you are going to face the facts if you own a bike and plan on riding it, theres always the possibility that you are going to crash and theres no guarantee that you will save the bike no matter if you have frame sliders or a cage on it
most commonly, stunters have cages.
also, whats the chances that the bike goes sliding down the road/dirt the wrong way and the cage digs in just the right way and cases your bike to flip end oaver end???
remember anything is possible with a bike, once you're off its out of your hands

Honestly, i've always seen the cages more for controlled environment, and low speed stunting. If your just stunting on the streets then your speeds are higher and theres more shit for you to hit, making the cage useless in the event that the bike slides into a telephone pole or a car.
