- In this video, I’m going to show you exactly how to install Shogun No-Cut frame sliders on any 2015, 2016, 2017, or 2018 Yamaha R3.
Get yourself a set of these sliders! amzn.to/38e5PRm
** I forgot to mention this in the video, but when you remove the engine mount bolts, make sure to remove the washers as well before installing the frame sliders! If you don't, the frame slider may feel loose or spin in place. **
For this installation, you’ll need the following items:
Shogun No-Cut Frame Sliders (amzn.to/38e5PRm)
⅜” Drive Breaker Bar
⅜” Drive Ratchet
⅜” Drive Extension
⅜” Drive Torque Wrench
8mm Hex / Allen Socket (amzn.to/38jK9DO)
Blue Loctite or Permatex
Shop Towels
Nitrile Gloves
Torque Specs: Bolts should be torqued to 49 lb/ft

LMAO dude I'm installing them after I had a slide 🤣 I wasn't even riding out in the street, I was practicing leaning on my u turns then bam I slid
Thanks for the video, especially the torque spec info. My husband just installed the frame sliders on my R3.
Hey man, thanks for making this video. Really made my installation easier. Especially since my R3 was used and didn’t come with a manual. Thanks for sharing the tourque specs.
Happy it helped!
you left the original washer on 2:50, but great video, just did this today to my r3. Thank you!
I had the same frame sliders and let me tell you, it’s not the move they snap so easily
Thank you for listing tools needed helped with the purchase as well
Great Video!! Literally took 5 minutes.... Do you have video for the rear tire spools install?
great diy video. thank you!
Man, you really did things by the book bro! I used a socked with an extension in 8mm and that was all I needed lol. They were tight and secure, so that checks out as being "fine". Why use multiple tools when you can use one since it's literally a single bolt just connecting the sliders onto each side? Haha...just like when I was told about having to have a certain pound of torque for my sparkplugs, meh....it's fiiiine, they all are equal in tightness (from what I can tell from feel) and my bike runs perfectly fine. I didn't need any unnecessary torque wrench, that's all a bunch of phooey lol...I don't believe in things needing a certain amount (pounds) of torque. Psh, if it works, it's sturdy and doesn't cause any problems then obviously there is no issue.
I remember when I installed them initially, I watched this video...I was writing down what I needed. I listened with the pen in my hand as you mentioned stuff (while nodding my head hearing "this will help...." thinking, "ok what is the actual size of the bolt piece I need to remove/reinstall it nothing else matters), so once I heard 8mm hex allen socket and finally wrote something down. I heard something about a torque wrench after but shrugged and went my usual route of "eh torque wrenches are more of a suggestion for doing mods" lol. I seriously have NEVER used a torque wrench on my bikes when installing parts and have never had an issue because of it haha. The only time I used a torque wrench was back when I cared about having a nice modded out car (GTI). Too much trouble to get a torque wrench and they're too expensive, this isn't early 2000's Autozone where you could just rent tools all day long for free haha (my buddies and I have a V-Dub club in early 2000's and would ALWAYS rent out part to do our work on our cars...especially that fucking PROPRIETARY oil filter attachment.) My thought is... If they meant for me to use a torque wrench ever then some of my after market parts would have come with it, so I don't need one ever.
To each their own! I had the tools and wanted to show exactly what the instructions said - but you're right, it probably won't kill you if you don't use a torque wrench lol
Where did you find the torque specs? I can’t find them in my owners manual
I took them straight from the owner's manual - if you go to 5:43 in the video I show the torque specs in the book 👍🏻
Any idea if these will fit on the 2022? Bike seems to be the exact same as prior models
So which one is left and right frame slider?
Do you have any link for those LED turning signals?
The signals on the bike when I made this video were installed by the previous owner, however here's the link for the halo turn signals I installed:

Just make sure to add an aftermarket relay if you install LED signals so that the flash rate is correct! TST also sells a plug and play relay as well
will this fit a 2024 r3?
did you find out? i’ve got a 2023 and was wondering the same thing
I'm sorry but I believe these only fit 2015 - 2018
Do I need to torque it?
If you have a torque wrench, I'd recommend doing it. If you over-tighten a bolt, you could damage the threads or snap the head off. Under-tighten and you risk the bolt coming loose.
If you don't have a torque wrench, places like AutoZone will loan them for free, but you might as well buy one if you plan to do any other work in the future.
Drop of thread lock you’ll be fine
Do bike dealers typically carry sliders on inventory?
I'd imagine most dealerships carry sliders because dealers make lots of money in markups on accessories and parts. That said, I bought these on amazon. If you get into an accident, Shogun will replace the damaged sliders for free (ask me how I know lol)
@@jeffycr3169 Got it. 👍🏾🙏🏾
LMAO my clutch broke day 1 on my r3 the same place! the ball broke off :( i put duct tape on it lol
