Im going to put a cage, subcage, and sliders on the rear axle of my 636 this winter.
Im thinking about taking the front fairing off and puttin a Z1000 headlight on.

Thinking that for a subcage and sliders...

tygershark cages are nice, the apex cage is decent, the triple bar cage is kinda overkill.... all their cages are fucking expensive though
Sick Innovations also has a nice cage, low profile and tough, and not as pricey

Im liking the lifetime warrenty though....

yea, that is true.
pretty much just go with what you feel like. youre gunna find someone whos a nutswinger for every brand out there. just try em out and see what works for you.

on the warranty note, i have heard of someone having to get the warranty done cuz they cracked the cage and there was no argument about it. cage was fixed for free.

anyone know how difficult hooking up the z1000 headlight will be?
or how hard it will be to tuck all the wires?

allright we both know how rediculously hard it was to put in your integrated so i'm guessing it will be close to as hard as that was. and the wires wont be a problem those are easy to hide

why in the world are you puttin a z1000 headlight on your 636? never seen that before.
oh about the cages, if you can afford it, get tygershark
if you want a cage thats damn near as tuff and cheaper get sick innovations, its what i got, good cage.
stunting is for fruitloops anyways....

09-23-2008, 02:23 AM
oh and if your gonna get tygershark, i would suggest the apex. like jace said the 3 bar is kinda overkill in my eyes.

Cage: tygershark or powers IMO
Subcage: OMR or powers IMO

Z1000 headlight because I think the street fighter lights look tacky, and because the gauge's on a z1000 and a 636 are the same shape, so the gauge should fit fine, no zip tie issues like albers.
$325 for the 2-bar...why not spend $20 more and get the 3 bar?
01F4izzy
09-23-2008, 03:37 AM
SHHHIIITTTTTTTTT you think albers is bad you should see my bike, holding on the gauges right now is about a half roll of electric tape and like 100 little zip ties linked together... lol

and powers cages are gaaahhhhbaaagggeeee. they way the mount will break your frame after a couple good drops.

09-23-2008, 09:55 AM
What about powers subcage?
01F4izzy
09-23-2008, 04:02 PM
if you ask ryan fujan (05barbiestunter636) they are great, lol. but if you ask me i say they are too bulky and known to drag on the rear tire when your suspension is compressed hard. they are also a solid peg design, and if your solid peg takes a hard enough hit, it can tweak and bend your subframe, somtimes the subframe will even break where the subcage mounts. sick innovations or omr makes a good subcage.

09-23-2008, 04:14 PM
heres a sick innovations subcage, this one has solid but they also make them in folding if you want this pic is on an f4i but they also make them for your bike:

heres an omr (old man roger) subcage, he is a stunt rider from down in florida that makes these, lots and lots of people ride them and love them, me included. its not too bulky, folding peg, and i got mine on my door step 2 days from when i bought it! if you decide on this and want to know how to get one just let me know:

oh, and what i meant about a powers cage breaking your frame check this out, the way they mount, this little tab right here with enough decent drops will fold into your frame and break it. they give you some little rubber shit to put between the frame and the cage but the rubber shit doesnt stop anything.

ive herd of storys of very bad customer service from them also, but you might be one of the lucky ones that get their product in as little as 2 months. lol. no i dont think it will be that bad, they have just been known for it in the past.
heres a link to a powers subcage for your bike:

I want to learn how to do slow shit. and I realize my bike will start falling apart but hopefully a little slower than without the cages.

whats the point in having a good cage and a bad subcage? lol

I dont recall ever claiming to be a stunter, or saying that I was going to claim to be a stunter. I said I wanted to learn. If I cant and or dont learn then why does it matter if I have cages on my bike or not. By putting cages on my bike Im claiming to be a stunter? There are 4 bikes that look exactly the same as mine, taking off the front fairing and putting on a z1000 headlight will make my bike look different than everyone elses. Even if I never do a wheelie and fall over making a left turn at 25 mph a cage will save damage to my bike. I don't think you have to be a 'stunter' to own cages or to want to make your bike look different than other peoples. I ask for help on who made good cages and I got help. If you want to critisize me for wanting to learn how to stunt save your breathe, I didnt ask for your opinion on my 'stunter' status. If you want to help me learn then I would greatly appreciate it. And jeff, if you want to ask me about it in person I'm in b-dubs quite a bit and will be thursday.

track star baby!
do what you want 06 i was going to buy a cage for slow drops but have no money for it. so my advice do what you want but if you are wanting to stunt. then nut up and go straight for it don't half ass and then back out wasting all that money.
05barbiestunter636
09-25-2008, 05:20 PM
dont get so pissy when we ask what you plan on doing, its just been a certain trend of putting on a cage and alot of guys say they can stunt and cant. I was just asking cause i hate having a cage on my bike cause of looks. I want to have a good looking bike but of course need the cage for the shit i do. I was just giving advice cause i kinda wish i could take back some decisions I made. Stunting takes alot of money and the right mind set to fuck up a perfectly good bike and I would be the one to know that. Just tryin to help bro. If your looking for something to look good that you can still corner and not that big and bulky for looks thats why i bought my cage it does the job and its really sleek and can be turned into frame sliders in 5 min. Its freestyle ingeniuety and has held up through everything i have done. And powers is def. the way to go with subcage. If you need help learning man ill give you all the advice i got cause we have the same bikes and hopefully mine will run soon
good luck and be safe

or if you dont want big and bulky check out the powers race rails.

Off Topic: Thank you for your help and I dont mean to get defensive just seems like people on this site hate on anyone
who is trying to learn. That does not apply to everyone and I appreciate the help I am getting from the site.

well said... except your falsified information about cage and subcage! lol.
oh and 06_636 if you want a little help from a guy who doesnt have the same bike as you... hit me up. lol

09-26-2008, 05:21 PM
oh and one other thing, i know your mind is made up but my bike barrel rolled 4 times, on the second time jumped 3 feet in the air, landed and kept rolling, and nothing on my bike except for my cage was touched. burntz is my witness... and it didnt even mess up my cage that bad, just some rash and the cage is tweaked a little. i honestly dont see any other cage on the market doing that. tygershark is the next best choice tho! sick innovations!!! :twisted:
i think i might be gettin a new cage this winter, and its one that i can guarantee prolly noone else in nebraska has... and its fuckin awesome, its a badass design...

hey biatch shut up! no im not gonna be the one making my new cage, its an actual company, cept noone really knows about them... and man fool what evidence do you have of your shit workin cept a few rolling burnout drops!
i took a look at jordans tygershark today, and it looked like it was built really well... he said hes dropped it a few times also and its not even bent, so you should be set with the whole cage deal, but the subcage is a different story!
and ryan your just jealous that my subcage is sleek and doesnt look like a bunch of 4 inch tubing welded together, and mine wont break my subframe!

just a note about tygershark, I had my cage on backorder for like 2 months, and when i called in to check again they acted like I never put in an order, and said its be another 3 weeks, oh ya and that because they dont have molds out for all bikes yet itd be an extra $70 to add an additional mounting bracket to a cage that wasnt even fitted for my bike. $70 more then their already high ass price. Good cages but i said fuck um and went with Powers stunt works.
