MC Enterprises Concours Canyon Cage Discussion

[ZZG1400RIDER]

I wonder if anyone is thinking of getting the bars in the rough and having them line x"ed".  I think if my bike ever gets scracthed up I will go flat black.  Since I found a leak from the bike on the left side I am going to nickname my bike the SR-71, since it leaks while parked and likes to go fast.

You can move the pegs wherever you like on the bar so they could potentially be pretty far forward if you really wanted them to be.

Not trying too be to picky here; however, regarding the hwy pegs.  Did you test this for lean angle within the design envelope of the bike? 
Although I didn't mention it in the earlier post about my bars.  It may have been unecessary, but I was concerned about the potential for hard-part contact with the road's surface before the bike's "hero pegs".

The only issue is the fairing angles in towards the front so it's a bit of a weird position having to "wrap" your legs around it so I can definitely see how it'd be a bit awkward for taller folks.

And, btw, I do understand what you "mean" to say in your post's first sentence.

So.... my next question is.... will the canyons clear Ronnie's Highway Pegs??

The bigger question is....Why would you use them with these bars?  Far more mounting choices on these.

Con detti supporti porta pedane avanzate,pure con le guardie A:P messe,se la moto cade a SX la leva del cambio arriva a toccare il suolo e di conseguenza  si rompe,perché rimane fuori sagoma,troppo esposta.

1) Because these are beautiful and those are not.

2) These can be pretty much hidden, those cannot.

3) These are not a radical foot position with your legs spread wide apart, those will be.

One thing is true, these are a hell of a lot more expensive option than those.  So the question remains- if they will co-habitate with the new canyons...  (Really, only Ryan can answer that right now)

"With these substrates brings advanced platforms, even with the guards: P put, if the bike falls SX gear lever touches the ground and therefore it breaks, it remains out of shape, too exposed."

Since I doubt Ryan HAS a pair of Ronnie's pegs, I doubt he would be willing to give a guaranteed answer, but it sure LOOKS to me like they'd work together.

So I had about 12 miles of "Why oh WHY don't I have my canyon bars yet?" riding on hard gravel yesterday...  LOL  I made it but DANG that was some squirreley ****....

Because I already spent 291.00 on them and they work GREAT!

LOL, that is also a valid reason

Try dry sand.  I was thinking the same thing at the time

OK! Price kinda need to know!  I am looking at a cruise control module.

Morning guys! We're working on finishing the bar up, making a few last minute tweaks, and hopefully we'll be doing some preliminary drop testing this afternoon! If we can't get to it today, we'll be doing it tomorrow but either way drop tests are coming soon.

I wonder if anyone is thinking of getting the bars in the rough and having them line x"ed".  I think if my bike ever gets scracthed up I will go flat black.  Since I found a leak from the bike on the left side I am going to nickname my bike the SR-71, since it leaks while parked and likes to go fast.

Someone earlier did mention getting a raw set and having it covered with Rhino Liner which is essentially the same as Line-X, I believe. I thought it sounded like a pretty cool idea, actually.

So.... my next question is.... will the canyons clear Ronnie's Highway Pegs??

Based on the photo you attached, Ronnies Highway pegs should work just fine in accordance with the Canyon Cage although it's a bit difficult to tell for sure as we don't have Ronnie's Pegs here to test. 

OK! Price kinda need to know!  I am looking at a cruise control module.

Unfortunately we won't know final MSRP pricing until the bar is totally done and we've applied all labor and material costs. The Canyon Cages are going to be in the $250-$275 range, though. I really doubt they'll be pricier than $275 and keep in mind a lot of you guys are going to get an extra 5-10% off during the group buy!

fingers crossed that the drop test wasn't a disaster....

I wish they would hurry. I have been riding my Can Am Spyder until the bars are finished!
