Cage selection Help me choose!
Hey guys i have an 06 Gsxr 1000 i unfortunaley let someone else ride it and he deystroyed it. The all mighty frame sliders caused the worst damage on the bike. They bent back and sheered off the frame around the slider where the base of the slider is in the frame. I have been working on putting her all back together, Even getting the frame welded in that spot. The bike is just my daily ride, im not really big in stunting yet but plan on purchasing a stuntbike when i get the funds (when i finsh this bike completly). I love to still take my corners so im looking for a cage thats not to big and bulky. I was looking at the FI cage but i have heard that they hve been causing frame damage aswell on certain bikes. I am certainly not looking to have to do a full break-down on the bike a second time to repair the frame. I am also not looking to have to have to cut the plastics but will if i have too. If anyone could help i would appricate it.

Hey.....that sux *** sorry to hear your shitty luck....I have a good drivers seat with a small scuff and a set of leavers, and stock winsheild if you need it. I have a 06 B&W was down slow speed and got it for 6600. but make sure after you get it back together it didn't tweek a fork tube "you will know by it pulling or drifting to one side" My roomate and bud both have 05 and one of them had a endo slide out minor at first but the fork leg wasn't. I had to do the clipon and it bent the lock tab on the bottom tripple and stator cover, tap the frame bolt that was gone and the peg assembly...not to bad but the tank fairing front and tail all have rash but I DON"T care its drive able.
Here it is as work in progress.........

Ian's regular cages can corner pretty well and if you want to get even lower in the corners he makes the race rails which are absolutely pimp for street and race bikes.

Re: Cage selection Help me choose!
sounds like it will be a fixer and don't let anyone even sit on it. People don't realize there power and I just laugh when asked to take it for a Spin...worse is when a douch is sitting on it when you come out from work. I was a bit pissed about that... no respect for the throttle is what it is. I hope he got really fucked up...that would be ...

freestyle ingen bla bla........every single cage on the market has flaws. there is NO perfect cage.
any cage that people boast about on here is either a bandwagon situation, a sponsorship, or theyve just had the luck of the draw and zero bad experiences with that particular cage.
it does what its supposed to and protects your bike. if you pancake your **** once and the cage breaks in a million pieces but your bike is fine then it payed for itself right there.
fi: rolls onto the bars and tank, bottom loop gets stuck on your tailgate/ramp
flexes a little too much sometimes and can bust stator covers but hey all the pros use em so they must be good right?
si: quite possibly the only cage that does not come with sliders? why? nobody knows, but neither do we know why we are here. bulletproof design as long as your tools dont get eternally trapped inside
905: they bend and break
tygershark: if u wanna spend 315 dollars on a bunch of steel thats cool i guess. spring loaded sliders absorb impact like a champ though and their multiple strut design is pretty sturdy, also no bottom loop to worry about.
mxd: dont get me started
powers: hmm i dunno about those
