what do you consider "hardcore stunting" exactly? because i know of a few guys doing circle combos, jump to spreaders from a stop, rolling endos, drifting, etc. on the 06/07 gsxrs and none of them have had frame problems that I know of.

i'm still learning the basics myself but i definately still crash a lot, and again, no problems.

 

dont scrape out on the subframe and youll be fine...my bro has a 06 636 and my 06 gsxr feels almost identical...but to each his own...any newer bike is gonna be weak for stunting,they arent designed for that ,they are designed to be light as **** for tracks and so on...as far as carnage,i ride the **** out of both my 06 gsxr s and so far no frame issues..but i do rock a steel subframe on my lot 06...

 

I probably mean more like hardcore failures. Not stunting, persay. It's the drops that hurt. I just hear a lot of negative feedback about GSXRs, not sure if it's biased hearsay or what.

Thanks for the feedbacks Alicia, loogie.

I plan on armoring the hell out of this ride. aftermarket subframe, or at least a subcage and such.

 

I have 3 powers cages instock for 06-08 gsxr 600/750, one of them is blue. The 2 black ones $220 shipped for the blue one $250 shipped. I know, I know they are powers, but i do have them if needed. call my shop at 717-718-1914 or message me here. thanks chris

 

I was on here earlier bragging about my 905 cage before i beat it up enough...

I was out practicing last night and i scraped the 12 bar and jumped off right before it pancaked onto the left side of the bike. only dropped the bike 3 times on the same side.

It bent the cage upward ( from rolling forward and pancaking at the same time.)
So it bent at the front engine mount and bent the whole cage with it. and its binding a little bit on the bottom cross bar..

SO OVER ALL IT PUSHED THE CAGE UP ABOUT AN 1"-2".

looks like ill be trying out a different cage brand after this one gets fully mangled, or give aaron of 905 racing a challange to fix it..

Looks Like they should of beefed up the steel on the cage mounts...

So has this happened to your 905 cages???

 

That sucks bro.

 

i have a powers cage on my 08 gsxr 600.. i havent had any problems with it and i have dropped it super hard! and i havent had any problems with my gixxer except i broke the 2 bottom mounts off the subframe last weekend... im trying to find someone thats makes subframes... After seeing the impaktek cages makes me want to get one...

 

So how did you manage to break off the two bottom mounts....

well looks like im going to order a powers and have it as a back up just cause i know that my 905 is guarantied so can sent it in later when its fully mangled but ill end up switching to powers, so by the time it comes ill be needing it to throw on.

 

How can I reach this impaktech ? I can't log on myspace.
I can be reached on snakes_lover@hotmail.com.
I'm from Rotterdam in The Netherlands, dunnow if that can be a problem?

thnx

 

thats cause all they use is thick washers welded to the main mounts. And the worst part is i see more than one cage company doing this. thats y i use 1and 1/4in solid steel inserts in my cages and drill them out. that way the cage cant twist away from the mounts. when you sit back and look at any cage you can find all kinds isues with them. you just gota no what your looking for.

 

Ya i noticed the thick washer that they welded to the tube to cap it off for a main mount. poor design.

So when you used the 1-1/4" insert, did you fabricate it on a lathe or did you buy it? have any pics of it? was it also on a 905 cage that you did this to?

cause now you gave me an idea to do that but now will have to go and buy longer engine mount bolts....

 

No man i make my own cages i made about 6 different designs so far and iv come up with one that is :YEAH. It looks good and is just the ****. you can drop it with out sliders and the cage wont dig or role up on the bars. Plus it is strong as hell. Ill have a link and pics up on hear in a month or so im in the process of making them and selling them. But I dont want to be like some people i have seen and start selling stuff i dont have And about the 1-1/4 steel incerts i have a 20ft stick of it and just cut and weld what i need. If you can weld i can sell you couple of them to shove in your cage to make do? Which 905 you got the new or old?

 

man, 905's are the ****! I had one on my old school 9 hundo and I stunted the hell out of that thing and never had any issues with that cage!

 

your so full of ****. the front tire never left the ground once the cage went on.

 

LOL!!!!!! thats because you let some squid ride your bike into the back of a truck and everyone else wanted to sit around and beat off to HALO2 and get stoned!

I dont know whos the bigger squid... you for not wanting to get your little fingers cold on the ride home, or the retard that crashed it.

 

ha ha ha you cant just talk **** to me! last i remember was every one crashed there **** that day. So kiss my *** Squid. Thats the day i passed your **** up in the game and i still leave your *** behind.

 

what? you rode a minty 954 out there with spray painted fairings, didnt ride and "passed my **** up in the game"? how so?

 

Shut up Squid. your just hatin cause i got RL Os and HC Os and your still stuck on training wheels. Just ask any one on this site WHOS THE #1 SQUID. And the answer is YSRRider ha ha ha

 

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HA HA HA H HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!

GAY CLOWN aint got ****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! keep talkin **** and your cage is gonna look like every other part on my bike!

 

**** off i will kill you if you make my **** (man loving pink). only you can rock the O so gay ***** pumping pink.
