I have Just finished the Cage and am moving on to the Round bar and the Tail Saver.
Here are some Pics of what I've done So far,, Can't wait till its finished so i can drop this bitch and see how it holds,,,
let me know what you think ?

 

Cool, better then nothin

 

The top of the cage might need to stick out more if you dont want it rolling onto the tank

 

yeah as soon as you drop that it will roll on its nosecone Need to make the centre one stick out a bit more.
Tank dent looks sweet

 

I did think that the bike might roll on its tank and so we brought the top bend further out and also i wil have sliders going at the end of the mounts so they wil stick out further.
The cage is high up as it is only 3" away from my knee when im sitting on the bike, also i droped the Bike in the garage to test it and see if it rolls but i did not budge, I guess i wil have to wait and see what happens when i drope it at 15 mph..

Here are some more Pics:

And Thanks for the comments..

 

looks like your be preped and ready for 2010.what clipons you running?

 

Fair play to ya mate at least you givin it a go !

They look like Harris clipons, thats what I ran on my F4i. they good ****

 

I can't wait till i get it on the road mate,, They are Harris Clipons, its off Bower's F4i. i will be looking in to designing my own handle bars and custome making them but for now these wil do.


Money is a bit tight and i couldn't afford £300 for a cage so i decided to do my own as i had tube left from my Buggy project,,, plus My father in-law who does the welding don't charge me sooo

 

looks good mate ,with the sliders it may help to stop it goin onto tank ,the only thing im thinkin is the 3mm cross supports may tweak/twist especially if it hits hard on the bar going near to leg,id have probly just notched some tube to go in there ,and probly gussets to just too make sure ,but im overkill usually ,just think its better to go more than less,but it may be fine ,hard to say really, like you said ,just have to test it out and go from there

 

well done dude cage and tank look good

 

Ok, some new Pics with new Updates,,, Did take notes on the cage needing to be further out?















Ohhh,,, I did look at turning the round bar in to a SYSY bar,,,,

 

Nice work mate looks like it will do the job just fine!!

 

when you drop it, will you be able to pick it up?

 

Holy **** thats a lot of cage hope it works and doesn't break one of ur legs

 

I will just have to see!!! it looks alot heavier than it actually is but as i have removed some parts off the bike it may work a little bit heavier than the standard...

 

Just some new Pics of the progress, let me know what you think,,,

 

It looks like Mad Max's bike now...

Just kidding dude, looks good and it's always cool to see someone making their own parts like stunt riders used to before all the companies that are available for parts now.

 

Thanks dude,,,

 

What kind of pipe did you use? Looks like a lot of it and aweful thin. Your upper mount is only a fairing spot. Hope it holds up for ya.
