    Default Group Buy for ETI R6 Tank Sliders

    Alright guys,
    Here is the deal. I am trying to set up a group buy to help out my buddy Ryan and also to bring this great product to those that want it for a better price. I am going to be running this group buy on multiple forums. If we can come up with close to 20 people in this group buy we would be able to do it for $170 shipped. This is $26 off buying it from ETI directly. If you did not see my review on this product before here is some info on them, these are definitely the best tank sliders on the market and will help keep your bike from catching on fire during a wreck.

    From ETI's website:

    Since their introduction back in June of 2007, our R6 tank guards have helped a number of rider/owners from barbequing their investment on the track. Designed to help reduce the possibility of impact abrasion related failures of the stock tank, these protectors form fit the tank and front cover. Produced using the same materials utilized in our lightweight fuel tank construction they now include 6 layers of kevlar at the most vulnerable spots on the stock tank. Besides looking good they help transmit impact loads over a larger area further reducing the energy to be absorbed by the stock tank. HARDWARE KIT AND INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDED.

    Here are two pictures of the product installed on a tank before paint.


    Here is a picture of a tank with eti sliders after a wreck


    Here is a video of what could happen without the tank sliders


    If you are interested please post up or pm me. I will update this topic as I get individuals from any of the forums it will be listed on.

    Thanks

    DAMN!!! Just bought mine. Well worth the money and they follow the tank contours great. DEf rec to anyone. Even guys who only ride the street. Much cheaper than replacing a tank if/when you go down.

    You do have to drill into the cowl. Its easy and if its done right most people wont notice unless they are looking for it.

    PM sent. Looks like a small price to pay to keep your bike from going up in smoke. Have you considered posting this on gotogroupbuy.com? Got some MX guys there that are big into group buys and also race on the track. Might gain some more interest.

    Yes you do have to drill the front cover but it is hardly noticable. The rear portion mounts in a pre-existing screw used in the tank. These provide alot more coverage than any other slider on the market and are able to paint so they match the tank. Also keep in mind that most race organizations require tank sliders for the 06-07 R6's.
