Re: Best Cage Choise
I hear good about a-town, but I don't like the style, so thats out.
I hear BAD about Tyger shark, but hey they're kinda pricey anyway.
FI cages are just stupid
Powers is a no no
905 is a no no.
Are impaktech light? do they have good leg clearance?
My riding is more like school/work and around, i want to make sure that i can still do mach 10 around turns without catching the cage.
do they work ^?

Re: Best Cage Choise
ya ive ran EVERY cage made since the first ones came out and for a "full stunt cage"(3-4 point) impaktech has taken the most abuse without failure(broken welds/bent tubing) while being lighter than anything ive ever ran(judging by picking it up when installing and unboxing,i didnt measure it on a digi scale,lol)not to mention they are super sleek and tight to the bike for drifting,etc,AND the KKS cage for the 636's will stay fresh drop after drop if you replace the sliders cuz the actual tubes of the cage DONT contact the ground...and im totally not nutswinging cuz im friends with Son cuz honestly its the BEST cage on the market IMO and would run it NO MATTER WHAT

Re: Best Cage Choise
no youre still on bibleblock lol i wasnt logged in when i came in here so i saw your post. youve ran an atown cage? im not knockin impaktech at all they look like a very well made cage, little ugly in my opinion but still look like a good solid piece. just was wondering where you got that strong of an opinion. ps. the hand scale system isnt valid lol
like i said atowns are great but just a little bulky/wide,heavy and overbuilt if you ask me but deff. a great,strong cage for sure,just not my style

Re: Best Cage Choise
Thanks for the info, I did more research and talked to Son Tran and am going to get the Impaktech. Not a huge fan of the dual sliders, but protection is what I am looking for the most.

Re: Best Cage Choise
I'm sure I will. I saw some videos from KrazyKyleStyle on this site and it seemed like everyone had that cage. After watching them drop their bikes with no damage accuring, and getting right back on, firing it up, and doin circle wheelies, Im sure I wont regret it at all. If only I was as good as my bike looks.
, but I thought they had dual? that one doesn't^^

Re: Best Cage Choise
I talked to Son @ Impaktech today and he said they only offer the dual slider now because its stronger and just plain better than the single. That was for the 05-06 636 though, not sure about the other makes and years. Real nice guy, cant wait to get my cage and get it on. Hopefully I dont use it anytime soon

Re: Best Cage Choise
WELL!!!! What are the cons to a 905 cage besides not being able to ride twisties anymore? I had one on my 06 RR, thinking about getting a diff cage after reading this thread about other cages. I get a pretty good deal at 905 though from the people I ride with. I am not concerned about not being able to ride twisties since I have no interest in that, only stunting.
If I decide to go with impatek, atown, or sick what are the prices for an 06 636?

. Let alone how useless is a poll if all the manufactures are not named ?
