The all thread thru the frame looks like its been replaced with bolts. No wonder your engine case broke! Doesnt look like a tru FI cage mount and install to me?!?!?! Im just sayin! \r\n \r\n | \r\n

Everything stays tight, I\'ve rode with this cage all this year/season and no problems. The cage is straight, just didn\'t protect my engine in this fall. It was a bit of an awkward fall, but it cracked the hell outta my stator and took a chunk out my engine
! Itr makes me sad and upset!

Although I don\'t think I\'ve seen a busted stator on an f4i before cuz the hoop doesn\'t sit over the stator on those bikes... \r\n \r\n | \r\n

No broken bolts. Wish i recorded it to see exactly what happened. I think I\'m going to make my own, Or weld on this one for better protection

\nI made the mistake of running FI back in the day when we got sponsored with ST - I kept it tight - but it still allowed too many broken parts and multiple stripped motor mounts. It\'s an archaic design that has been surpassed by many of the newer cage companies. The writing has been on the proverbial wall for years - there is a plethora of threads on Stuntlife describing identical issues. \r\n \r\n | \r\n

They should really go back to the drawing board
