Clean bike minus the cage. If you arnt willing to roll into a parking lot, low side the bike for shits and giggles then pick it back up to park it… no need for a cage. I lol every time I see a bike with a cage and zero scratches on it. and BTW life sucks real bad when you dump a bike on a turn in the twisties. they tend to catch and cause the bike to tumble more at speed when they are sliding across the pavement. Good frame sliders might keep your tank, fairing, seat, rear sub frame, gauges, and shit intact when you take a dump. That cage is only really protecting the engine case. ---

Good frame sliders might keep your tank, fairing, seat, rear sub frame, gauges, and shit intact when you take a dump. That cage is only really protecting the engine case. I completely agree, I bought the bike with the cage and have wanted to take it off since. I just need to order bolts to replace the ones in the cage. I’m always afraid of the cage hitting in corners and I really don’t need it since I don’t stunt at all. Also would consider race rails instead of sliders so it disperses the impact over a greater area. Anyone interested in buying this cage let me know I’ve looked on 905’s website and it seems like it will fit mostly any Kawasaki sport bike. I could be wrong since I’m not into stunting. ---

I like the new Z’s that look like an anime spaceship :lol, but the old ones are pretty sweet too. Nakeds ftw. I think I have seen an orange Z a couple weeks ago with a group of riders on Pearse right off rt. 7 pulling a weeeeelie. ---

Nope not me, I like to have my fun on two wheels. Maybe when my balls drop I’ll start picking it up. :rofl ---

Nice dude. Glad you took my comment for what it really was and didnt think I was jabbing fun at you. You are totally right its a hindrance in turns, and can put you on your lid fast if you tuck it and catch the cage mid turn. Keep it on two wheels and rip up some turns, that’s what a real rider should do anyways IMO. Anyone with decent talent can pull up a wheel and hit/hold a balance point… yet someone who can clear a chicken stripe off a tire all season long and stay in one piece truly a skilled rider. ---

I knew where you were coming from man. I was thinking the same way you were as soon as i picked it up. No worries about my panties getting in a bunch I’m really not the sensitive type. ---

Well a basic wheelie is rather easy, but the rest of the tricks performed require the same amount of practice and dedication as being able to lean the bike over, if not more… depending on the stunt. ---
