grate craked

[shhr]

well I was finishing the skeggs when I looked at my grate and found what I thought was just dirt but it was a crack just before the last bolt hole at the back of the grate I dont know how it happened as I have never even had it off, I am just glad I found it so now it is off I have epoxied it up now I am going to try to true it up with the ride plate and I thought I would sharpen the rails on the grate also

anything else I should do to it while it is off I dont think the Riva one is better than the stock on a RXT or am I wrong I can get one overnighted if it is the way to go on a RXT

I have 2 stock grates if you want one.

I would think the Aftermarket Riva grate would give you better results.

And no it didnt happen the ONE time you beach your ski at Newcool beach,lol

I wonder if it was hurting my hole shot

I dont konw how it happened but Rodney is hooking me up with one

[Aquaholic6801]

yeah what ever, that thing is like a bat out of hell from the hole, If it was I dont think you will be able to hold on,lo l

I have seen a couple stock grates crack just like you described. If you look at the Riva grate is is alot thicker in that area. Put the Riva one on and put the 2 extra bolts in to make it bullet proof.

On an RXT it will slow you down!

[shhr]

Yea I think I will stick with the stock one, picking one up today

[RXPNJ]

Don't do anything to the stock grate. If you try to sharpen the grate or take material off, it will break when you are riding
