Sportster Upper Shock Sliders

Upper Shock Frame Sliders for 1995–2021 Harley-Davidson Sportster Models (XL883, XL883C, XL883R, XL883L, XL883N, XL1200, XL1200C, XL1200L, XL1200N, XL1200R, XL1200T, XL1200V, XL1200X, XL1200XS)

Protect your rear shocks and frame with our Upper Shock Frame Sliders, engineered specifically for 1995–2021 Harley-Davidson Sportster models. These frame sliders mount directly to the upper shock bolt and are designed to help shield your shocks and the rear section of your bike in the event of a crash or tip-over.

Crafted from impact-resistant Delrin, these sliders are built to slide across the pavement instead of catching, helping to minimize the risk of flipping your bike during a slide. Delrin’s natural slipperiness and toughness make it ideal for high-impact applications like crash protection.

This is a direct bolt-on kit that includes all necessary spacers and Grade 8 hardware for a solid install—no cutting, welding, or modifications required. Even if you're using factory shocks with OEM covers, these sliders are designed to work with them seamlessly.
