Dok sent me a pic of his new carbs he's put on for this race season, said he paid a lot of money to get them shipped from Japan, apparently they were only available for one year on commercial motors.

What year were the tongs? Home Hardware or Canadian Tire? I heard somewhere in 2013 the Canadian Tire ones had accuracy problems? You Yamaha guys and your metric system... Always messes me up? |

Did you use the 6 hole system or the 4 hole system? I've seen plenty of guys have the 4 hole system rip right off at 37mph! I usually like to take the lid off a dumpster and use it for a windshield. I tested it all the way to 42mph and the hood didn't come off! |

Any thoughts on upgrading your jack plate with the expected increase in hp? |

Your 300hp rated aluminum jack plate is junk now. You will bend it like an English pretzel . You should upgrade. |

No worries Geigertec is on it, Bryan fired up the plasma cutter last night and with The Gun welding he thinks he should save Ricky a little weight off the ass end at the end of the day. Win-win I'd say! Gig said he's gonna build RBT's new mid out of the same material!

you seriously have no idea how many jack plates have broken and sheared off ? and you all think your jack plates are "made in the usa " now that is dangerous. |
