tuny,
It looks like you've got a green exhaust/muffler slider/protector ...? (I was reading about how to make these on supermotojunkies the other day.)
And your sliders, the ones you've got mounted by the radiators -- please tell more.

I guess that the slider at the exhaust is a piece of a tube.....

Yes. They make them from car coolant tubes, something like that. Get tubing + big hose clamp, measure, cut, and slowly work the hose clamp through it, flattening the tube with a vice and heating it to work the hose clamp through it.

The coloured ones are made by a guy in the UK, on e-bay; 2 of the guys on the smj thread had got from him. (And then seen they could make better themselves.) It is for racing, when you want to save the exhaust from slide damage.

I saved all the pictures from smj.
