Truth! I'm starting to wonder if HS even has a bike.... How do we know that he isn't some 13 year old kid messing around on his Dad's computer?:idk: I'll say it again, four crashes, replaced body panels, drove away.:rockwoot:

Hey, unless they interfrer with normal operation, why not? Just so people won't laugh at you? Who'll be laughing when your bikes get knocked over and you pick yours up and ride away?....:lol:

Nor can you unbend it all the time

As for stunt cages, in a high-speed crash they might catch and flip the bike, unless you put sliders on the endpoints of the cage. Suffice it to say, I haven't seen many racers with cages, lol.

I've crashed and tipped over many times, and a simple set of frame sliders, bar-end sliders, and spool sliders was enough to prevent major damage. The pegs helped protect things as well. Most dudes take off their passenger pegs cuz they're "uncool", lol. Of course if I was racing they'd be gone.

Looks good really.

I agree... with all the great detail to your bike I can't believe you have that old busted stock rotor on there... I'm actually disappointed.

Oh no, et tu' Brute'? I didn't respond to the others because I felt that it was beneath me. The type of pads I use tend to leave some black residue on the rotors. My fronts look about the same and they are brand new. If I remember tomorrow, I'll take before and after pics once I clean it. Yeesh.
