Looking for a little help

[Dj goodson]

Good morning everyone. 
I recently had the outstanding oppurtunity to pick up a Bayliner trophy 2002wa with a 125 outboard on it.  It has a kicker motor plate. Which I have placed my kicker on. 
with that being said. What’s everyone running for linkage between the two motors? 
the main motor has a disconnect like you would see on an air line. 
also . Unless it’s off the back of the motors, I’d need something that has a bend in it. 
Merc 125 2 stroke, merc 9.9 4 stroke

I have the same boat and love mine!  @Bo Hunter has a kicker on his and might be able to share.  
 

for autopilot I went in a completely different direction

Congrats on the new boat. I have the other “airline looking” part that goes on the kicker motor as well as the bar if your interested lmk

It’s called an e-z steer system,google them and you’ll be able to get the rest of the kit you need to complete your hookup from main motor to your kicker.

I think if I remember correctly there are two models one for IO's and one for outboards like yours. The connector rod adjusts somewhat between the two motors

I have a Panther steering kit that I paid 20.00 on here, but never used it. If I can still find it, it has a rod that can be bent to the way you want it, but I will ship it to you for 20.00 including the shipping cost. I will never need it as I'm running a Mercruiser with a kicker and use an EZ-steer to steer it.

 

 

Another thing I suggest is to go to eBay and do a search for an outboard to outboard steering rod or a kit. You can see a lot of options.

Yup. Outboard to outboard.

I like the front steering over the EZ STEER, but to each his own. 

 

I do use an ez steer on my Mercruiser outdrive to my kicker, but it's the only way I know that works.
