Also known as an H bracket, motor toter, transom saver, or motor support, this product fits over the trim rams of your outboard, bracing the motor against the bracket so the hydraulic tilt system is not left carrying the full load of the engine over rough roads. It is designed for most outboards rated 150 horsepower and up that use exposed trim rams.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach stick measures 8 1\/2 inches long and is built from strong aluminum tubing with molded ends, giving it durability for repeated use in both salt and fresh water without the bulk of a traditional transom saver bar. The compact design makes it easy to install before towing and remove before launching, and just as easy to store in between trips.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne fitment note to be aware of: on some Yamaha motors, a grease fitting is located on the port side trim ram. In that application, use only a single Motor Stik on the starboard side ram.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e T-H Marine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e MSS-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Outboard motor support stick, sold as a pair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Strong aluminum tubing with molded ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fits over trim rams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Horsepower:\u003c\/strong\u003e 150 horsepower and up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Safe for salt or fresh water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Components:\u003c\/strong\u003e Motor Stik pair (2 support sticks)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.14 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 733572067750\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Warranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the T-H Marine Motor Stik MSS-1 do?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Motor Stik MSS-1 fits over your outboard's trim rams and supports the motor while trailering, taking the pressure off the hydraulic tilt system so it isn't bearing the engine's weight over bumps and highway miles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long is each Motor Stik?\u003c\/strong\u003e Each stick in the MSS-1 pair measures 8 1\/2 inches long, built from strong aluminum tubing with molded ends.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size outboards is the MSS-1 designed for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Motor Stik MSS-1 is intended for most outboards rated 150 horsepower and up that use exposed trim rams.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the Motor Stik be used in saltwater?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the MSS-1 is safe for use in both salt and fresh water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the Motor Stik made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is made from strong aluminum tubing with molded ends, part number MSS-1 from T-H Marine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I use both sticks in the MSS-1 pair on every motor?\u003c\/strong\u003e On most applications you use both sticks, but on some Yamaha motors with a grease fitting on the port side trim ram, use only a single Motor Stik, and mount it on the starboard side ram only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the Motor Stik protect my outboard while trailering?\u003c\/strong\u003e By fitting over the trim rams, the MSS-1 braces the outboard against the bracket, taking the pressure off the hydraulic tilt system during towing instead of leaving the engine's weight resting entirely on the hydraulics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs a Motor Stik the same thing as a transom saver?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the T-H Marine MSS-1 is also referred to as an H bracket, a motor toter, a transom saver, or a motor support, all describing the same trailering support function.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many pieces come in the MSS-1?\u003c\/strong\u003e The MSS-1 is sold as a pair, meaning two individual Motor Stik support sticks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere does the Motor Stik attach to my outboard?\u003c\/strong\u003e The MSS-1 sticks fit over the trim rams of the outboard to create a support brace during trailering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the MSS-1 pair weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The T-H Marine Motor Stik MSS-1 pair weighs 1.14 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the Motor Stik MSS-1 come with a warranty?\u003c\/strong\u003e The MSS-1 is backed by a 1 year manufacturer warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"T-H Marine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48991269585115,"sku":"T-H-MSS-1-DP","price":45.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/MSS-1-DP_01.jpg?v=1784498927","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/t-h-marine-motor-stik-outboard-motor-support-stick-pair-mss-1-transom-saver-brace-for-trim-rams-fits-most-150hp-outboards","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
