Here is what I know for sure , the stock starters on those are junk , they never worked well and slow starting was normal, it will run better with a 44 carb but you will need an intake manifold anyway so go with one that will fit an SBN carb , the old BN 44 carbs are not worth the hassle . You...

Yes a couple of guys in our group were just like that , ridiculous amounts of money in their skis , then poof all gone , I have been in it long enough to see it happen at least three times now , with three different riding groups , of course they all of them lost their a$$ when they cashed out...

I was talking to a good friend and customer the other day who used to race Jet skis and we got on the topic of what the sports costs now, I saw great similarities to the freestyle side of it as well , guys spending $20,000 on one off fuel injection systems for their race skis, $30,000 and...

Well one thing is for sure now we know how much a V2 retains value after the sale

No luck on the bedplates so far , I have a few more places to look before I throw in the towel.

I have been into a slew of 800's and 1200's but usually just top end repairs , I think I may have built one complete 800 and one 1200 over the years , I guess I am about to make up for all of that this year lol.

Thanks for the info , I am about to build three 1200's and an 800 soon most are for flip skis and one for a customer.

This is the first I have heard about a case defect, please elaborate or point me in the right direction.

I always wanted to do an 800 with two GP1300 NPV cylinders to se how it would run.

That would make the most sense since it could have just been added to the tubbie 1 molds .

I had to blow up that photo abput 200% to see it , there also looks to be some differences on the trailing edge, the Tubbie 1 looks to come to more of a point whereas the Tubbie2 flattens out more at the rear.

I had a set of those LX plates but I think they are long gone now, I will take a looksee when I am up there Saturday .

Yeah I saw it , that would have been an awesome deal if it was all there.

Yes but they also produced manifolds that were used with this pipe , it's the couch pipe like you are looking for , VXR , WRlll .

This industry was and is built on people taking others ideas for their own use , it's nothing new and it won't stop anytime soon , I am glad to see these engines out in the market and in peoples skis, regardless of the backstory , history etc etc . At least some people like Art at Jetworks have...

That Protec pipe on mine fits in there with no mods to the hood or anything , just letting you know. Othere than some fiddling with exhaust tubing the only issue I remember was fabbing up a bracket to hold the e-box.

I will probably never own on , at this point my riding skills are what they are and my wallet won't allow it , I am way more interested in the technical aspects of the cylinder personally , if that makes any sense to you.

All 38 Mikuni's have the exact same base pattern all the way back to the BN carbs , so yes it will defiantly fit , Seadoo used a weird side pull choke and they mounted the cable mount for the choke and the throttle on the flame arrestor top cover , that is why the choke won't hook up and work...

If you do by some weird happenstance decide to put the 500 back in it do yourself a favor and replace all those exhaust gaskets on the back of the motor before you put it back in. I have tons of those gaskets here that you can have , just pay the shipping . Also I am pretty sure a Seadoo...

I thought the whole point of producing this cylinder is that out of the box it would out perform a Dasa or other type cylinder and that it didn't need to be modified , yes I get that the cases have to be drastically modified for the cylinders to work properly and the pistons to clear but the...
