Getting a new bike is awesome but that great feeling can quickly turn to sadness if your investment isn't properly protected.

That plastic cap is no joke 😂 it whooped my ass for a minute
Same, that was the hardest part for me
Also had to run to Home Depot on the grom to buy a 14mm ratcheting wrench
You guys helped me so much with my Kawasaki z 400 2022 that im upgrading to a new Kawasaki zx-6r this year.
oooooh that new zx6R sure is nice. Not a big departure from the previous model but enough that it keeps it exciting.
If you get the plastic piece broke off in the threads when doing the step 10:27 use the screw provided to get the plastic stuck in the frame out by putting it in and unscrewing it back out
Legend! Thank you!
heyyyyy I asked if this video was coming 3 weeks ago and I was told there was not going to be one lol. Glad this video was made. Now I can get it and feel comfortable installing it.
We had to produce the video so you guys can install our parts easily. We do video installation instructions on most of our parts nowadays
@@TSTindustriespeople feel better seeing how it’s done compared to reading diagrams sometimes. Sure does make me feel better.
@@ZACHE04 we offer a downloadable diagram on our website for those that need the reference. However, the video instruction format has been much more successful at enabling our customers to install our parts, so that is the main instructional mode we use nowadays. Great to hear you are finding it useful. Cheers!
For the cap you mentioned at 10:25, You dont have to pry it out. It can simply be unscrewed
This Is the answer😂😂
@@JSP20000729 wish I saw this earlier LMAO the thing snapped off and the entire thing is inside. It got pushed in when I tried to pluck it out
Just mounted them, these are great 👍
@@Matze_RSV4 thanks for the kind words and support!
I didn’t do it nearly as fast and with a lot more swearing but great video really helped out!
Awesome to hear!
What is the name of the tool you use to extract the cap on the panel; the flat tool. I don’t want to cut a water bottle.
I like how sleek they are. Is that enough thickness/clearance that most of the fairings are damaged?
The result always depends on the mode of the crash. Every crash is different. We used the experience we have amassed along with engineering principles to design these components to primarily safeguard the vital parts of the bike. Saving the fairings is a secondary protection objective so that takes a back seat to protecting the more important parts.
In other words no these are not going to protect your fairings
The force applied for the M6 screws is it 8 lb-ft or 9 lb-ft ?, the diagram on the website says 9lb-ft and the vide says 8lb-ft
Thank you for catching this inconsistency. Please torque to 8 ft-lb. We will correct the diagram. Cheers!

What torq wrench is that ???
Do you guys delivery to Spain?
Not at this time but you may be able to shop within our dealer network.
After installation, I noticed that my handlebars have a lot more vibration than usual. Is this normal?
This installation should not lead to more vibrations if done correctly. I advise you inspect the engine bolt connections to ensure the frame is properly clamped onto the engine. If you are uncomfortable making this assessment, or do not have the appropriate experience, please trailer the bike to a motorcycle shop to get it inspected.
@@TSTindustries I had it installed at my mechanic. They also installed the Womet-Tech Bar Ends For Kawasaki ZX6R 2019+. Could over-torquing that also lead to extra vibrations?
No use of any loctite for this install?
Not necessary if torqued properly.
The right side bolt wont go in i think its not aligned anymore when i took it off
If you’re careful, you can use some method of supporting the motor while trying to realign the mounting holes. We’ve used a scissor jack with a large surface area and a piece of wood on top to accomplish this.
Should i loosen the right side mount while doing this? Ive been trying to jack up from the oil pan but it seems like the engine moved backwards
@@mjayson30 you can loosen it but do not remove it fully. Additionally, try to avoid lifting from the oil pan if possible to avoid damage.
I fixed it, thanks for the quick response you guys are awesome! Will be doing more business with you guys soon 💯👍
So, there is a risk of the engine becoming misaligned even when installing the sliders one at a time?
Please restock lol Sliders and integrated tail lights are out of stock :(
We are making more
what happens if that plastic clip snaps and is stuck inside how do i get it out 😅
You have several options. You can get a small drill bit and drill a through hole in the remnant of the push fastener. Then use an EZ-out to carefully get it out. Another approach is to just push the remnant in but then it will remain in there. This technically does not harm anything but is the lazy punk way of doing work on a bike
@@TSTindustriesI rather be a "lazy punk" than risk scratching the paint on my new bike with a drill
@@DatNguyen-sr6rv fair enough
Frame slides 2023 = 2024 ?
I’m not sure I understand the question but these only fit the 2024+ model.
