Yamaha G2 roll cage
Ive been perusing all the threads and builds and have decided I want to build something a bit different. Id like it to be an actual roll cage and it has to be solid.
1 1/4" schedule 40 pipe uploadfromtaptalk1387593685657.jpg Unlike most other rolls cages ive seen I want mine on the outside of the cart so if it ever does roll itll protect the cart and the riders uploadfromtaptalk1387593781947.jpg uploadfromtaptalk1387593825160.jpg uploadfromtaptalk1387593885845.jpg uploadfromtaptalk1387593937932.jpg This is it for today. I plan to tie into the front chassis where the suspension attaches, wrap around the front end and go up and over from there. The rear end will also be receiving some attention. |

Re: Yamaha G2 roll cage
I'll be following this for ideas. I'm also wanting to put a cage on my G9.

Re: Yamaha G2 roll cage
I've checked out http://xtremecartz.fatcow.com/157923.html for inspiration... and i've taken some ideas from there, like grab handles and the rear seat with grab handles..
but i noticed everyone attaches the front of their roll bar to that little flimsy bracket that holds up the front cowl.. im going straight to the chassis in 3 spots per side.... my only concern is the weight... but with the vtwin i've got going in it should be ok.. hopefully. |

Re: Yamaha G2 roll cage
Here's a couple ideas how I built mine, it attaches the frame 10 points.

Re: Yamaha G2 roll cage
The 90's were purchased from the steel yard. They are schedule 40 90's
I'm going to purchase a pipe bender today to be able to get a more rounded effect, the 90's give it too much of a chiseled look... |

Yamaha razor seats! Score!
uploadfromtaptalk1388251840509.jpg They are just sitting on top of the original bench. . Install them last as to not damage them during the welding and engine install process uploadfromtaptalk1388251899598.jpg And the rear seats uploadfromtaptalk1388251933201.jpg Good thing I got them now so I can fabricate the roll cage around them |
