That looks pretty cool. I'd ride with that. That's mostly for stunting and Gynmkahana, I'll bet but looks cool. Given what I've heard about the the two point frame sliders on the 14, I'd say this is crash cage is also likely to cause more damage than it prevents. The 14 is too heavy to slide safely on the mounts in the frame. Great for a driveway tip over but bad at speed. Like most aftermarket parts, I'm sure this product comes with a disclaimer of liability for damage to the vehicle caused by use of the product or "improper installation". If Spiegler can't do it right, I would have my doubts that this tiny company does any R&D on specific models. I don't see a pic of a 14 with one of their cages. They probably have not made one yet. Looks cool though.

Rook they have a couple pics of a zx14r with a crash cage. Looks clean.

Knowing my luck I'd crash and get my foot stuck in that thing somehow. Looks cool but I'll pass.

^ that looks very badass. reminds me of a trellis frame like on a Ducati. Bet it weighs at least 6 lbs. I wouldn't get one at this point but maybe in the future.

Before your criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you do criticize them, you're a mile away and have their shoes.

Eh. The hybrid is better than sliders for tip overs. Crash cage would be better for low sides. Most expensive parts are in the center cowl area. Once the sliders dig in and the bike flips, it doesnt matter anymore.
