I hav never seen one in person or known anyone that uses one but i hear good things
im curious to see how it holds up

[RCS]

they looked good. about 325 to get shipped out from cali. not tooo bad. i think itd be ok with like 2-3 contact points really per side. other then just like FI with 1.
i get it in this week i hope. if not then next. so ill put a couple photos up

[StuntRR]

i know krazykyle swears by his
and alot of other guys say it is hands down the best cage for taking a beating out there
the dual slider and mounts is key for not flipping to the tank i guess

again curious to see how it holds up and ive thought about getting one if i ever get a 636

man this is fuckin brutal. i ordered that cage from him over a month ago now and he's like oh yea i'll send it out in a couple days. so i say ok and wait a bit.then 3 weeks later i call to see whats up, give me a tracking number so i can see were it is. but then he's like oh i didn't send it off yet, i will on monday(a... couple days away at the time). and then still two weeks later (yesterday) i email him asking the tracking number again and he said he didn't send it off till yesterday and tried to say he wanted to make it up to me and put a subcage in there. im thinking why dont you just quit fuckin around, send the cage and done deal.... but fuck what ever. if he's serious about sending a subcage..i'm down.
thats my rant with the impaktech cage.

Seems like a common problem. Awesome product, shit customer support. I wonder how many companies fail to succeed as a result.

Fuck that, I'd never buy from a company that offers that sort of support/service

That's a killer looking cage but I think it would be cheeper to build and then you can add or subtract shit aswell. I know when I built my race rails for my zx10 I couldn't find any the way I wanted it. Good luck hope you get your cage or money back

[brokenstunter]

they arent the only company that builds cages that take FOREVER
stay away from Powers too
pretty common it seems to wait 1-2 months to get cages to Canada, and pretty much any other stunt product out there
unless its from OMR that is!

[RCS]

yea i really can't wait for them to come in i hope this week before wed. because i leave town then. and i'd like to put it on before . and he emailed me back after i talked to him and said he would throw in the subcage for free. so i was like oh okkkkk that'ts not too bad then. i think thats worth the wait.haha
but still not like im in a big hurry for it or anything but still a long time to get in.
i'd say to anyone the cage's are legit and good looking and wicked feed back on them but i'd say super slow services.

Nice bro...the image def looks sicker cause of the custom bike though lol

I think the benefit of impaktech cage is that I don't think they flip on the tank as easy as other brands, as stated by StuntRR.

My tygershark hasn't flipped on the tank yet, but its main peg is 4-5 inches lower than yours. tygershark cages have springs in the sliders though to better dampen the down, which could be important especially with newer frames with all the carbon in them. I think it is overrated though, tygershark was fast shipping though and great customer support..and it looks sick with the extra bar(s). But if mine ever flips to the tank I'll be pissed...

Good buy though man.
