what kind of ride plate is that? looks like some sort of hull extention!
Is this a add on to make it surf friendly?

and are you going to be at daytona?

I will be down there late Thursday night.

It is a rideplate that extends the hull a few inches. Interested to see how it works. I may end up trimming it down some.

Hey Man,

I have decided to purchase the Q8 but can't seem to make up my mind on what decals and stickers to order as it is unclear on the website.

Any Suggestions??????

thanks

Eric uses a guy named Thad at IconDigital. I can get you Thad's email if you pm me. He can send you layouts to pick from. I had him use neon which he doesnt recommend bc of possible fading from the sun. I think it just looks that much better and I can re tape it if they fade.

Motor Update.

So I have moved the 777cc Polaris Motor onto my shelf for the time being. Here is a picture of the newly rebuilt and reworked EME 1000cc Polaris.


Little history on the motor....This was an early generation EME motor that ended up in pieces in some guys shop. Long story short, Eric jumped at the chance to get it back up to speed. While it wont be quite what his newer 1000cc powervalve setups are it is supposed to be a beast.


Should be an interesting setup on a stock ignition and a B pipe. I will update after this weekend.


Big thanks to my brother for the amazing work.

Whoaaa. Just amazing. Too bad we (Poland) do not get ANY of what you guys do overseas... those polaris engines just look purposeful - look at the sieze of the cooling on the head...the huge jugs...pure awesomness

Let us know some of you impressions....
