Gsg Moto Sliders

[radman]

Anyone using, or heard of GSG Moto sliders? I see some really cheap ones, look like MOKO's, and would like some idea before I buy. Linkage-

Well, I went ahead and got them. Couldn't pass on them, the price was $28, plus shipping, for a total of 37.50. On Ebay now, these things normally go for $100-200. Wild Hair Accessories sells them in the US, if ya wanna look see.

Here is the Ebay link-

From what I can see by the picture the brackets look EXACTLY like the slider brackets that came with the Matesse sliders I paid $200+ for! So if they are even decent quality you did good!

Oh sure, throw out this teaser when they are all already sold!

What a great deal. Just hope its not a scammer, cause usually, "if its too good to be true........"

Keep us posted on their arrival.

Ya, the first thing I did was check Ebay......denied

 

[radman]

They showed 7 sets, and the guy had 570+ feedback hits, no bads. Looked legit to me.

 

[radman]

Unbelievable. Gone in 60 seconds. Sorry guys.

 

[super d]

Perhaps there will be more, but odds are the price will go up. Supply and demand.

Got them today, new and complete as advertised, went on easier than I expected. Getting this fairing removal to an art now. Was somewhat surprised at the amount of aluminum corrosion on the motor mount bolts though. Lower ones looked like a coke users dream...

Son-of-a-bitch! Nice find radman. Those are dead-nuts ringers for the MOKO's. I wonder how he 'acquired' the 7 sets? Hmmmm....

Now, ya think Wild Hair will refund me the difference?

 

[SkooterG]

Good for ya, rad. Ebayer's identities can get hijacked by scammers, so positive feedback is not necessarily a sure thing, ya know?

Glad to hear all worked out for you, ya bastard. I spend $42 one ONE replacement puck recently, not to mention $170 or so for the original set.

True Mr G. But for 28 bucks, it was worth a shot. Almost makes up for gettin' screwed on the exhaust from that jerk at That Other Site I . In any case, I be a happy camper. Now all I need to do is get my hands on a decent seat. My ass is gettin kinda tired of that board and sponge cake Yammi calls a perch.

radman,

did you use any antiseize on the bolts when you installed the sliders, or did you fasten them without lube?

Thanks

 

[radman]

Straight up. Torque values are for unlubed bolts. The corrosion was on the unthreaded shank of the bolt, not the threaded area.

Thanks for the info radman.
