    They're something like nylon bumper stops that usually mount on the frames of sport bikes so when they go down they're suppose to protect parts of the motorcycle from getting messed up. But the ones for the ZR mount to the front engine mount and stick out past the cases.

    I'm not real sure on this, but I think frame sliders only benefit fully faired sportbikes such as the ZX6R, R1's, etc. or true sportbikes. They keep the fairing off the pavement. The engine guards that Kawi sells are probably what benefits the naked or semi faired ZR7s the most. Not sure though. Tom
