So as some of you know I've been having trouble finding a cage for my 93 zx6. So the guy I'm having paint my bike suggested just doing sliders.

He said he could get 'em so they would protect the engine covers and engine.

Is that a good idea? What levels of protection to cages and sliders give (ie frame engine plastics)...

 

Try and find someone to fabricate a custom cage.. Even with a manufactured cage you can still bust plastics. Sliders are to help save you from minor scratches if the bike is to tip over at a standstill.

 

maybe see if they have heavy duty clutch casing and stator covers for that model

that would at least help

 

sliders are out..Racerails are in

 

i used mongoose bicycle pegs for the longest time and they worked great u can get them at walmart for like $10

 

best bet is to find someone that knows how to weld and bend metal....

 

powers race railz are the ****....................................

 

hell yea i gat pegs on mine **** sliders when u have cheap pegs:YEAH

 

do yo find that with the pegs only havin 1 mounting point it can crack the mount on the frame when layed over???????????

Lake.

 

thats what i have fear off but i guess the real frame sliders have only 1 too,thats why the cages are better they have more mounting points so its harder for them to break when theres a lot of em

 

LISTEN if your getting a sick paint job... Then you need race rails... cages are big and bulky... rails are sleek and sexy... Need I say more? If your not getting a sick paint job then get a cage... goto any machine shop... they can do it

 

so no 905 cage?..its better for rails or what..they work just as good?

 

if you seen a set of railz and seen the design behind them you would never look at sliders again.

 

Definitely get the rails........sliders just bend and are basically for looks, they wont protect anything over 3MPH. JUst hope that it only tips over in the garage if you've got sliders.

 

I want teh power railz for my 6rr, problem is they dont mount in the same place as my sliders do, so I'd have to cut another slot into the fairing, and then I'd still have 2 holes from the regular sliders... but the power railz is what I've been looking at, unless I can get another set of fairings I'm stuck..

 

905 cage or rails...?

 

No 905, go with powers it's the only way!!!!!!!

 

whats powers...where do i find em...is that short for something..lol...?????

 

o o ...stuntworx...hey so whats the difference..these are lighter than 905 cages or what makes them better..../?

 

what kind of zx6 is it? zx6r or zx6d or e..... If it is a zx6e i have a bike laying around that My buddy could make you a cage and make sure it fits on this bike first.......let me know
