Also, what bike would you like to see me offer sliders for? (Probably under $40 a pair!  :D)

so I'm guessing black and white are standard colors that go without saying?

Yes, black and white go w/o saying.

No, no green yet. :-/

Brown is available, Kris. I didn't think it'd be too popular though. Just wanted to see what kind of responses I'd get.  :D

I haven't looked a LOT for Green yet. One supplier had all their available colors listed, and brown was one of them.  :P  

I will try and find some green. If I can, are you interested in that?

EDIT: Whoops! That supplier DOES have green! So, add green to the list. Just do a text response if you'd like green.

Uh, yeah, brown would look like...well, you know...

Black really for me.  Seems to look ok after it's gone down, or at least similar.

R6 for me...2003, but you know that.

What type of plastic are you using?

If it's regular white nylon, you can dye it in your kitchen.  I used to do it quite often with R/C car parts.  You can get a special dye for nylon or else Rit clothing dye will work.

Basically cook up a pot of boiling water, add the dye, and put the parts in.  Let them cook until they are as dark as you want - usually about 15 minutes or 1/2 hour.   Then rinse and air dry.

Maybe something big like a slider would take a little longer to heat up.  Try it on a scrap and see what you think.

Wouldn't it be cool if you could get a tie-dye pattern somehow....

Nate R

 Would be cool, but won't that start to wear in the sun?

Maybe that's what Pro-Tek Does?  ???

Anyway, it's not plain nylon, but I will probaby give this a shot to see how it goes.

People want grey, eh?

Now, what bikes? I could make grey sliders, or red or blue or yellow, but it doesn't help you if I make them for the SV if you have a GSXR.

Thanx for the input, everyone!  :D
