Freestyle Rickter fs2

[WILKEY]

Brian at THRUST innovations has always had my back. I can't say enough good things about him. I'm still speechless as to how beautiful this hull is. Have not really had the time to post any pictures cause of work and my daughter got sick. I'm gonna have 100000 questions probably when I get this thing started. I kno I can call Brian anytime but I kno he's a busy man. Thanks to all that have offered help i will be needing it
Gonna be a slow build but she will be right when done! I hate riding in the cold so I got till April wavedaze, that will also give my hip sometime to heal.

yes good idea.....I reinforced the out of the nose on my FS1

 

[Proformance1]

Wow, great find. You will love this ski

 

[Moto360]

Ya I would reinforce the FS.

SO tell us Brian......your going to have a PRETTY ski....................:wiggle:

 

[Proformance1]

I agree with Pat you should reinforce this as you are going to beat it.

 

[WILKEY]

It's been reinforced from the factory? It looks like it to me. What you guys think?

 

[Zeon]

Very Jealous of this right now.....

 

[jeastes1]

pretty sure if it was reinforced from the factory than it would be an FR2 right? although my buddy has an xfr, that says xfs on the side, so?

 

[WILKEY]

Me confused too ......

 

[jeastes1]

better ask Brian

id re-enforce a FS for sure.

first tip i can give you, dont install the the ebox in the center of the firewall. it need to be kicked over to the side to clear the headpipe.

second is, take the adjustable motor mount plates off and install your motor mount bolts from the underside so you tighten the nuts down to the mounts. that way, if you break a mount and you have to take it out, the nut doesnt fall under the motor mount mounting plate in that little crevice that you wont be able to get out....

watcon hood seal.

have fun. they are easy to build.

I installed my motor mounts without even removing the plate on my evo. Just brought the bolt in from the underside and put the nut on top. Great thinking though
