I personaly think the MXD cages "look" cooler and they also look like they have more ground clearence in the twisties.

no now there's Crash Integrity
very good clearance the way we designed them. but we're still extremely new in terms of making stunt cages, but if anybody wants to check us out and try a cage out we'll cut ya a good deal to get the name out there. :YEAH

Re: Cage etc. on F2
I got a 905 and i love it. I can't break the freakin thing. Its got 3 mounting points so its extra rigid. As far as the brake lines you can buy SS brake lines for a 919. Not sure about the clutch. Definately get a 905. The only thing i don't like about the 905 is that i sometimes rack my shins if i come down hard from a wheekie, or sometimes when i do an endo, but its not that big a deal.

the cage we designed does not mount where the 905 does. i'm tall and have long legs and would rather not have my legs bashed in, thats why i designed my cage which is already crash tested up to 40-50 mph.

Re: Cage etc. on F2
Im short and not to worried about bashin my shin's on the MXD cage i think thats the one im goin with. They also have sliders available which is nice cause ive inspected the 905 and it looks like it'd sure dig into the pavement. But thats just my personal preference
Id like to see pics of the cage your talkin about tribaltalon if you got them. Im curious to where they mount at (and is it on an F2/F3? i cant see anyones bike type anymore for some reason)

not if they have derlin to protect the ends of the cage and keep them from diggin in. FI cages have the option for derlin sliders on then end, the won't dig in with em on.

we just did the f2 and its a sick cage. design is way cleaner than a 905, we use thicker tubing and i promise you wont hit your shins. the 3 mount is nasty and ours come with delrin tips to ensure the cage wont dig into the ground. i havent had one complaint yet and ive been doing this for over a year now. plus we are having a sale right now, 225 shipped.

next week i am going to make 10 stunt cages and see if they sell. if they sell, i will continue making them. keep in mind though, right now Crash Integrity is mostly hardcore offroad bumpers and roll cages, but if there's a market for stunt cages i can build them.

actually fellas i'd go talk to a lawyer, just like i did. the design is NOT F.I. its kind of obvious just looking at it that its not F.I. if you know anything about cages. but hey, if Tim really thinks he has a case, he's more then welcome to contact me, and we can talk about it. fact is though, that the design is patent pending through my company RK detailing and fabrication. *shrugs* not trying to rain on anybody's parade. Yes, you're right i was only going to make one for myself and not sell them, because thats correct, i was going to just imitate somebody elses's cage, but after messing around with the bike, i discovered a different way to support it, and especially now after beating the holy **** out of it, i decided hell, i already sell roll cages and bumpers, why not stunt cages for bikes.
*AND BESIDES, F.I. doesnt even make a cage for f2-f3s!!!
