Gilles Tooling frame sliders for the Yamaha YZF-R1 are built with a patented crash-absorbing mechanism that’s designed to reduce the force of impact “felt” by your bike’s frame should the unfortunate happen. The crash pads are actually a two-piece design with a high-density compression material sandwiched between the inner and outer elements and held together with stainless steel hardware. It is with this design that it becomes possible for the outer element to slide over the inner one with the compression material acting like a shock absorber. This way, less impact energy is transmitted to the frame, reducing the chance of damage to your motorcycle. As always, instructions and high-quality components are provided with every Gilles Frame Slider.

Available for 2004 and up Yamaha YZF-R1.
