Did you read the rule changes?? Cages, collars, helmets, etc only provide safety for the DRIVER of that car. It does NOTHING for the guy in the other lane. The rule changes that the op posted were about safety to the driver of the Demon or whatever. So I ask again, how does the cage keep the fat wallet punk kid from crossing into your lane??? It doesn't. It's about the safety of the driver of the Demon. So I say again "street bikes have been making passes with roll cages for years".
- Now, if you want to discuss experience of drivers, then that would be a different thread.
