Could have something to do with it. Different size pipes and bends than stock.

Powers on my 636 dented both headers on the right side without even dropping the bike, its too close. And I can see it not even fitting with an aftermarket header.

Doesnt matter though cause every time you drop it on the left side its going to crack your oil pan I would have been better off with out a cage at all then that POS!

I speaking about the original cage for the 636, I read that the new ones way better and from the pics ive seen it looks to be true. I just dont know if I'll even give them any more of my money unless I get some kind of discount. Do you have any idea what a mess a broken oil pan makes at the spot?

if you have a gsxr, yes the aftermarket headers will be in the way. our cages for that bike were designed with a yosh full system so i know ours fit. you can check out our site. www.mxdcages.com

225 for the stunt and 125 for the street cage. i would also bet that our street cage holds up better than any other stunt cage too.
