hey guys im bout to guy a cage for my 929. ive just about narrowed it down to the 905/mdx style cage...only thing is im about 6'4 and i heard that the 905 cage will beat up your shins...what about the mdx cage, does it beat you up

 

i heard that they have redone the mxd for the 929 but the original ones were horrible. my

powers for the 929

but i have a mxd on my f4i and it is the best for the f4i :YEAH

 

My shins never hit unless I'm doing stoppies, they're tapered on the top and the bottom, also if you didn't know the MXD won't hit until you're basically lowsiding on a stock bike, I've tried to at low speeds unsucessfully several times.

 

i have a 905 and ive never hit my shins. now, when your fee are down like if you need to stop, it feels really bulk like you'd hit it but once your riding your not near it at all.

 

Go to mxdcages.com

they have some pics for honda's/ no pic of 929 but they do have one of a 954 which it should mount up very similar.

 

Also - I'm 6'2'' and my 905 on my gixxer wich is very much the same as the 929 for the 905 cage and I have never hit my shins - well except for the first few days since your not used to anything being there.

 

IM 6'3'' and i got a mxd on my f4 never hit my shins...

 

I hit my left shin a little bit on the mxd. Mostly when im gonna shift

 

heres the solution...go to walmart pickup one of those wet noodles the toy for the pool the realy long foam thing...cut a sction out, zip tie it around your cage and you will never again hurt your shins....if anyone was at stuntfest you may have seen mine...the bright green one on the red 929...

 

could just wear knee/shin gaurds. problem solved. my

 

The GSXR is much different than the 929/954. It simply has much more room where it bolts up. I've built a cage for a 954 and a GSXR1000. Being 6'4", you're at a disadvantage. I hit my shins (6'4" also), but my bro (6') fits fine on my 954. You figure out how to get around it though. It's not that big of a deal, just an adjustment.

 

I hit my shins on my MXD cage on my 929 ALLL THEEEEEE TIME!!! You won't notice the MXD is there when you are doin wheelies or even no handed lock to lock circles b/c it has excellent ground clearance but damn, the second I sit down it hits right below my knees everytime and I'm only 5'10

 

since he hasnt bought a cage yet, he could buy a mxd cage.

i have a mxd cage and im very hapy with it.

 

yes the Mxd on the f4i is great but the 929 it is garbage

 

well i started looking at both the 905 and the mxd cages and they look about the same. i really cant tell a differance..anyone have a preferance on one

 

I wouldn't know. I ordered an MXD cage and Jeff told me it was in the mail. Still no cage and ever since he took my money, he won't email me back.

JEFF, IF YOU READ THIS, PLEASE GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK!!!!! I DON'T WANT YOUR CAGE ANYMORE. IF YOU PUT IT IN THE MAIL LIKE YOU TOLD ME AND TONY, THEN I'D HAVE GOTTEN IT BY NOW.

 

The MXD is tig welded and made from thicker wall material

 

this thread is made from thicker '05 steel

 

.....

 

Why do the shins hurt so damn much when you hit them or get kicked?
