Proof positive that MCE stands in front of, alongside, and behind their product.
Thanks Ryan
I could have used your cages about 30 minutes ago.
Pulled into the driveway, Kicked out the side stand ( at least I thought I did ), and started to lean the bike over.
And over she went--slowly and painfully. Scratched the left mirror, the heat deflector, and the lower cowling a little. Even got a little scratch on the left side fairing.
Just a warning for you guys that might not already know--when this heavy beotch starts going over there ain't much you're gonna do to stop her. And I'm a pretty strong guy.
And yeah I'm kinda pissed about it. I can't remember ever dropping a bike just trying to park.
Funny how easy it was to pick back up. I did say I was pissed didn't I ?
Canyon Cages--good. Laying bike down on grass--not too bad. Laying bike down on concrete driveway--very bad.
It will probably be funny tomorrow. Or maybe in a week or two. Dadgummit.
Thanks Ryan. Been looking at getting some of your Canyon Cages since I bought the bike.
Would have been a lot better story to tell about how the Cages protected all my shiny plastic. I guess I'll be looking to take a few pieces to the bodyshop to be repainted and a few pieces will get replaced.
Expect an order soon. Procrastination will get you every time. I can almost laugh about it now. Not quite--but almost.
Check out the photo below. This was a guy who recently ordered some replacement pieces after a crash on a track with our guards installed.

That is an incredible photo
Isn't it, though?! I thought the same thing when I first saw it. Whoever the photographer was certainly did a great job.
After a zillion clicks so you can see it at a decent size, you realize it is a gen 2, and there are droplets of water spraying all over. And it looks like the bike is sliding on the rear bags bar, totally protecting the muffler. I bet *HE* is glad he left the rear bars on when he took the bags off
The photo was originally small on your screen? That's strange. Is it like that for everyone else? It appears as a relatively large-sized photo on mine. I uploaded the large original that was sent to me on Photobucket and used that to link the photo in the post. Not sure why it showed up so small for you. The fact that you can see the water droplets being thrown up by the front tire (I assume by the front tire) is incredible and the rear guards are indeed in contact with the ground. However, the front tire and Canyon Cage is actually off the ground in the photo. I'm still amazed someone managed to capture the moment.
