Plastic cutting boards wear very well. Kinda a pain to get formed (use a hand torch) but do work well (and inexpensive at resale shops~Goodwill

Looks like the same chain guide a Tri z uses

Snowmobile slider, cut to length..build a guide and screw it the slider material to it..

check out this slider I believe it will work for you. http://www.yamahapartshouse.com/oemparts/a/yam/50038897f870021f60a09ba8/swing-arm-suspension
That's the one I was thinking of muthey
Many dirtbikes run those sliders these days and have a metal housing around the plastic to add a guard around the slider to protect it from rocks. Those could be an option.
Someone suggested the Z slider. Imo A banshee rear slider will be larger/ longer and offer more chain support and can be trimmed if needed and should be way easier to obtain.

Looks like a TM designworks rear chain guide for a banshee or trx450r might work if it's the rear chain guide your looking for...

I ran a banshee rear guide on my 310 bike.

Enough of the saga already...CBX that swingarm takes the Banshee chain guide. I've seen a 100's of them..most if not all aftermarket swingarms use the banshee chain guide in that area. On to the next mystery people.

Thanks for replies. Yes I was looking for the correct or best looking for this application. I have worked on jap bikes since mid 70s but blanked out in this one. And have no time to waste. Dunes on Sunday. I have seen nice white guides and kinda want one but now need to see what Banshee guides are avail FAST. Mike

RATV in Glendale I am sure has them in stock. Screwie Louies in Deer Valley probably has them as well. I can go to Screwie Louies at lunch and check.....Text or PM me Mike.

The front chain slider is TM Designworks. The trike I believe is a 250r with CR500 Conversion.
So what gets bolted on the front of that awesome looking swing arm (chain slider wise) ????
