would u recomend a crash cage?

I a fairly new stunter just learning the wheelies and stoppies and stuff but last year i laid my bike down twice and had to repaint. I wanna get into the stunt scene quickly so would it be a good idea to get a crash cage early now? or wait till i am more advanced

Yes Isd say get one now before you bust a few cases. And if your really good you may knock the crank out of wack. A cage is a smart investment. SLIDERS SUCK I broke mine a screwed my bike up anyway.

get the cage, and if you like your plastics, i recommend you take them off cause you'll smash them up quite a bit while you are learning...it's a fact of life.

I got a cage on my f2 but I can barely take a turn without it scraping. Oh well at least if I drop it I won't break much.

Definately get a cage. For a few hundred bucks, you can save your bike at least once. It saved me already from a flipped endo. I would have definately broken the clutch case. The bike went over on the right side. HARD. NOTHING BROKE

get a cage and take your plastic off,,,,your still gonna mess it up. if your gonna keep the plastic on either get used to it being fu(ked up or buy some spray paint and just make it presentable.

I've got an FI.. I love it.. check E-bay or their acutal website.. bet on paying around 250 US... you can get a 12 bar for around 110.
