Ok, is it just me or is trd speaking in code?

I have those sliders on my CB and they look good. I hope to never find out how good they work though.

Lol he does have a way with words Popgun, but it appears we are all speaking the Honda CB 1100 language.

He may be using a google translate app or something, but my sense is that he's saying 'check out these cool new frame sliders!'

I like the sliders, but I still haven't decided between these and the more expensive chrome engine guards.

Given that this bike is so much about channeling an iconic past, my guideline for mods is... "Are they period correct?" Engine guards yes, sliders no.

You're right - besides I like the bling of chrome. The sliders don't draw a lot of attention to themselves tho.

Which is why I like them. The only engine guards I was considering were the SW Motech black ones. I felt they blended in to the motorcycle's frame better than chrome, but these sliders are sorta sporty without being overstated. I might get the black SW Motech if I could do it over, but these will look cool when I change some other things and tie together the look of the bike.
