Just installed the LighTech No-Cut Frame Sliders. Bought from OPP Racing (http://www.oppracing.com/products.php?action=show_product&id=3287).
The install was painless. It took longer to remove the fairings than it did to install the sliders. The one big advantage of these frame sliders over some of the competition (like Lockhart Phillips) is that the bracket has supports that wrap under the frame to support the bracket in the event the sliders actually get used.
The LP sliders just cantilever off the frame with no support other than the mounting bolt. Seems like they could easily bend or snap off. These appear much, much more solid.
They have a slightly industrial look, with the indentions in the face. I think I like it better than the blingy carbon fiber, chrome, etc sliders.
I recommend them to anyone looking for no-cut sliders.
Here's the left side.
