Default Driven Racing Axle Block Sliders for BMW S1000RR

Protect your BMW’s swingarm from damage in the event of a crash with axle adjuster block swingarm sliders from Driven Racing. These swingarm sliders not only help reduce, if not entirely eliminate – damage from a sliding type crash to your BMW’s swingarm, but they also add a trick appearance to your bike and make it easier to obtain proper chain tension when changing wheels. Driven Racing axle block sliders are precision machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum to tighter tolerances than the OEM chain adjuster blocks. It is due to this quality machining that there is less play between the axle and the adjustment blocks when tightening the axle bolt after rear wheel installation. Barring a sprocket change, your axle blocks are less likely to require adjustment to maintain the same chain tension when changing out wheels.

Driven axle block sliders are available in limited quantities in your choice of black, red or gold colors for the BMW S 1000 RR.

These are not yet available on our website. To order, call TJ at 866.931.6644 ext 817 or, you can email us with any questions you may have. Send those to FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM with BMW AXLE SLIDERS in the subject line and we’ll get back to you right away.

All Driven Racing swingarm slider kits come with everything you see here: instructions, axle adjuster blocks and swingarm slider elements.


Further aiding in crash resistance, the slider elements themselves have a metal sleeve that goes between the hard plastic outer and the bolt that holds it against the axle block.


Axle block sliders are CNC-machined from aerospace grade aluminum providing a perfect fit for your motorcycle.


Here they are mounted on our BMW project bike.


Notice that, even if the slider element is completely worn through in a crash, there is still some metal material left to protect the expensive swingarm from damage.


Only black, gold and titanium colors are available for the BMW. Call today to order!

Do the sliders need to be removed from the axle adjuster blocks for wheel removal or can the sliders stay put once installed?

These are quite simple unlike the Gilles. You are basically removing the OEM block and replacing it with the new Driven block that has the slider attached.
