Having a bit of trouble getting a chain slider sorted.

I tried a cheap Chinese one off ebay and the rubber was too soft and it chewed it up and covered the chain with bits of rubber.

I have just tried another one which is supposed to be made in Japan and a good quality. The rubber was a little harder, but it is still chewing out very quickly and leaving rubber everywhere.

What are other people running? And has anyone had a similar experience and it stopped chewing out once it was worn in a bit more?

Watfordhorn of this parish has a genuine one on that there auction site, it's in the uk, but if your desperate !!!!.

I've not seen the pattern ones so cant comment but I have struggled to find a decent used one. They tend to get a bit brittle with age and the strap that connects the top an bottom halves together breaks very easily.

I broke the last one I bought un wrapping it, ended up using some black RTV to glue it to the swinging arm!!! Bit of a bodge but it works a treat and the chances of finding a good used one are pretty slim.

Very slim chance of finidng one indeed......message me if you need one, I will remove it from the auction site.

I've experienced the same problem. Too bad they don't use the proper rubber, having the mold and manufacturing infrastructure in place. I've just bought another as mine is chewed through to the swingarm. Maybe that's the plan (planned obsolescence).

That's what pisses me off with any of the Chinese stuff. They are more than capable of producing a superb product, but cut corners at every available opportunity in the name of profit!

Unfortunately, outside of Japan, it's common Asian mentality. The only reason you get good stuff out of TYGA is because of western quality control. Buy motorcycle parts from anywhere else in Thailand, and you will soon see what I mean!
