Thank you, Konstantin

I'll take your word for it :) Going off of my experience with a Mach1 and 1200GTO, it's great to know that the new design is incorporated in the current iteration of the 1100. I will certainly be ordering this as a retrofit for my Mach1, though!

Hi,

I would like to give the advice, that the new counter weight shaft is different to the old ones. The newer has a longer flat part bevore the thread beginns. So it is no problem to insert. Ihave decided to put a part on my older ones in the diameter ot theinner thread. I think you will not need the new parts. What you have to do is digging a small thread in the shaft that can hold the new part. I will send a picture later.

Hi Marj,

Just so I’m clear and don’t pick up something that I might already be getting, 1100s in the run that is currently undergoing assembly and shipping will not feature the S1100CSA, correct? Would it be possible to call the office and add it to my existing mount order, for it to be installed as an option there to avoid wasting the stock aluminum part?

Subject: [ap-gto] Counterweight Shaft Adapter with Stainless Inserts on Web Site



I just saw in the new products section of the A-P web site that they will be offering the counterweight shaft adapters with the stainless steel inserts starting this fall for the Mach 1, 900, 1200, and 1600 mounts, but I don't see the 1100 mount in the list of mounts for which these are available. Will we be able to get these adapters for the 1100 mounts ?

Mike
