    frame sliders came with wrong size bolts, SV650

    I ordered some Shogun frame sliders and the left slider went on without a problem. The bolt ended up threading into the motor a little shorter than that of the stock bolt, but I think there is plenty of thread there. The right side came with this massive bolt that bottoms out with 1/2 inch to...

Does this sound like a problem that is...

    I am the guy with the balls in his throat that you were all calling a fairy. Thats cool w/e, but I have some stunting questions to bring to the table. I rode trials for about 2 years and could fling that bike around like a blow up doll and ride out 180 degree stoppies etc. I have now a 99'...
