barryj Posted March 11, 2022 Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 Trying the F plate UPM on the Donek Rev 163. Sean says it only attaches one way but with 4 UPM holes each side and end and only 2 attachment points each side from the F plate it seems you would have a choice of moving the plate forward a UPM set of holes.... right? Anyway I mounted it in the rear sets of UPM insert pack. Am I missing something, does this look correct?? Taking it out for a spin today..........

bigwavedave Posted March 11, 2022 Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 All I know is that most riders like the rear to be fixed and the front to slide. I would ask Sean if it's not clear with whatever instructions came with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm talking about moving the plate forward or backwards an UPM insert pack or 2 on the board. On a positive note I took it out for a hour morning session and I must have got the install correct as the ride was Great! The plate adds more power and response in my turns and somewhat smooths out the slop and chop...... I Like It! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep..that's what mine looks like Edited March 12, 2022 by barryj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurch Posted March 12, 2022 Report Share Posted March 12, 2022 (edited) @lowrider 'riding' is OK, it is 'mounting' that is frowned upon. Edited March 13, 2022 by Lurch Mounting A(f)plates is Great Again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
