| Does it come with an ejection button as well? 
Seems like getting in and out of that thing could be tough. Plus I wouldn't want to go down and have an arm or leg caught in between the road and the bars. | |

| I wonder if it's as much of a danger is it is in protecting. If you go down, that's that much more to catch on something and flip you around. I don't know..just can't get used to the looks. I can imagine the finger pointing as you ride down the road "Look! What the hell's that!". Plus..sure makes it look top-heavy and rear-end heavy for handling. A trailer only puts 20 lbs or so of tongue weight on the rear. | |

To each his own I guess. Looks like a death trap to me. Considering the bike to car weight ratio your still going to get fired like a pin ball if a car hits you. And if you go down, not sure if you could get away from the bike.
I'm thinking if you want the wind in your face but your that nervous about riding, get rid of the bike and just drive the standard 4 wheel rag top cage. | |

| Thats gotta be the goofiest lookin thing I'd ever seen. I have to agree with some of the other posters, it looks like it would do more harm than good...I mean really, we call people in cars "cagers" do we want to become what we dislike about that form of transportation ?? | |

| There was an ol boy that used to show up for all the big organized rides in San Diego that had his whole bike caged. Had to open a little door to get in/on it. IIRC he even had a plexiglass wind screen that bolted around it. He was going to make motorcycles safe for the masses. I wonder what ever happened to him! | |

| He probably dumped the bike, jaws of life were called, and they were unable to get him out, they were unsuccessful......  | |
