Swing arm sliders



FAQ about Xpert Moto's Swing arm sliders Collection:

What are swing arm sliders and why are they important for motorcycles?

Swing arm sliders are protective pucks or knobs mounted to the rear swingarm of a motorcycle. They help absorb impact and abrasion if the bike tips over or slides, preventing expensive damage to the swingarm, axle, or chain adjusters. At Xpert Shop, we provide high-quality swing arm sliders that do double duty, offering protection during accidents and serving as spools for rear paddock stands. Whether you're at the track or parking in tight spaces, they’re a must-have upgrade.

What types of swing arm sliders does Xpert Moto Gear carry?

Xpert Moto Gear carries swing arm sliders in spool-style (for use with rear stands) and puck-style (for pure crash protection). We stock options for sportbikes, naked bikes, adventure models, and even some cruisers. Compatible brands include Yamaha, Kawasaki, Honda, Suzuki, KTM, Ducati, Triumph, and more. Our sliders feature durable Delrin or UHMW-PE pucks with anodized aluminum mounting bolts, built for impact and repeated use.

Do swing arm sliders affect rear wheel maintenance or riding?

No, they enhance rear wheel maintenance by making it easier to lift the bike on a paddock stand. Spool-style swing arm sliders are ideal for at-home maintenance, wheel swaps, or chain cleaning. They’re small, lightweight, and don’t interfere with riding, suspension travel, or cornering clearance. At Xpert Moto Gear, we design every slider to be low-profile and fully functional.

Are swing arm sliders from Xpert Shop easy to install?

Yes. Most swing arm sliders install into the factory-threaded holes in your swingarm using basic tools like an Allen wrench. If your swingarm doesn’t have pre-threaded bosses, we offer clamp-on and universal mounting kits. Installation typically takes less than 15 minutes. Each Xpert Shop product includes fitment info and hardware, and we’re here to assist if needed.

What materials are used in Xpert Gear Shop’s swing arm sliders?

Our swing arm sliders use high-impact Delrin or polyethylene for the sliders themselves, materials known for their abrasion resistance and ability to slide smoothly in a crash. The mounting hardware is made from stainless steel or anodized aluminum to prevent corrosion. All materials are selected for balance between weight, durability, and strength.
