[QUOTE="Rocnsanman, post: 1450056, member: 92637"] Dropping a bike and high siding are two completely different scenarios with two completely different outcomes. While cages and such may provide some cosmetic protection to the plastic , high siding will often times require a Homer bucket and a pick up truck to get what's left of the bike home. Most of us that have had the unfortunate luck of dropping a bike and I am one of them, usually worry about that ugly scratch to the mirror or bar end, wanting to return the bike back to it's pristine condition. High side and you won't be concerned with 400 grit wet n dry or color match shake can paint. I've thought of putting frame sliders on for SOME protection but I'd probably end up changing those out as well because they too look crappy. 😅 It doesn't take much nowadays to cause thousands of $$ in damage. Be safe [/QUOTE]
