Fixing them required the removal of the layered fairing panels, which is a lot of effort.
BHP’s JSaarinen recently shared this with other enthusiasts:
Since no crash protection was available for the RS457 as stock, I went ahead and got the RK Tech parts frame sliders installed. I found them to be well engineered and sturdy with a two point mounting on the frame. Fixing this required removal of the layered fairing panels, which is a lot of effort. The work was done satisfactorily by Motorrad Theory, Bangalore.
