I like my Speedymoto frame sliders.

I've got the "Mushroom" sliders... don't stick out quite as far, but look like they'll do the job (don't want to find out though)

I've crash tested the Cycle Cats several times now. They do a great job. The speedymotos don't stick out as far but from my crashing expertise  mo:t: I'll tell you that I usually grind the sliders down and they are still just long enough to keep everything up off the pavement. If you start with the shorter ones, they will grind down real fast and by the time you're done sliding, your bike will grinding hard parts.

I crashed again this Saturday and the Cycle Cats protected great!

Are these crashes "track crashes"?  What approx. speeds?

Cuz that makes a bit of a difference.

It looks like I can finally post! Hope this works....
I've crashed both street and track. My point is that the farther they stick out, the more protection you have. When you start sliding, the plastic grinds down pretty quick. The shorter ones look better to most people, but will grind down faster and when you run out of plastic...you start rubbing bike parts. :'(

I know that GSG-moto in Germany (http://gsg-moto.de/) makes fork and swingarm sliders for Monsters. Twistedthrottle.com carries at least some of their bits and bobs.

I just crashed over the Memorial Day weekend and had the Cyclecat sliders on (the right side broke clean off) and they did an excellent job of causing minimal damage to the bike. I was fortunate not to be too badly hurt and neither was the bike. I'll gladly purchase another set...I stick with what I know works.
