Particularly on the 150 and 225 (same bracket). I had a 150 saddle break at sea - had to lash the engine onto the back of the boat. Fun and games. I believe Honda offered a more heavy duty version aimed at the Superstock lot but this also had issues. The solution seems to be not to trim up too much in the rough.

'There are' not 'there's'.
That IS a lot less threads than there are posts, by boring, whining f'kers with absolutely no life of which, you are No.1. Now go a get yourself a girlfriend and a drinking habit like other 'blokes' of your age.

If you are going to be the grammar police you need to make sure your own posts are spot on, otherwise you just look like a tw@. Spelling and grammar pedantry is usually peddled by people of forums looking for an argument with nothing constructive to say - which is why the posting guidelines say: "ou're not going to be marked for spelling and grammar". If you are that bored you might want to refresh your memory: http://www.rib.net/forum/f31/general...html#post48783

I think he's more messing with the Admin team seeing just how far he can push it. He must have fond memories of his cross dressing phase!

I think when the Honda Racing class still existed they built up a reputation for this within racing circles however when you see what the engines had to stand up to its hardly suprising... TBH the bracket looks much the same and uses the same Power T&Tilt as many other manufactures including Suzuki, Evinrude etc.

This is the same with the racing Evinrudes, they are now moving towards using mounts CNC milled from billet.
I am interested in the strengthening you had done to the jockey seats, do you have any pics of this?
