Crash cage hype
I'm thinking about mounting a crash cage on my 99rr but i have seen one before and they did'nt look like they would hold up for very long. Who has one? are they worth the 275 bucks? or should I make my own?
. F*cking gansta style

Check out Racing905's ****, Their cages hold up through anything! 2 wks ago my friend looped a 2nd gear stand-up, flipped the bitch 4 times. Only had a broken windscreen/upper and bent peg....
I had an FI cage, the first time i went down it bent in cracked my stator cover. So i took off the cage and just left on the Ext'd sliders. they ended up ripping all my threads out of my motor mounts

All i know is today we were at the old parking lot practicing with HD and BigBalla. Kieth (PawPaw) was bustin out some 12's and stuff and slammed his cage he made for his 929 and all it did was bend in about a quarter inch. and one crash busted up the pavement. 
i on the other hand don't have one for my zx9 but im sure we will figure somthin out.

my FI cage died when i wrecked a horrible 12. it's held up about 10 or more 12 crashes, but that one the bike jumped into the air and flipped and slammed strait onto the right side.
The grade 8 bolt pulled the treads out of my motor mount but oh well, i bolted it back on. It would have been WAY worse if i wouldn't have had taht cage.
