witch cage do u think is the best for stunting and knee dragin

 

each cage fits different on each bike.

my 905 sticks out pretty far on my f2, I've drug it a couple times in slow corners.

FI cages have the removeable hoop, which isnt a bad idea.

Check out MXD cages, I think they have 'track cages' or somthing along those lines that dont go under the bike.

And I dont know about powers cages

 

i saw the track cages it is ganna be on a F4i the track cage looks to week for 12's
i was thinking of getting a 905 and just taking it on and off but my buddy said its a pain in the ***
just looking for thoughts

 

FI for what you are talking about...10 minutes to remove the loop, at most...

 

powers...it was designed with the help of a road racer..ull drage knee before cage.

 

huh?? i scrape fairings when riding hard, how is a cage NOT gonna scrape? the only one i know of like that is the mxd trackday cage, but that doesnt seem like it would have the strength to protect as much as other cages...

this won't scrape in the twisties?? better twist that wrist a little more! lol

for real though, certain bikes work better with certain cages...and it is good for the industry to have choices...but if you want stunt protection AND the ability to hit the twisties without having to take your entire cage off, then FI sounds like the cage for you..i've run FI and 905...905 is very tough and i had no problems with it at all, great customer service as well. FI is my choice for cages cuz you can hit the twisties...

thazzit from me

 

you need a sillyfab® cage 1.5" .120 hrew tubing that won't drag until you wreck

 

hummmm ... ???

 

why chance dragging knee with a cage? thats not a smart idea. i rode raced for 2 years, and i was dragging everything, and i had my suspension set up sweet!my friend tried ridiing on a track day with a cage and drugg *** and didnt have fun cause he worried about falling and breaking stuff. if you are gonna do twisties, track days, or race.....there should be nothing more than sliders. the cages will keep you from movement on the bike while in corners.

 

come on man, are you serious? that cage will scrape for sure.

check out www.mxdcages.com we make some cages for the daily rider that likes to stunt.


hey teach, why dont you let me send you a track cage to test out, then you can see how they work, instead of just saying they probly dont?

 

what i am saying is i can ride ! drag knee when i want
but i love to stunt and that is my ****
but when i wanna go for a ride with the people who dont stunt i want to be able to take the thing off or at least use the bike for a twisty ride w/o taking it off
sounds like fi is the way to go
thnxs tech

 

yo i just dont think that "track cage" will stand up to the abuse that i am ganna throw on it
it would be blaze if it did but i dont wanna drop loot on some **** that wont hold up like others would that i can just remove
i like the look of the MXD cages just not enof feed back yet on them but thaxs for the pitch

 

i am buying not only a track cage from jeff but also a stunt cage from him...i really like the mxd cages and have seen how they hold up.....the clearance with the track cage is huge....i plan on draggin a knee with mine on..

 

oh yeah jeff i gotta make plans with you to come up there in the next couple weeks and pick those up...

 

i never siad they didint work...i said:

"the only one i know of like that is the mxd trackday cage, but that doesnt seem like it would have the strength to protect as much as other cages... "

meaning, i dont think it will take as much abuse as a stunt only cage....if it did, there wouldnt be a choice between the 2 cages. i think your track cage is a great idea, never tried to take anything away from it.

and if you wanna send me one!!! i'll DEF try it out!

believe me, i think that diff manufacturers are GOOD for the sport and they are good for each other...

 

if you drop it and it doesnt perform, ill let you keep the cage and ill send you your cash back. like you said, i need more feedback

 

you said it doesnt protect as much as other cages. the reason we have 2 diferent kinds is mainly because the track cages dont sell that well because no one has tried them out.

look at the physics of a crash and the impact the cage takes. the fi loop is about 6 ft long, and will give a ton because of the longer length. they use a . 156 wall to make it stronger. now take a .120 wall 2 ft long tube, much shorter and much stronger. (imagine tackling a 7 ft 200 lb guy, then a 5ft 200 lbs guy, the 7ft will go over way easier) the impact hits at a single point that distributes the energy to 2 mounts that are going from the front of the bike to the back of the bike. now on a loop design, the impact is going from one side of the bike, to the other side of the bike, which is why so many people flip the bike onto the top of the tank.

check your pms teach

 

gotcha...pm returned!

 

i've seen the mxd cages and they're the ****. its a good product, no disapointments at all. jeff is also a stand up guy and stands by his ****, if you have a problem he'll take care of you
