03-06 HONDA CBR600RR FRAME SLIDER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Note: The instructions are based on using the special alignment tool available on our
website, however, the tool does not necessarily need to be used.
Part I: Cutting the Holes
1) Remove the right side mid fairing, disconnecting it from the lower and upper cowl.
2) Place the alignment tool into the hexagonal shaped bolt head of the right, forward motor mount- this is where the
slider will be attached. The sharp point of the alignment tool should be facing outward and the tool should have no
lateral movement.
3) Estimate where the frame slider hole will be in the fairing and cut out a three-inch piece of the foam strip that is
glued onto the inside of the fairing- this will enable you to make a mark on the inside of the fairing with the alignment
tool.
4) With the alignment tool in place, re-attach the fairing to the bike using at least three of the body screws. Make
certain that the fairing is securely and precisely attached to the bike.
5) Press firmly on the fairing in the area of the tool to achieve a mark on the inside of the fairing. This mark is the
center of the frame slider hole.
6) Remove the fairing again. You are now ready to cut the hole in your fairing for the slider.
7) Select a hole saw that is ¼” bigger in diameter than the size of the slider and has a small pilot drill bit in it.
8) Begin the cut by placing the tip of the drill bit on the mark made by the alignment tool and drilling through the
plastic. At this point it is advisable to place the fairing back on the bike and insure the pilot hole is center with the
motor mount bolt head. If so, you may now use the hole saw to cut through the plastic.
9) The procedure for cutting the hole in the left fairing is the same except for one point: The motor mount screw
must be broken loose and backed out enough for the tool to make contact with the inside of the fairing. The tool will
be placed in the hole that goes through the center of the bolt.
Part II: Installing the Sliders
1) Remove the nut on the backside of the motor mount bolt using the closed end of a 17mm wrench.
2) Loosen the pinch bolt on the frame and push the bolt out of the hole. If the bolt does not slide out easily it may be
necessary to support the engine with a hydraulic jack. Place the jack under the oil pan using a piece of wood or
rubber mat between the jack and the oil pan.
Note: An aluminum spacer that lies between the engine and frame could fall out of place, but should easily slide
back into place. Do not omit this spacer when installing the right slider.
3) The shorter slider of the set goes on the right side of the bike. The aluminum sleeve will go inside the frame
under the pinch bolt. Place the slider and bolt with the sleeve into the motor mount hole, making certain the
aluminum spacer mentioned in step 2 is in place.
4) Lightly lubricate (any type of automotive grease or oil will work) the bolt threads. Thread the factory 17mm nut
back on the new bolt and firmly tighten it using a ratchet with a 19mm socket to keep the bolt from turning. Then
tighten the pinch bolt and finally, torque the nut on the back side down.
5) On the left side, you must simply remove the motor mount bolt and install the remaining slider using the provided
bolt. Lightly lubricate (any type of automotive grease or oil will work) the bolt threads. Be certain not to cross the
threads or over-torque the bolt. DO NOT USE A BREAKER-BAR TO TIGHTEN THE BOLT. TORQUE TO 30-35 FT-
LBS.
6) At this point the fairings can be replaced on the bike.
Important: The sliders should be cleaned with an automotive wax or polish on a regular basis. Doing so will prevent
normal oxidation of the plastic.
