Don't pay attention to Prop.

A 1098 always had a ribcage and was not originaly fitted to the froggeye.

So what do you have?

Wow, Onno

Thats the best Ive seen on this whole sight!
Nigel? Is there a prop owners manual? I seem to be having some problems with mine! I cant find the shut off valve!
Steven Devine

in truth I seem to recall its a plug and play bolt on modification ... the only Issue maybe the mounting

its not uncommon to replace the smooth box for the ribby

good luck, keep us posted

no manual as I'd guess no one has even owned a Prop

I was going to add something there but I'll save it for later (if I remember)
