Frame sliders or Engine protection cage?
Frame sliders are a whole lot cheaper than engine protection cage.
Engine protection cage protects a whole lot better than frame sliders.
What do you guys think on this one?
Which one would you chose?

RE: Frame sliders or Engine protection cage?
Depends on your riding style. If you are somewhat crazy and pull a few wheelies here and there... go with a cage. If you are concerned more with taking corners and going to the track, go with frame sliders.
On a side note, frame sliders sucks and probably won't help if you drop the bike at 20+ mph. A cage will hold up the beating well. I just purchased a sick innovation cage and a subcage, it's a no brainer for me.

I prefer silders...i dropped my bike in the garage and didnt touch anything but the slider. If i were stuntin, i would get a cage, but for regular street riding, a cage would pretty much only protect you just as much as sliders.
Overall, very happy with my $20 investment

I have a friend who dropped his bike with a cage going 80mph on the highway, and the bike just slid and had NO damage.
You can't possibly say that a cage and sliders are equivalent... that is the most ridiculous statement I have ever heard.

RE: Frame sliders or Engine protection cage?
cages are ugly, and so are those race rails....
and street riding 90% of the time your bike is going to hit something or flip, so unless you get lucky and the bike slids a cage will protect the front but what about the tail fairing?
Acingteam.....saying someone wrecks a bike @ 80mph and no damage b/c they have a small bar on the front of their bike......we wernt born yesterday...theres no way in hell that is true
only people I know that bought cages were the so called stuners, and from what they have told me they are good for protecting engine and front fairing....and the ones I know also have the 12 O clock bars....
