905 cages are junk - Page 3 - Stunt Discussion

SCOTT_Chychul · 05-04-2008, 12:56 PM

Im no engineering expert, but a cage or anything really is only as strong as its weakest link. I broke a BRAN NEW 905 cage on the 1ST crash, so bad that i couldnt even get the cage off i had to cut it off. Its got huge ass bulky side pieces but the bar that goes across the bottom is thin ass and actually has a section cut out of it. Bike went down doing a circle, lowside and hit that bottom corner of the cage just right that it pushed the one side in, bent the fuck out of that cross bar on the bottom and pushed the cage out on the other side of the bike. never going to rock a 905 again.

I got a New 905 cage for an 03-04 636 that has been dropped 2 or 3 times and bent slightly cuz one of my own front motor mount bolts was stripped n came off. Cage will still mount up fine.

Price: FREE... and you pay for shipping.. pm if interested

Break the shit out of every cage on the market?

I don't know if you missed my post, or the thousands of other posts on this forum.. But 905 is KNOWN for failing on small drops! Sometimes it'll hold up, thne again sometimes it snaps on tip overs.
Not to mention bashing your knees..

Why in the world, would you listen to hundreds of people that ride better then you, that all say 905 is junk, and SI is the shit, then you're gonna go and get a 905?

You sir, are a fucking idiot.

But we all knew that before you even opened your mouth.. No helmet doing power wheelies on a quad

Go huff more gold paint

You know what your right there has been a million posts about how shitty their products are. And Frankly thats everyones expierence. Like I said its your own personal preferance. People say that their shit has broken brand new first drop well I have wrecked at 85 mph and my shit still held up. So you pick your own preferance. I will stick to my company and you will stick to yours im not trying to change your opinion and your not changing myne So you sir are a fucking idiot you cant change everyones opinion just cause of shit you read on the internet. Im not saying there hasnt been cage failures in the past. That was noted and corrected from 905.

And honestly a gay helmet comment about doing a power quad wheelie..... That was weak

Ryan no disrespect bro ,you are the man in my book:YEAH ,but I have purchased just about every cage out there ,and from my personal experience("cause I still chunk my shiot across tha lot occasionally" ) the 905 cage was my first ,and it did protect the engine,but it broke very easily The s.i. cage takes way more abuse than any other cage ,not just 905,but f.i.&,powers 2.......just my personal opinion

the thing is......905 replaces their cages if they break!!!! FOR FREE. aaron is a stand up guy who bends over backwards for riders, it just pisses me off when threads like these are posted....the title stands out and hurts a company that is helping riders every damn day. a cage is designed for tip overs, if you plan on throwing your bike into misc walls, wrap it in bubble wrap.

every cage will bust eventually but......

first cage i ever had was a 905 and on my FIRST drop to the side it broke my whole engine casingh and cost me 2500$ in repairs so fuck 905!!!!!!!!

www.tygersharkcages.com and im not sponsored

Ryan S · 05-05-2008, 10:28 AM

yes, i'm sponsored by them....they have bent over BACKWARDS to help me through the years and i've sent countless people their way....they treat me good.....any cage will break if you slam your bike repeatedly into the ground, knock your own riding before you slam a good company on the net....that shit's wack bro.

I have to laugh! LOL

I blame suzuki for makin junk cast frames on their new bikes, and myself for being such a squid...LOL, NOT the cage!
If I wouldv'e not ben riding with the slider pushed inside the cage after the first wreck, it may have had some give to it, but who stops riding after one crash??

FI let me down and that is all. Everyone has their reason to get whatever cage they are running... like, I wanted a SI, but they didn't make them for my bike at the time, and I got a good deal on my fi from a local pro rider who is a dealer too.

NOW....
I'm buying a SI cuz they finally are makin them for my bike, and I'm possibly buying a new frame too!! haha

I dont' like the design of all the force coming down on one slider stickin out... I like the design of it landing on several contact points instead....

IT's pretty easy with FI.. if you want to spend your money more than once, never crash, or they are giving you free cages after they bust, then go for it... otherwise don't count on ANY cage to make up for your skills.

I didn't.

And I dont't understand why everyone is trying to take it personally if their shit breaks...?? I mean, why are you stunting if you didn't expect your shit to break?? I expect every time to wreck at least once, or I don't feel like I'm pushing myself at all?

all my 905 stuff works for me? I can't say for the cages though, but I love their round bar... I have to agree with Ryan here.. lame thread.
