    8' power pole on an older skeeter

    Was hoping to be able to get a measurement to the top of an 8' pole on an older zx. Mine is a 2001 zx225 and I would like to put an 8' pole on it but not sure it will clear the garage door. Again looking for groups d to the top on an 8 footer. Thanks in advance.

    Powerpole itself does not make or endorse a tilt bracket, they are available in the aftermarket.
