BTW, I think your channel is gold for SV riders. I need to take a look at your Jeep stuff, too. Bought a ‘97 TJ brand new when they came out. Have had it ever since
Hi, thanks for the videos... the ones on the back are used to lift the bike. Im using a pitt bull bike stand for the rear of the bike, those are my lift point. appreciate your videos, and have watched quite a few of them. I have a 2022 sv 650, and love it
how tye hell another stud is locked in? I can't install this since shogun used 19mm nuts and the socket doesn't fit inside the puck... U can try to use original 17mm nut that socket fits in the puck but there's no way to lock the fixed 19mm nut on the other side. This set is a complete disaster.
So, frame sliders I understand. Probably going to be one of my first mods. But I don’t understand the swingarm sliders. Aren’t the passenger peg mounts (or that sweet muffler) going to contact ground long before the swingarm? I mean, they look cool. And the bosses are there for some reason. But it seems the swingarm sliders should be quite a bit bigger. OBTW, picked up my 2020 SV650 yesterday. Feels so good.
Ya you’re right. I got them because they were cheap at the time and I hoped they would work with my rear stand. However that’s not the case lol oh well
don't get what use the swing arm slider on the exhaust side will serve..surely that should stick out further than the exhaust to save it getting damaged in the event the bike goes over..
Honestly man they came in a set so I put them both on lmao but to be fair the main frame slider on the body should help protect the exhaust, if the rear one came out further than the exhaust it would be a hazard for catching while leaning on turns I’m sure
Smokin Monkey fair point... I’m brand new to riding so learning every day but I’d be scared for that exhaust. Sure the frame slider and the end of the can would be the 1st point of contact... stay safe man.. you got an excellent tool box there too.. you work in the mechanical trade or something ?
I quote Organic Hotdog's comment from a similar video (and similar confusion): "those are not swingarm sliders. Those are what are called cotton reels or rear spools which are used to lift your real wheel off the ground with a rear stand. It's more stable than lifting the rear swingarm as you have done in this video. Most rear stands give you the option of lifting via the swingarm or spools."
Lmao no these are not spools these are about 3-4 times the size of my spools. These will not fit a stand lmao believe me I know what parts I have but thanks for trying
@@SmokinMonkeyOG Yes, I looked again at the video and realized I was wrong. I'm SV650 2018 owner and and I find you channel very insteresting. Keep on loading videos!
Thanks for the informational video! I just got my set but have a few questions. 1) Were the new bolts on your set of frame sliders both 19mm? 2) Were both of your frame sliders cut appropriately? One of my sliders seems like it is slightly too narrow (maybe a manufacturing default) because the socket wrench will get stuck in it when the nut is definitely the same size (19mm) on both sides.
Just bought a SV650 2020. I am going through all your videos as we speak. I saw your Shogun sliders on line but it is always for 17-19 model years. Would you happen to know if it would fit on my 2020? The 2020 is a 3rd generation after all. Thanks!
Thanks man! & that would be sweet!! I love those little bikes, so much fun to whip around on them! I want one still to this day as a second bike but dont have the room lol
Mike I just received my R&G Racing frame slider kit that installs identical to the Shogun set. Do you happen to know the torque spec. on that engine mount nut?
Honestly I don’t lol I kept going until I felt like I was going to tip the bike over off the rear stand lol but you can still rotate the sliders so I’m guessing it’s tight enough but not too tight
@@SmokinMonkeyOG No worries, I just checked another video. A guy installing the Suzuki slider kit. He indicates 70 ft. lbs. In the video. Just wanna be sure engine won't drop as I swap the bolt. I can see other engine mount bolts so it shouldn't be a problem.
My frame sliders have arrived now and i’m gonna put them on my self.. i bought R&G brand through the dealer as it was quicker than ebay because i don’t wanna ride too much with out the sliders .... i’ve dropped every bike i’ve had so don’t wanna take any chances. Was the original bolt easy to undo or does it require a fair bit of force (i ain’t very strong) and did you have to use ‘Thread locker’ when you fastened up the new bolt to stop it vibrating lose? I also bought a Radiator Guard form an Australian company called ‘Rad Guard’.
Not it was not that tight to take off. And I used nylon locking nuts instead of thread locker. I’m sure I could have asked the thread locker as well but I didn’t feel it needed it.
Does anyone know if this style of frame slider will fit the 2022 model? Are they the same motor mounts? I can't find sliders for the 2022 anywhere but found some Evotech sliders that are installed the same exact way as these ones, but they are 2018. Does it make a difference? Or is it the same rod and motor mount system?
@@SmokinMonkeyOG thanks man. Ya I went ahead and ordered the evotech. I doubt it's different. And if so for some strange reason I'll just return it. Thanks again.
Lol they were sold out everywhere but I kept checking the different sites that had them and once they were back in stock I jumped on it! Lol many different sites sell em I can’t remember where I got mine but I would check multiple websites and keep checking back untill they are in stock

Bruh....I couldn't get my nut/bolt to budge at all....you made it look so easy.
Not sure man mine came off pretty quick
@@SmokinMonkeyOG I think it was the heat. I went out a few hours later after it cooled down and it was pretty easy.
I'll call that an exhaust slider. The exhaust sticks out alot more than that swing arm slider.
Bro thank you so much for the upload, as you mentioned there were no instructions!!! Hah
Glad I could help man!
Keep them coming Bro, great stuff.
Thanks bro
Great video....
Tryin to get this bike in April...
Looking at all the stuff I can do to it...
Thx man!!!!
Thanks man appreciate the message!

Why didn't you use the old OEM bolt for the sliders
I don't think it's long enough , that's why they supply a new longer bolt as well .
Well hopefully you never need them, but it's good there on there now.
Agreed

Thanks! I used to be a car mechanic for years but have recently gotten out of the trade
link to the accessories?
Thanks for the video Smokin Monkey. Does the engine need to be supported while doing this? Can I just do it with the bike on the side stand? Thanks.
I don’t believe I had to support the engine since the other mounts are all still in place holding it up
Hey bro where did chu order those shogun frame sliders those specifics ones . Other sites just showing not the one you installed into the engine ya
I got mine from twistedthrottle.com but they are usually sold out. So I just kept going back and checking every week until I got a pair
Do you have to get two wrench extension in order to hold both ends when tightening it? Cuz I only have one and I can’t even get the original bolt off
Ya it’s gonna be a lot easier with two because one side will want to spin as you tighten the other side

Haha no worries man thanks for the support! Soon as this snow melts I’ll be back out making more SV content
Do you know where the front speed sensor plug in cuz mine go cut off and i cant find where it goes
No idea man sorry. I would try to look at a wiring diagram or something like that to see where the sensor lives

Not sure what size the nut was I haven’t touched the sliders in forever. But my socket fit both sides easy so might be a manufacturing defect
@@SmokinMonkeyOG sad... Thanks for the SV content!

Thanks!! I’m sure it would fit I don’t think they changed anything on the bike that would cause it not to.
What stand is that? Been looking into getting one soon.
Oxford brand and I think it’s called the big black stand lol or big bike stand something like that can’t remember now I bought it 5 years ago
I was thinking about buying a grom when I became 18 and also cool vid
Thanks man! & that would be sweet!! I love those little bikes, so much fun to whip around on them! I want one still to this day as a second bike but dont have the room lol

Is the shaft of shogun frame slider fit without any movement from side to side ?
Yes it fits right as long as you install it correctly
Thank you my friend for the fast reply
Does anyone know the part number for the stock engine nut and bolt as shown on the video @6:50.
what stand do you have?
Oxford
@@SmokinMonkeyOG thanks!
monkey what are these for.just got my sv
Saves the engine/frame in case you drop the bike or crash
thank you @@SmokinMonkeyOG
Where can you buy these?
Lol they were sold out everywhere but I kept checking the different sites that had them and once they were back in stock I jumped on it! Lol many different sites sell em I can’t remember where I got mine but I would check multiple websites and keep checking back untill they are in stock
I’m not a fan of frame sliders, they’re just too odious. I’d suggest engine case cover instead.
might save a leg
You have a lot of oil, poor motorcycle.
It’s just the angle the bike is on. The back of the bike is higher up so the oil flowed to the front of the motor lol
