I've read several reports of sliders breaking apart because they didn't have metal inserts. If you buy w/o metal inserts I don't recommend you torque to Yamaha specs (40 ft lbs). BTW, I'm surprised you found correct slider bolts locally because they're not the easiest items to find around here. I learned that trying to torque down slider bolts too short will end up stripping the precious engine mount threads. So, buying and installing sliders can f'up your threads if they don't come with the proper length bolts. "Caveat emptor!"
