it sucks that there is 2 different sites. it would be much easier to just look at one. and not have to post here and there.

Some are banned over there and this one was here first.

Wow 19 x2's. What are the x2's like? Are they comparable to a standup?

Im still here, there just nothing to post about as of now because its too cold to work on my ski, and its still in pieces. Also, I have been putting all my money right now in my truck, since my rear end shattered.

Slowed down because everyone is trading their X2 for Blasters...

I am still posting...
I haven't been doing much work on either of mine. I am just stock piling parts still. I thought I had a line on an SXR engine but the seller wasn't trying to be flexible. So I am still looking for a complete SXR or SXi Pro. I can get a better deal that way.
I need to clean/straighten my garage still too. I have parts in boxes still from when I moved at the end of November. As soon as I get everything unpacked, I will take pics and post them up of all the parts I have. One of these days I am going to do a complete build on an X2. It will be the X2 of all X2's!
WAD, the best thing about this site is you can edit your posts! So if you load pics and they are not right, you can fix them!
I know Professor is busy playing hockey all the time. Then again it is in the 20's here in AL so in Pittsburgh, PA it must be cold there too! If I lived up north still, I would be snowboarding every week.

if i get a blaster i'll sell the shark since it has such a large seat for the wife and kids

Yes I concur, its been a little sparse here lately. usually things get really busy in the winter as most of us can't ride, the summer is dead. but this is too quiet.

Queer for the x-2 that is!!!!!
My sexual preferences are private, because what a man, a woman and a donkey do is their own business. :jester:

the reason it's dead here is because the only people who buy x2's are broke azz hillbillies who can't afford internet access. :icon16:

So are you now saying your two X2s are queer? :slap:

I am in the "I sold my Blaster because its sucked and went back to an X2 because it ROCKS!" club.
PS if two X2s together is queer, then there is a full blown gay orgy going on in Wadman's back yard lol I used to have a back yard full of them myself but not quite that many.

The "other site" is wee bit more x-2 friendly IMHO

02-19-2008, 10:52 PM
theyre just more '650' x2 friendly.
WFO Speedracer
02-20-2008, 08:00 AM
I disagree,the x2 group here is way more closely knit than the group over there,hell I even know most of your first names here.:bigok:
dbrutherford
02-20-2008, 08:43 AM
Hey my X2 only has a 650! :( I know it is a said situation. I got sniped last night on a 750 SXi engine and I sniped the auction to begin with with an auction sniper... To a zero feedback bidder too!

hey, you looking for an engine? Buddy of mine has a complete 750 Xi Sport that he would part out........... dual carbs, everything.

I don't know any of you people. There's stuff wrong with you guys. I certainly wouldn't be in a dark room with any of you queers.
Not because your queer. Just because you don't meet my exceptionally high X2 queer standards. :highhorse:
WFO Speedracer
02-21-2008, 08:08 AM
Dude aren't you the one wanting to make the x2 that breaks down like a shotgun ? Geeezzzzzzzzz and you calling us weird, J/K :twak:
Personally I think you have to be a little off kilter to own/ride/modify/restore/wrench on an X2
WFO Speedracer
02-23-2008, 08:38 PM
wake up people!!!!!!!!!
Boris
02-23-2008, 08:45 PM
Hold your cows.
I just picked up my X2 and am still reading all about them.
Just wait till the build starts, I'll be posting like a crazy mo-fo.
I did get a chance to fully inspect my hull today and found some nice cracks on the bottom. Looks like the 24/7 nose section is in my future.
Also noticed that these hulls have a ton of ribs inside and are quite light. I'll have to weigh that thing but I think the X2 is lighter than a square.
Than again, it's been ages since I picked up an empty square hull.
WFO Speedracer
02-23-2008, 08:50 PM
I believe it is slightly lighter than a square nose.Hopefully one of us will come up with a simple Yamaha conversion setup soon.

02-23-2008, 08:57 PM
I don't have a mid-shaft so not sure on the height but did have some SJ motor mounts in there today.
dbrutherford
02-23-2008, 09:14 PM
I have some secret stuff in the works... Nothing too major just finally going to do a little bolt on mods I have been needing to do.

No "secret stuff" allowed in the X2 section.
Spill the beans.

boris, kawis dont use a "midshaft" quite like the yamis do.
they have a long driveshaft that has splines on the end that couple to the splines in the impeller.
i might have an extra X2 shaft if you need one.
Boris
02-23-2008, 11:23 PM
Thanks Charlie, I'll keep that in mind.
Right now I'm still in the head scratching stage and am researching the whole Kawasaki world. It's quite different that the good old Yamaha universe.
Having a few motors to chose from (Yamaha 650 or 701 or a Sea-Doo 800) makes it a blast than add to that the few pumps I have, even more fun.
I bet that by the time I'm ready to assemble this thing I will have another X2 (maybe more) for parts.
Anyone ever try to bolt up a Yamaha midshaft to the X2 bulk head and run a Yamaha pump ?
Would that be a waste of time ?
sflsurfrider
02-23-2008, 11:32 PM
it wouldnt be hard. youd just need an adaptor plate.
Boris
02-23-2008, 11:42 PM
Adaptor plate ?
Dude, I have self tapping screws, bondo and some crazy glue. No one can stop me.
I might have some time tomorrow so I'll grab some X cases with bed plates, some motor mounts and a raider midshaft. Throw them into my empty hull, shake vigorously and see what sticks.
sflsurfrider
02-23-2008, 11:47 PM
a bedplate would need to be fabricated to make things easier.
im thinking that the aluminum kawi plate that jetskihaven sells would work if it didnt have the holes in the bottom. that way, you could drill holes to match up the case bolts.
dbrutherford
02-24-2008, 07:53 AM
Lets just say there will be a ski out there that will be engine less... and I will have to fix my signature.
WFO Speedracer
02-24-2008, 08:12 AM
I was thinking the same thing on the Jetskihaven plate,it will need to be drilled in a different pattern of course, the kicker is the Yami cases hit on the second boss where the engine bedplate bolts up right in front of the starter,on the stock plates they just drill a hole and let it stick through the bedplate no big deal,I am not sure you could do that on the aluminum plate without severely weakening it,the plate would also have to be extended on the front about an 3/4 to 1 inch to be able to mount it up.I am thinking if you cut the boss on the bottom case to about half the thickness it is now that it may clear the bedplate with maybe a shaved head bolt of course,I will have to look and see if I have a trashed case here somewhere to play with.If I can come up with a modded stock plate for a pattern we could send it to John and I am sure he would have some of them made up if the interest is there.
