I need to get another cage. I owned a FI cage and it got wadded up on a 12 drop. It broke a lot of stuff on my bike from just that one fall. The cage, magneto case, subframe tab, and frame tabs broke.

What is the best cage out there for a 02' gsxr>???????????????????

 

well if the F.I didnt work out for you go w/ the 905 cages.

 

ive never tried the fi cage but the 905 cage is the only reason my bike still runs, i wish i had video of some of the falls its taken, almost all the times it hasn't broken anything when i swore a clipon or somethin would be trashed.
and my bike is an 02gixxer

 

are we aloud 2 talk about home made cages?

 

Just don't drop your bike Sammy, lol. If you go with 905, first thing you need to do is cut that crappy bar that goes between the headers and your oilfilter off. That was the stupidest thing I've seen in my life.

 

uhhhhh, that has to be there for the cage to work right

 

yo buna, what happened??? i have yet to have a single problem with my 905!

 

that's a good point but on gixxer 1000's you have to make a choice. If you leave that bar, it will smash your oil line during a crash, if you cut it, the cage flexes and smashes your case covers.

Alot of the guys with 1000's up here are having that problem with them, still busting cases witha 905 cause it flexs....the ones that leave that bar in the middle, usually break their oil fitting when you drop it on the left side.

and ya, a lot of FI cage problems are due to the fact that people don't constantly tighten up the bolts. i made that stupid mistake also. every time i ride the bike i tighten up my cage bolts right before and i don't have any problems now. before i just ran no matter what, and when the bolts loosen, it'll cause damage, same with any cage, it has to be all tightened to work properly.

Me and scott haven't had that problem, or anyone else i know that rocks a 905?!?!

just be careful when putting it on the bike to leave a little bit of clearance.

 

I have now broken 2 Racing 905 cages. No clue why they break, but they do break on the right side rear mount. Any Ideas why they break there?

 

have no idea??? u installed it correctly? or did u ghetto rigg sum stuff.... i've only layed it down on the left side before so im not sure.

 

Yeah it was installed correctly, and Aaron made this cage for the 98-99 900rr. I am gonna get in touch with him. Get this taken care of.

 

first off, ive NEVER seen a 905 break! that is weird you broke two! I KNOW that Aaron will take care of you if you give him a call, He is awesome when it comes to his customers! UNBELIEVABLE SERVICE!!!

 

POWERS!!!! new design is hot as hell, and pretty much unbreakable .... they are the best to deal with, and cover their workmanship 100%!!!!!!!!!

 

stunt discussion should turn into - battle of the cages!

 

DAMNIT SAMBO! I know you didn't just ask this question on stuntlife!!!

good ol "dad" had the 905 cage on his 1k. It took a beating like no other. That bar that runs through the middle mashed up against his oil filter.. it didnt mess up the oil cooler at all... not that you have to worry about that anyways since you have teh "taco ingenuity" oil cooler... hahaha..

 

I GOTTA AGREE the powers seem to be unbreakable
i got two cages one old style one new design
love the cages
pm me and ill get you a price on it

 

does powers have a website??? cuz i cant find it

 

POWERS... :YEAH
i pitched my bike like a week ago like it was my job.
it paid for itself the first time it hit the ground. just picked the bike
back up and kept going. their cages are worth every penny...my

peace
