I haven't had any experience with the track cage on other models but if you have 00 - 06 gixxer this is the best design. Did I mention $150 where 905 and freestyle is $250????

Re: What type of cage do you rock?
905,,but its tweaked from a 12 drop on the right so everytime it falls on that side it brakes a footpeg bracket, other than that its protected my motor/bike many times ,,just make sure youre feet are clear when you crash....

Re: What type of cage do you rock?
I used to have a 905 cage with crushed my upper too many times. i switched to a sick cage and haven't had any problems. not to mention it won't bust up your shins as much as the 905.

MXD cage crash test :YEAH
I love how MXD catches the first impact on the bottom of the cage, and then the bike slowly rolls over.
Every time I've seen a bike with a 905 cage tossed from 12 it always rolls straight onto the handlebars. I had several wrecks like this and the handlebars I had on there from 6 months ago were still good.

Same type of wreck, RIGHT onto the handlebars. I'm not trying to disrespect anyones cages I just think MXD are the best on the market.

Watch this video of a orange 99 yzf600r with a sick cage on it. Its dropped repeatedly from 12 and never breaks anything. Same with the 900rr at the end.

MXD on my 636 and its pretty good so far, only complaint is the right side sticks out twice as much as the left side..........And that in my opinion lets it flex even more to the right when its dropped. I plan on shortening that side over the winter to equal the other side...........Then it should be invinsible.

Re: What type of cage do you rock?
mine is home made but i think the 905 or mxd would be good, i've crashed mine a bunch of times but it never shifted or bent. heres an example of the beatign my cage took.

Re: What type of cage do you rock?
Your cage still rolls immediately after the bike is dropped, so you can't say it's designed so that nothing will break. What happens when you practice circles and the bike highsides and rolls all the way over and destroys the upper fairing stay etc.

Re: What type of cage do you rock?
Ive dropped my Srad 100 times last year practicing circles and i have the same upper on mine. Besides like i orginally said, I would rather break a lever or clip on instead of a frame or engine. Frame sliders would also help prevent roll over. Your entitled to your opinion bro.. This is my

i will put up ANY amount of money, that on gsxrs, our street cages will out perform ANY stunt cage on the market. i wouldnt do it on all our street cages, but on gsxrs, our design is flawless. plus its only $150, theres nothing on the market cheaper than that. they come with plastic sliders so the cage wont dig into the ground.
all our cages are TIG welded, also the only company that i have seen to do that. havent seen sick or NW, so i dont know about them, but the other big 3 companies out there, they all MIG & grind down the welds.
i would be willing to sell a gsxr street cage, and if it didnt perform to your expectations, i will send you a stunt cage for free.*
* your expectations need to be reasonable. its not an force field, im working on that though, it will be out sometime next year.
