Rupes LK900E Review

Rupes LK900E Review

I’m a polisher/machine nerd and have wanted to try Rupes new entry into the forced rotation scene. I picked up a LK900E.
It has the same Rupes quality/build that can be expected of all their products. It feels very balanced and comfortable. It comes with 2 backing plates.

Let’s try this thing out! I used this machine on the last detail job I did. The 2018 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat.
It took a bit to get used to the ‘backwards’ rotation compared to my Flex 3401’s, but once I did, it really performed well. I will say that it seems/sounds like it is ‘faster’ in rotation compared to the Flex 3401, but I have nothing scientific to back this up. Just from my eyes/ears. It was comfortable to use during the many hours of correction that I used it for.

Overall I am happy with my new acquisition!

I like the big speed control dial and RPM range map on the back,,with my RBL I just had to figure it out.

Very nice. I believe it spins faster to make up for the shorter throw than the 3401.

A new surgical tool for the doctor

Absolutely Adam!!!
