have a 99 SJ

1. solas 13/15
2. worx intake grate
3. stock ride plate
4. 3-4" stock pole shortened
5. 0 degrees bars
6. UMI spring
7. factory B pipe
8. Bilge 500 pump
9. Blowsion mat kit with footholds

a few questions

i would like to take my jet out to the ocean a few times, are there any other upgrades that im missing for safety of my jet?

can the stock nossle be upgraded or shortened, or another installed for tighter turn angle?

Does anyone know where i can get OEM graphics that were used on superjets from 96-present?

reinforce hull never hurts in the surf.

also it would be cheaper to get some custom graphics made by some of the boards sponsors. OEM is retarded.

If your looking to tighten your turn angle, you can relocate the pivot ball that attaches to the steering cable. If your viewing the ski from the rear, disconnect the cable, unscrew the pivot and drill a hole closer to the nozzle and retap the hole so that the pivot will screw in at the new hole. This will give you a little quicker steering to the left. Helpfull if you barrel roll to the left.

Also ensure the steering nipple at the handle pole end is screwed into the furtherest OUT hole - these too things combined get you more turn.

Blowsion sell an awesome stock modded nozzle on an exchange basis - this will sort you out with LOADS of throw:

Limiting rope!!!
Hood straps?
The oem graphics? Try rivayamaha's parts finder. However, I would recommend Exoticsigns.com instead.

for surf riding get yourself hood straps, limiting rope and a bilge pump. that will be fine for now. worry about reinforcing and adding power later.
get some custom graphics made. oem graphics are boring.

are you from sac?
