Definitely a significant compromise in terms of cabin noise for even short drives, especially with a straight pipe exhaust. It would be fairly easy to remove the rear partition and extend to achieve the other two points thou should I opt to do so at a later date.

Some users might choose to go with the aluminum offering for the weight savings. My unit is steel as I indicated in the article. I believe Carbing reports the AL to be approx. 50% lighter. I wouldn't opt for that compromise because of the possibility of multiple hits, but any safety compromises by going that route is each users call.

Andrie, your feedback is always welcome. I had discussed the AL vs. Steel roll cage construction myself on a few occasions out, and there are always identical conclusions due to the properties of the metals. I do recall this thread recently to that effect:
