Was out riding in some chop and it let go in the middle of the driveshaft. Clean break right through. It has the stock pump and after a quick search it looks like it’s a different length than the superjet shaft. Any shops out there sell replacement shafts, or can repair mine (weld and machine...

Cool video! My little 4yr old guy rides ...but not alone yet! That's him in the avatar with me. Probably a ticket waiting to happen but at least he can swim and wears a secure life vest..

I'm interested in this as well - please share any info! :beerchug:

ok, thanks!

I'm pondering cutting the long steel tube (flush with the surface) that currently sticks out inside my pump anout 1.5 inches. will cutting it back effect it from working or will the water flow from the pump still create suction to draw out the water? will it make any diffeence in performance...

stock siphon for bilge (obstruction in pump) will cutting this shorter or near flush in the pump prevent it from working? will it still create suction to drain the bilge? It sticks way out...

my advice is keep it but don't spend so much on it unless you ride for a living - assign a budget for it and don't go over. sell other things you do not use to pay for its mods. if you are in school and trying to save money be sure to pay yourself (save money in a savings account). too many...

maybe check your grounds?:dunno:

Mine's the same way (all stock looking). I think the turf kits covers all that on the sides too. If not you can probably the the stock stuff re-done in a different color..

mine came right off and the spline tool is a must!

congrats - that's cool. I just got an FX1 after about a 10 year lull without a ski! My lasy one was a 650sx and the FX would crush it. I just completely rebuilt the engine and am in the process of adding various performance goodies. I run about 45:1. I heard a must have for the FX is a...

I'm not sure but it was about as wide as a bus from behind!

Actually people with more fat do float better. When I was on a dive trip down in the Caribbean there was a really big lady like 400+ lbs that got in the water with us. It was the only way she felt comfortable with mass supported by the water. I remember watching her like 90 feet down float by...

look at the bright side of couchers - at least these guys were watching where they were going and also provided some nice wake! :bigeyes:
