There are some that are really cheap knock offs. Usually sold on EBay. They tend to be made with cheap metal and fail.
Look for ones that you can just replace the pucks and not the whole thing if you have a light tip over.
Love my Woodcrafts. I can just replace the pucks on these if they get scuffed.

R&G make a nice set for the FZ1, and Oggy Knobs are a local Aussie brand that are well respected too.
some use softer plastic than others too.

I crash tested some inexpensive Shogun frame sliders. They did a fantastic job.

That's what I have and they cost bugger all compared to Oggy Knobs which are a rip off in comparison.

Are they torqued or just tightened

Torqued as per your engine mounting bolts, which they replace.

Ok I've got a manual for a 2008 model where as mine is 2013 with the torque spec of 45nm, plus it has a lube symbol "LS"
Would there have been any significant change between the two different model years, enough to change the torque spec?
Cheers
