After some dry runs last night the pole feels pretty good. Other than the slop in the bolt bushings I'm a heavy rider at 200+ so it may ride ok for me. On my 550s I am always trying to get my body farther forward. I don't think I'll have that problem here

quote "(WILKEY Whoever welded that was smoking a fat rok! )" thats funny, I was thinkn the same thing,,,,but it fits and its relativly straight so I'm runn'n it

hood weighs 12.25 pounds with billet hardware and hood pins. i need an exhaust elbow from an sxr to make this water box work better. anyone have one i can pick-up in Daytona? im putting it back in as it was for now.

sjetrider,, so its just a group K flywheel for the Kawi motor, I mistook that thinking you were installing a groupK motor. So will still be a Kawi setup. Would love to check it out in Daytona, you are more than welcome to come check mine out. to clear things up, I have an 849 groupk big...

I'm glad you dont have to drill

Steve-UK I like the bow eye you have. I dont have one yet and its a little annoying. I will have some loops around the front pole if I need towed but a bow eyelet is on the list

Quote. (steve-uk really? my pole is right at the front) I looked at some footage of other ROKs in use and they look pretty short as well. It will get run in Daytona as is to get a feel for it and then I'll make a call on what needs to happen. I havent rode the boat yet and I'm looking...

INDebtSJ Set it on fire! that is a vote for heat too

heat always helps, and an impact driver. the worst that will happen is you will break the bolt and have to drill it out..... I will use as much heat as it takes because I HATE drilling

The ski came to me with the pole pivot bolt torqued down tight to take up the slack. That could have broken the mount and the pole base. I just fixed with 2 extra washers. There is still a clearance issue with the pole bushings to the pivot bolt. Ultimatly I will put a center spacer in so i...

So, here are the motor mount pads after I sanded them. They flattened out quite a bit and I feel will transfer weight from the mounts better. probably me being ocd but I think its for the better. Plus any drop I could get was a good thing. The stock plates from the diner ski where installed...

thanks for all the goods. May be people are just under hoods trying to get ready None the less,, thanks to all the venders for helping make the event become what it is See you in 3 days :splatt:

this thing keeps kicking me off and its getting annoying retyping EVERYTHING I write the pole def needs to be longer. the pole tubes are 23.5 inches long the pole is 46 inches from bolt to grips hopefully i can pick up some tubes in Daytona used or from a vender to add about 5 inches...

Its pretty nice for how much stuff was not right and i get the feeling it got beat on a little more than it deserved. The pic of the chunk of coupler was what set of this full tear down and I'm glad I did or the ski would have pissed me off in Daytona. I found it sitting on top of the exhaust...

I'm working on pics as we speak. I will post them when I get done with the ski. I want it done before I leave for tona on we'd am. Hood straps are in the works. @sjetrider, thanks, I'll look at the receipt for the hull and update the post. I do know its light as fuuuge I just...

So I am in need of a few things that people or venders may have for sale in Daytona RRP pinch bolt RRP chin pad black RRP bushings to take up the clearance on the blowsion bracket bolt and WDK pole mount TDR or metal water box to fit the ROK Ok, back to work

I'm work'n on it. The trailer will be done today and after my workout I'll be grinding the engine bed plate for clearance against the hull. Was thinking about putting my groupk lightened flywheel on it while it's out. Then it's time to put it all back together and build my backing plates for...

I found a hole in the hull where the water box rubbed through.... Sanded out the damage and contaminates ( the hole was repaired with rtv) Some epoxy resin and fiberglass (I don't have any carbon) did the trick and I put three layers of 6 and 8 oz mat over the cut glass I used to fill the void...

I pulled the motor to find several issues. Once gutted I was able to fix all the issues properly, or at least, to best of my ability. The RRP pole felt loose and was making noise if I torqed on it. I pulled it apart to find the tubes were only engaged about an inch into both caps. I...

So I picked up 2008sx-r's ROK and nedless to say I have some work ahead of me. Now let me first say that I purchased a ski knowing I would be doing some work to it. Also it was a straight up transaction I got it home Yesterday around 5 oclock. And buy 11 it was scattered in my garage. It...
