Subject: | Re: anyone have a spare pointy nose cone |
Hello Rusty,
My present FS has a longer (about 10") nose cone which tappers down to a very slender
front nose, but it is not pointed, it is flattened. It completely changes
the FS from its gawky blunt nose to a sleek, streamlined plane. In my opinion,
it is much more attractive than Kolb's longer version. I absolutely love
the look, but I designed my trailer around the short stubby nose, so in short,
it makes my FS much harder to load as I now have to go up and over the original
wheel well.
With great pain to my vanity, I am planning in the near future to replace it with
an old stubby nose that I acquired years ago. At my point in life, function
trumps beauty, so my thoughts were to sell it for half the price of Kolb's longer
nose cone.
One of my FS's previous owners still has the mold. If I ever track him down, it
would be a great asset to be made available to the Kolb community. It truly
is a work of art. -Richard Swiderski

Hi Richard,
I think you're FS has been telling lies :-)
It's a neat look, but I'm trying to keep the overall length as short as possible
for easier trailering and storage. My garage is just barely long enough for
the stock nose.
Thanks,
Rusty
