Air bubbles go away with some sun exposure over time. The graphics on each hull in our shop is dead flat.

If I saw it in person I'm sure I'd agree but I'm only looking at the pics from my phone and it looked good that's why I asked.

So a stock battery box not fitting in the hull isn't the norm? Sorry it seems like every time a say somthing and show pics to prove it the posts go silent.

I didn't have a problem with putting a stock battery box in my hull. I haven't heard of anyone else having that problem so I'd say your situation with the battery box is not normal
My graphics look great ! Battery box worked great with minor modifications (had to drill new holes to make kawi stock work with Yamaha hole pattern no big deal) not every aftermarket part will bolt right up without some modification . Should have done your homework . Sounds like things are getting very petty at this point . It's easy to be a critic .i am assuming everything you touch is beyond top notch.

Video shows it doesn't sit flat.
First pic show how it it's lined up it hits the mount pad.
I must be a bob hater I guess since I can't bolt a stock box in this hull.
You guys are nuts. I even give pics on how it doesn't fit but I'm still wrong.

Yep you're right I must be wrong.
BOB is the best hull I have seen. Everyone should buy one!! Great job building a hull at a low price and that does it's job of flipping.
Is that better for everyOne.
Ill keep any neg things to myself and only post the positive stuff.
Ya BOB what a hull.

It's not opinions, maybe you should look that word up. I stated "facts" people just didn't like hearing them. So who cares it goes on deaf ears on here. But the calls and PMs from people who have had the same problems let me know I'm not alone.
Do I think it's a good hull. Yes. Do I think there is room for improvement. Yes. And the Gen3 it looks like they fixed several things. Just like they did from the gen 1 to Gen2.
If everyone is so happy with it the way it is no product will ever improve and you all would be riding 440s. Open your eyes and mind and think for a sec there could be other people out there that may know a few things you don't. Just like I listen to others and learn from others.

I'm amazed at how we keep talking price point. If it aint right then price dont matter. Funny that no one is comparing price point with other hulls? Bullet racing? Rusty's hulls show OEM what a hull should look like and cost the same as BOB. I like how I had to wollow out the holes on a ride plate for my BOB cause the inserts were'nt square, battery box did not lay flat had to be shimmed,pin holes in finish for same price as my cherry Bullet hull? Dude is just saying and showing the issues with the quality of your "budget hull". Could'nt wait to get rid of mine, I flipped it and that was about all it was good for. I know I cant ride as good as all the all stars on here but hull should handle better in my opinion. Not something I was proud of saying what I paid for it. I drank the "Kool-Aid" and threw up. Hull builders out there in the same price point with better quality is all I'm saying. Now you guys can start on me instead of Mark

Definitely a great thread with good drama going on. It may seem like Mark is being very negative about this hull and people may not like the way he lays out the facts but at the end of the day they aren't made up stories and he has said that he likes the BOB hull. Constructive criticism is helpful information for companies to use for improvements. Nothing is perfect and nobody should expect it to be but improvements are a positive thing no matter how minor it may be.
