Frame sliders for 2001 Sprint ST

I need help. I want to add protection to my 2001 Sprint ST, but not sure which brand of frame slider is best and which location on the bike are crucial to have covered. Should you have more then bar and front frame sliders? Do you need front fork and rear swing are sliders? Thanks guys for you help.

Fraught question. Sliders will protect your plastics when you slide; perversely, if they mount to the engine bolts a low speed spill can write off the bike. I've had the Skyking ones fitted - good quality, now sitting in the garage while I decide what kind of accident I'm likely to have...

+1 on the Skykings!

I never got past those; not having the inclination nor the money to buy the fork and swingarm sliders. I don't think they'd help much; the fairings and pegs'd touch first.
