What do you mean by "piece out of slider"? The slot that is missing, can you just cut it in? That part after all only slightly supports the slider.
Just modified photos.

Not going to easy to 'cut' a slot in without making comprising it at that point.
'Piece out of slider' is no missing in bottom photo
Well I'm doing the YZF600R rear wheel conversion so I'll probably get one so I don't damage the swing arm and have to redo the rear with a different swing arm package for such a disposable part. Thanks to Hot Foot for even attempting this project.

Not worth the cash as you'll possibly damage it trying to make it fit.

There's a one for sale on eBay from Michigan - I know it says it's from Hot Foot Moto, so is this different to the one you referred to above Bud ?

Yes, it's missing a piece and the slot for rear retaining bolt
You'll have to modify it which could comprise its durability, or it'll break at that spot

Sparky, I was just wondering, does that copy have a piece where it screws on the swing arm with a little Phillips screw, on the upper part of the slider. If you know what I mean. Can't see that part on your pics.
