I have a set of pilot skis I am mounting on my 07 RTX. I got them with a kit #860510800 It included 2 mounts # 505072018. When I mounted the first ski it seems to fit alright with the mounts, but the ski looks tipped a little like it has camber. Its not alot, but it is noticeable. Did I install the wrong mounts or maybe backwards? Should I try the stock Yamaha ones and modify them? Is the tip OK? Maybe some pics would help unless someone else has seen this issue?
 
I mounted pilots on my 08 Apex and my 05 Vector. One of the skis on the apex is slightly tipped also. I switched it with the ones from the vector. It was in the ski, in my case, and hasn't made any difference in handling. I wouldn't worry about it. A separate piece of advise would be to make sure you have the toe out adjusted and you may want to shim your skis . . . Made the pilots handle even better. Good luck.

;)!
 
Thanks I did adjust toe to 1/8th inch out. I think it is just the tip that is slightly bent. The mount part number ended up in one of the other posts so I think I have it right. I cant wait to try them out in the snow we got coming in
