How do you get the little fuse boxes off the left side. I’ve been pulling at mine and I’m afraid I’m gonna bend or break parts of the plastic.
Not gonna lie this made for one hell of an ASMR video. Very precise high quality soft mechanical sounds coming from the mechanic and the background noises are nice and quiet, and you can even hear the water droplets lol. Idk what type of mic he used but damn... Crazy good mic. This is going straight into my ASMR playlist :). Also thanks for the tutorial, helped me out a ton!
Came for the advice, stayed for the relaxation lol
@@brianappleby5481 Precisely 🤣
You are awesome as armyrunt said, 4 years later this is so helpful. PDF manual had lame pictures that would have required a magnifying glass even when fully zoomed'! Thanks again. FFS I cannot stress enough watch the damn washer. It slipped so much I had to lay my bike down to get it back in position.
Hey man! Just got frame slides for my bike as well! Just got done installing and I don't access to a torque wrench I just tightened the bolt with an Allen key really good, as far as it could go. Is that bad? I don't want to mess anything up. Mines a Z400 but whatever 🤣
good vid brotha
I'm assuming it's the same for a 2023 Ninja?
So are the shogun sliders mounted into the engine themselves? Or do they mount through the frame?
Thanks for the help!
Does anyone have an update on the frame bolt’s torque? Is it still 51 lbs of torque?
I believe it's 32 ft lbs for the ninja 400
Yeah I've read it was 32
Can we just use ratchet instead of the torque wrench?
skpal hey! You can always use a ratchet but just make sure it's tighten correctly!
How do you like the bike so far? Any problems of any kind?
I love it! I'm actually planning on making a review video pretty soon here; and no! No problems!
MotoFonts cool man I look forward to it. I’m picking up my 400 tomorrow morning.
Bro thanks so much man this is perfect! How much was the slider kit?
I got the carbon kit, which was $140, they have $90 options too
MotoFonts do you think it's worth the extra $50? Also do you have the link?
arvin mendoza I'm not sure if it's "worth" it, but I do like it!

MotoFonts thanks a lot! Getting mine hopefully this weekend. Are you a motorcycle mechanic or just mechanically good ?
arvin mendoza lol just not afraid to turn some bolts :P
Speak up. Use your man voice.
Dustin Cobb yea I know, I was dealing with some personal things, kept me off my A game for sure. It'll be better once I get back to it!
@@motofonts5095 You have a very pleasant voice. You just need to get the mic closer. Have you thought of using a wireless lav that you can clip to your collar? I didn't think I saw one in the video and just thought I might suggest it.
Turn your volume up! I didn't have any trouble hearing anything.
4 years later and this still helped me thanks
6 years later
Aye bro! Just wanna say thank you for posting this video! Called about 5/6 places and everybody was booked till June to install my frame sliders. But with this video I just installed them myself. Saved me about $150! Again thank you!
James Phillips awesome to hear! You're welcome! :)
Dude how were you not freezing lol
Dude I have a Miata and a Ninja 400 too! 😆
i was told to put a jack underneath the engine casing while doing this?
Thanks a ton for specific info on each bolt location. Helped on ton in my engine guard install…have two bolts left over but close enough 😂
Great video. Thanks for sharing. Installed my sliders with little drama.
another one who bit the bullet on the ninja 400.. awesome video btw.. getting the fairing off (with the pull tabs hidden) makes me jittery. you make it look easy tbh. Also, i was looking at the carbon finish frame sliders from shogun (those look real bada**) but are not in stock anywhere. guess will have to wait and do this later.
will you be able to do a step by step guide how to remove the fairings, i want to do it alone but i dont have enough confidence so the frame sliders still sit in their box.... i will really appriciate it, thanks
AlcatrazMeow hey! Not sure if you found this video yet or not, but SBT made a video just for this!

I don’t know if it’s been mentioned but the bolts by the fuses are 8 mm but thank you for the walk through it helped
Niggah you need a hair cut asap 💈💇♂️
The side light is the most difficult ughhhh
Why are the Christmas tree tabs so hard to pull out
Is the Shogun slider keyed in any way to stop it rotating, or does it rely on the tightness of the bolt?
SportbikerNZ Bolt Torque IIRC. It won't be going anywhere if you do it right.
Good video bro, I just bought mine a week ago (same color) and I'm looking for frame sliders, thanks!
My Nick name is retro
Great video. Thank u
To retro
I just put mine on AFTER I fkd up my fairing 😂
Don't feel bad, I just dropped my bike a week ago. When it had only 90 miles on it, slipped on gravel at a stop sign. Funny thing....had frame sliders in a box next to the bike but hadn't gotten around to installing yet. Sigh...a few scratches on the 400 logo stickers in the right side now....looking around to see if I can just buy the stickers and replace them.
Great video, thanks for posting.
Just attempted to install the same no-cut frame sliders on my wife's Ninja 400, left side first, the Shogun engine bolt seems a hair too long as I can't get it tighten enough to hold the offset in place, still a few turns short. Did you run into that? I wonder if I have a defective bolt. It's close, but not close enough.
djwordnyc just making sure, but did you remember to put the OEM spacer back in place??
We were having the same issue on the left side until I figured out I was using the wrong location on the frame. There is location further back on the frame with the same bolt and spacer....oops.
I had the same problem. The Shogun installation instructions for the left side has an incorrect photograph (along side of a correct location photo) that shows the wrong location for where the engine bolt came from. The right location is forward to what is shown in the second photograph of step 3 of the Shogun installation instructions.
