Yeah I definitly want to get it on the water, I always finish my projects so I definitely plan on getting it done, engine is already apart with a bad rod bearing and I already got a parts list and started a wanted thread on here which has been a huge help

Whats the advantage of finger throttle?

What about the 650 kawi motor? Whats involved in that sway and what motors will work?

Heres a pic of the bars and the ski

Hello, i am new to the jet ski world but not to two strokes and small engines, i always had snowmobiles, quads, and trikes. But i just picked up a nice 87 js 550 that needs a decent amount of engine work including a crank. But anyways i was wondering how these skis are? Common mods? Things to do...
