all in all i like going to the lake and seeing all the different brands and models. I wouldnt want to go out and see all sj on the lake. but im betting the yamaha freaks would enjoy that..........could be worse, we could all have seadoos:scared:

I learned how to ride on a 550 in the late eighties/early nineties.

Was out of riding for about six or seven years, but remained loyal to Kawi's when I got back into riding with a 1994 750SX in 2000. I wish I had NEVER gotten that ski. I spent a chunk of change with Blowsion for a hoodliner, handholds, footholds, etc. etc.

After riding a buddy's Superjet, I purchased a 1996 round nose and haven't looked back. It all depends on your preferences and riding style, but in my book, Yamaha is THE BEST. :cool2: :biggrin:

Oh yeah, your original post.

SXIPRO for $1200. That is a good deal if its running good. Not a bad ski. I can still have fun on those, if they have footholds.

As to the original question . . . for $ 500.00 or so maybe, just for an oddball project ski, just to have something different to tinker with . . . . . but not for no $ 2000.00 price tag. . . . . . .


On the issue of SuperJets . . . . . . . yeah, the completely suck ! What with all that great power,bottom and pull and that pesky "alway runs" thing . . . .

I really do hate mine . . . they're boring I never have to work on them ! . . . sheah . . . what fun is that ?

There's a Yamaha dealer just across town . . . . . I've never been there, they tell me it's nice . . . . . .

I got tired of wrenching on Kawi's a long time ago, once you start to modify them it's nothing but work . . . . . . I have had MRD injected Stroker motors in my Superjets . . . never lost any reliability. Can't speak for the SXR's though, I would hope they have improved things since the old days . . . . . .

That is right stay strong you have to stand for something...... and remember that while your riding across the lake watching the SJ's blast off of the waves getting more air than you are dreaming about ... LOL

I am like most others had a Kawi there was no way that I was going to ride a yamaha. Hell my last 4 bikes were Ninjas and then 2 Kawi jet skis. I lived for Kawasaki Well I tried one and WOW there so light and nimbel and the power Heck I was out of the water 2 feet in no time. So I bought one... Then I went riding with Mark44 and the StLouis Crew at the Mississippi and they couldn't understand how I could jump that high without a wave. Then I let Mark ride mine and then he had to buy one.

One by one the lime green blood fades to Blue
