R&G Slider Install
Posted: Tue Jun 24, 2014 3:06 pm
Ok, time for the dumb question of the day....
I have some normal (the drill style) sliders I am going to install on my track bike and the instructions have me confused. The instructions say to place a jack under the engine to minimize movement then remove the engine bolt (front, under radiator). This makes me think I need to remove the front engine head bolt that is located under the main frame spar to the rear of the top radiator. Then I look at the pic on R&G's website and the sliders are installed in the lower hole on the engine that isn't connected to the frame at all. Coincidentally, this is the same location as the non-drill type.
So, which is it? The upper hole or lower?
Here are the install instructions...

I contacted R&G and Greg there thinks it is the upper bolt...
