well.

GB Racing frame sliders, for my model S1000r (2018 Gen 2) there is no removal of any body panels, nor any drilling required

Not a fan of the R&G teardrop look
Evotech nice , but expensive and needs covers taken off

LHS and RHS , which refer to as if you are sitting on the bike

easy to fit, biggest issue was making sure the alloy piece slots face correctly on tightening the bolt.
to achieve this , youll need to keep the alloy piece from rotating , i used a pair of mole grips, just make sure you place something in the jaws so you dont damage the alloy inserts!

small , visually blend into the body and should help (if i drop the bike at low speed)
