You should see it in person. Haha

Giving solid advice and helping others is how we keep the sport alive and thriving, and this forum. We all started with limited to no knowledge. This forum has helped me learn a tremendous amount of jetski and composite knowledge. Its a very good feeling too knowing the time you spent...

Keep the stock bilge and add an electric bilge. The x2s are notoriously bad for taking on water and sinking. I let someone who had never rode an x2 ride mine in some slightly rougher water conditions and he lasted 30 seconds before sinking it. I got to spend the next 45 min getting rhe water out...

Very true but at that point youre just taking a degree or two out of what you measured and thats why the pitch gauge is a good tool to have. You'll also know if the blades are all thr same angle as well

That steering is beautiful. I have a 93 x2. It has the squirrel cage steering and i did the rhaas squirrel cage and an older umi with pro taper pit bike bars and that changed the x2 completely. It was also a nice change cutting the back 1.5 inches off the back and flush cutting the ride plate. A...

Get a impeller gauge and learn to tweak the blades so you can fine tune your pump. The different brand impellers pitch is almost redundant because of how they are designed weight, root pitch, hub size etc. A solas 13/18 is gonna be much different than a skat 13/18. It's how the different...

964 will be a good time in the v3. One of my buddies put a 1021 in his with a similar setup as you. Hes also running 46s, a zeel cdi with 760 electronics and a oem 155 pump. I can tell you from his experience some things he's found getting his tuned. First thing- especially with the 964...

bad ground will cause all kinds of weird issues. are you certain that youre frying stators and cdis? i understand youve replaced them and had the same issue. have you by chance let the engine cool off and checked spark? your flywheel magnets could be failing once the engine gets warmed up.

I ran some oem 44s on my stock 62t before I had it ported and bored over. The key with the stock 760 manifold is filling the crossover. This really helps with tuning especially on the low end. The other thing with the oem carbs is the low speed adjusters. The thread pitch is very fine compared...

I don't have spare 44 carbs but I do have a r&d dual 44 manifold for a 750 im probably never gonna use.

If I were you I'd just get some 46s abd run those in your 62t engine. Do it once. The 46s will work fine on even a stock cylinder with a little tuning. They'll also work well up to 1000ccs for a freeride engine. For freestyle you'll want more carb.

I ran 44s on an unported 701 and it ran great. It doesn't make any sense to run oem 38s on that manifold that is designed for 46s and up carbs. Why wouldn't you run the oem 38 manifold instead?

Big shoes to fill haha. Juvet sent that thing to the moon! Great looking ski congrats

Yamaha skis came with 144 pumps. I dont think kawasaki made a 144mm pump. The 750 pump is the go to for the 550 swaps. You just need a ride plate, pump shoe and x2 driveshaft.
