..now think about it, who would consider these race sliders

I know they are a smidge of a visual challenge but consider the function and utility..I'm kinda new to the zx-14 world so although they offer modest visual distraction it still looks like a thing I could live with easily. Whatddya think??

consider the function and utility.. <---what is the function and utility, or how do we know what it is before seeing the bike slide on these at speed

GUYS hold up--- the question was about "consider the function and utility.."

so I thought he was asking us how they would hold up on a buck-fifty slide down the freeway, not how you guys think they "look" on the bike

I'm sure they are quite functional but they still look like

They are making ugly what they are there to protect, at least I didn't say they were

They dont look that bad to me. I wouldn't expect miracles, but at least it's not a full obnoxious stunt cage.

I'm getting them. Hope they come in black. The biz owner is super cool and for what you get they are very affordable. Rickey G. rides with them too.
