Twelve pages of posts, and.... has anyone "tested" them yet?
Oh ya, that was my first thought after I putting these on. Drop my 690lb motorcycle on PURPOSE!!   ::)

Too much sarcasm?

"Show us your Canyon Cage"... Not enough pictures here!   :P

Maybe we should rename this topic "Let's talked about your Canyon Cage". More pics please

I believe fully that the step nut gets "enough"...  But there are two things here.

1)  As I said, the nut is a hex nut, which "cuts" the paint in a circle and will likely lead to corrosion.
2)  The hole in that nut which isn't completely filled with bolt really needs to be filled with SOMETHING, as moisture is going to get in there and corrode, I'd think.  Maybe that's not as big a concern. 

I don't think that painting the nut would solve it, as you say Ryan.  It'd get scratched up pretty well during installation.  Maybe I'll fill the gap with RTV and hand enamel it black.

But my biggest concern is really point 1.  And I don't think we'll see how bad it is for a while.  But I believe that riding in the real world, in 2 years it's not going to look real good around that nut.

I notice that the people who thought there weren't' enough pics on this thread and it was too much of a discussion about the product are being incredibly helpful in that regard...

wait... too much sarcasm?  :)

Why the harshness, Max? Is there some sort of inside joke I'm not aware of? I thought the guy was just asking if anyone has dropped the bike yet and "tested" the bars? Or do you not want him to jinx anyone? Lol!

I'll bet on the latter.  :)

So do we have a "deal" where we can buy 1 side if we're an existing customer, should Very Bad Things happen?  :)

Anyone who has purchased any of our guards can call us up and get a side replaced should they have an accident and require a replacement!
