Sixeye Fork
A replacement front fork for Sixchuters. The Sixeye is made of
heavier gage materials than stock with a sturdy beam section at the fork pivot area for
rigidity as well as to prevent weld cracking and fork bending. This basic beam type design
is used successfully on several other makes of PPC as well as on motorscooters and
motorcycles. The Sixeye fork legs are 1/8" wall round steel tube instead of
1/16" wall square tube for better rigidity in all directions. There is also some
added vertical clearance to allow for larger front tires if desired. The Sixeye is shown
on the right with a stock fork shown on the left for comparison. The Sixeye is much
sturdier than the stock fork and will stand up to the punishment often seen in student
training operations or rough fields. The Sixeye weighs 4 lbs 4 oz compared to the 2 lb 2
oz stock fork. Price $115 plus shipping. Custom made forks can also be provided
for any model PPC. Call or write for quotes

improved soft or rough field ride. It has a 7.9" mounted tread width compared to
3.9" for a stock tire. A mounted stock 480/400X8 tire is shown for comparison.

Tenincher Wheel
A 10" polished, chrome plated, steel wheel with a 4 ply, DOT
rated tire and tube. This is a sturdy wheel and tire assembly with a tire that is rated
for highway use. The large diameter high pressure tire gives a low rolling resistance and
the tire design gives excellent steering control. This is a minibike wheel and tire. The
wheel has precision ball bearings for long life. Due to an extra wide spindle area, this
wheel and tire is only suitable for use on front wheels of most PPCs. Special spacers are
provided with the wheel. For Buckeyes, Destinys and Sixchuters with a Sixeye fork a
250/275 tire is provided. For Powrachutes a 410/350 tire is provided. For other model PPCs
or rear axle applications, custom measurement will be required.
Note: Custom made brake installations are available for this wheel.
Custom made forks can also be provided for any model PPC. Call or write for quotes.

Stainless Steel Button Head Manifold Screws
Tired of the gooey mess that the oil seepage from your Rotax manifold leaves on the side
of your engine? It doesn't hurt performance, but it sure looks bad. Here is part of the
solution. Put screws in all 8 manifold hole locations for more even clamping pressure on
the manifold gasket. The low head on these button head screws fits into the 2
"inaccessible" locations on the Rotax manifold allowing for a full compliment of
8 manifold screws. A complete set of 8 button heads makes the installation look neater
although the minimum number of button heads needed is 2 for the "inaccessible"
locations with stock screws at the other 6 locations.
Installation of these special screws requires that
the manifold be removed to work the screws into the "inaccessible" location, so
in addition to the screws you need to replace the gaskets. You also might want to
"dress off" the surface of the manifold to make sure it is flat and true.
Shipping is $3.20 for any quantity
up to 2 lbs (approx 30/lb).
