Yeah! Thanks to all of the positive opinions on the Conti Road Attacks and Motosliders I just placed my orders! Cant wait to try the Contis out, the stock tires slid out on me 1 time to many! I almost went with another set of the Pilot roads but I need to try out some new stuff.
I ordered the tires from Ride Direct and had a very positive experience with them. The Tires were in stock and I already have a UPS tracking # for them!
Front = 120\60\17 @ $106.95
Rear = 160\60\17 @ $116.95
These are the best prices I could find and the salesman(Jamie) was very helpful and friendly! I get them on Tuesday.

I ordered the Motosliders from Blair @ SVracingparts.com and had another positive experience! Blair emailed me back with in the hour and they are also on the way.
Thanks to everyone who has shared their experiences with these products and I will sure write and tell everyone how I feel about the Contis!

Can anyone tell me what size socket I will need to install the Motosliders?

 

[Chubblebeeks]

Trying to recall-- 17 mm deep ? ???



Can anyone confirm?




Might want two of the correct size so you can tighten both sides together simultaneously for the finish...

Good idea!
Thanks

i believe that is correct. you need 2 17mm sockets, and one must be a deep one.

I am on it!

Make sure you mount the RA's correctly. The front and rear should be opposite looking as far as tread direction. I have been looking at pictures from this site and have realized that many people have them mounted wrong.

I believe that they may have changed the layout over time.

both of mine are mounted facing the same way and that is the way the arrow on the side indicates to do it.

I have the directional arrows also.

I will make sure and mount according to the directional arrows. Thanks.

Sockets are either 16 or 17mm, deep.

VAR9- Thanks. I really gotta change my Avatar

You're going to need some 6" or 8" extension pieces too.

Nex, what are the extentions for?

 

[Nexus242]

To go between the socket and wrench. The sliders holes are pretty deep.

Cool
Thanks!

 

[Nexus242]

Don't forget the blue locktite too.

 

[Nexus242]

And you do have a torque wrench right??

 

[VARIABLE9]

All that stuff Nex added is valid. No worries on the avatar - its a good one.

2 x 19mm sockets, one needs to be deep.
