Missing Intake Grate on 750 sx

[B-Roy]

Ok, this is the girlfriends 750 kawi.

I paid $400 for it this past winter, went thru it, and made it a nice beginners ski.

Well when test riding it for her, it took a while to get on plane.

I looked at the prop through the pump, and its in nice shape, and the motor revs good. So I was confused, but didnt really care.

She said it was fast enough for her...:haha:

Well today I climbed under my trailer to see if the prop on my SJ had the pitch marked in it, and I noticed the Kawi was missing the intake Grate.


Is this the answer to the slow acceleration?

Once it gets up, its actually a normal speed, but very jumpy.

What grate should I go with to keep it hooked up for her?urr:

Thanks

I had a Worx on my 750. I liked it. A lot better fit and finish than the R&D I tried prior to the Worx. Can't remember the model # though.

Mine came with an R&D and works fine.
I am sure it better than no grate!
