Anyone have any experience with Powers Stunt Worx Race Railz?
metal bars sticking out of the bike would offer more protection? does metal absorb energy or transfer it? you want stuff sticking out of your bike that shatters and absorbs energy rather than transfer it. racerailz would do more in a slow speed stunter crash, but in a normal street get off or track get off you're going to do nothing but transfer energy to other areas. not something i would put on my street bike.
imo they are great for the stunter that doesn't want an ugly cage. other than that i would stick with sliders.
sliders are meant to save the engine/frame, not the plastics. to save the plastics you need something that won't give in, but if it wont' give in then it will transfer energy to whatever it's connected to (frame/engine).
same principle that f1 cars use when a car hits the wall and blows apart. absorbe energy and save the driver. we are trying to absorbe energy and save the frame/engine.
