Those will protect the fairing in the situation in which your bike went down, a simple driveway drop. However, they suck balls if you go down at speed. The bracket will bend and damage the frame. I speak from experience. Frame sliders are meant to protect the frame, not the fairings. The "no body modification" sliders suck balls. Buy some real frame sliders and throw the others in the trash. I wouldn't even sell them to some clown on ebay, simply because they suck.
