How to Install Shogun No Cut Frame Sliders on a 2007 CBR1000RR
Shougn Motorsports offers a variety of frame slider choices for a 2007 Honda CBR1000RR owner to choose from. Many of their race-oriented frame slider packages, however, tend to require permanent modification of the CBR's plastic fairings. For most street riders, the thought of cutting holes into their expensive fairings can be enough to make them reconsider their purchase. As an alternative, Shogun offers a "No-Cut" style slider, allowing the frame slider pucks to extend around, rather than through, the fairings. While the task is a straightforward bolt-on procedure, expect the job to take a minimum of one hour to finish.
