although the race rails look cleaner and more sleek, i hear they are flimsy and will snap off. i dont really even think you can compare the railz and the cage. i think the race railz are designed more as a frame slider type of thing. just think though, if you got the race railz you would be like ricksta so maybe you would be draggin knee on the street now lol.

that is the biggest bunch of bs ive ever heard... how the fuck are metal railz bolted securely to your front and rear engine mounts going to snap off?!?!

anywho depends on your riding style...are you a stunter? or do you like twisties?!? if you like twisties i wouldnt plan on riding them with a cage..

1. Race Rails are crap. They offer bairly any protection.

2. Chicks dig the cage.

3. I drop knee all day with a cage.

i like twisties rather than stunting, and my paint job is sorta expensive on the bike and i would like to try and save it as much as i can... so are u saying if i got a cage that it wouldnt be to great on twisties?? i just look at the frame sliders i have on it now and wonder... hrmm this doesnt look like its going to hold much.

Sliders are usually enough, so long as they are no cuts...

Cage, rail or sliders wont help the bike gets flipped in the dirt...
I attached pics of my bike after going down at the track (faster than anywhere on the street). Tank damage is from the bike flipping.
