You got it! We'll work something out.

Does the Riva adjustable cdi have timing advance?
I have a WSM now and I'm not sure if it advances
the timing or I need to on the stator?

PM me you address.

Funny how fashion changes. Dropping it off to the professionals in the morning for black and white.

Matched mani to cylinders and opened it up the to 46/47 mm it was at 42/43.

Man thats really going to look nice with some color on it. That lowered hood really makes a nice shape.

Sorry tnj scooped it up. I think Riva Yamaha still has some in stock.

Pump is ready to install with a 9/17 Skat and $49 pump cone of ebay. Not sure how many degrees of throw I have. I did trim the flange for more throw.

Got rid of the stock metal reeds. Opened up head pipe to 46/47 mm and match to mani. Jetted carb.

Carb Specks:
46 mm SBN
12psi popoff w/2.3 needle & seat
117.5 low speed jet
145 high speed jet
low screw out 1/2 turn
high screw out 1 1/2 turns

I understand where the high price comes from on a built turn key ski!

I have a 44 mm Carb, intake and reeds for sale.

Its getting into the fun part of the build. At least I can wear some clean clothes to work in now.

Picked up handle pole parts today. The local place did a nice job power coating.

Its like the Odyssey leaver was made for Yamaha.

 

[driftmaster]

Got the hull back today!

Thanks. The pole is -5 & 1/2".

Pump, scoop and R&D grate went in like it was made for it and the trim.

It is easy! Just have to have the want to! If I can do it out of my small tool box any one can do it.



My steering didn't center up with the trim. After a few PM's I learned that you will need a SeaDoo ball joint connecter on the pump end of the cable.The stock Yami one is 3/8 to 1/2'" short. So add it to your list of things you will need on your 650 pump mod if you want trim!
I'm waiting on a order from Parker and Blowsion to finish up. I was hoping it would be here on Friday. I'm glad it didn't show. It gave me time to do the fu fu stuff and do it right. Other wise I probably would have rushed to finish and it would have been no reason for me too.

I'm thinking the stock hood may look better?

I washed/cleaned out the inside of the hull and filled it up with water just to see the one-way's work. Dang! It dumps the water FAST! Hope they don't have a leaking problem. I will do my best to keep from dropping Zip Ties or anything else in the hull.
