Caged up

[Rufstuf]

Fitted it today after giving the main frame a quick lick of white hammerite. Was a total baisterd to fit myself, had to eventually take the front seats out and fight with it for two hours to get the cage to marry up to the cross members. But after a lot of cursing it finally all fitted together and I am more than happy with the results. This is how 172 cups should've came from the factory imo. Big thanks to Buffalo for sellin' me the cage

Whats it like to drive now?

I dont know if it's just my imagination, but it feels more rigid / planted. Could be the 20-odd kilo extra I now have in the back lol

Good stuff Mark, cages are always a good move! Especially with your brakes

Would be lighter if you removed that useless isofix bar from the rear.

The whole point of the cage is so Mark can chain the bikes to it. What did you think it was for!?
