sick innovations cage
Let me say, I love this cage and have never had a problem, Until recently. Not bashing the cages at all and it has done its just repeatedly. Just sucks, the other day i was doing fast ss circles and fell rather hard. I went to tighten the right motor mount bolt when i found out it wouldn't tighten at all. I figured that I had just stripped it out but after further inspection, I cracked the entire top half of the inside of the motor mount bolt. I believe I'm going to have to drop the motor, get it re-welded on and then throw a glob on it and re-tap it. I was just curious, has anyone had this happend to them before ? I'm sure my motor mount was already fucked up, so i don't believe it was the cages fault, just kind of wanted some input on how to fix it from people on here ...Just wanted to clarify IM NOT BASHING SICK INNOVATIONS

Re: sick innovations cage
yeah Ive had that same thing happen on my 905 cage , Im begining a full stunt prep on an 04 636 and I was thinking of going with an SI cage tho. Its not the cage its the stress a cage puts on the mounts and frame from dropping the bike with extra weight and such.

Re: sick innovations cage
dude I just spent HOURS!!! getting my right motor mount bolt off.The nut was stripped and the bolt wouldn't come out for shi t.It was bent too.Had to remove the radiator and use a carbide bit to grind the nut till it fell apart.and hammer it out through the inside.Had to drill the nout and everything.Never seen one stuck like mine before.I was ready to hold the bike on the limiter untill it blew up, thats how pissed I was getting
You have to keep the bolts tight. Gotta stay on top of that.
