    Care to elaborate on the steering?

    PRE 08 vs. 08+ SUPPERJET

    It sounds like the overall consensus would be to bump up to a 08+ rather than try to add sponsons by Tom. Majority of you say the 08+ improves when riding it hard and through corners which is what I am looking for.

    PRE 08 vs. 08+ SUPPERJET

    That's weird; why would adding sponsons over the existing pre-molded sponsons on the 08+ improve the rear-end wander?

    PRE 08 vs. 08+ SUPPERJET

    More "squirrelly" than the pre 08? Interesting... Was it stock?

    PRE 08 vs. 08+ SUPPERJET

    Who has ridden a pre 08 and an 08+ superjet? I haven't yet had the opportunity to ride the new hull. I would like to hear feedback on the handling differences. I have a stock '99 but contemplating getting an 08+ for the "improved" handling. More and more of my friends are getting the new SXRs...

    Lake Nacimiento - Riding

    Oh I had no idea it was that bad. There should still be enough water to have fun on the ski, right? Any other concerns I should be aware of? Any off the grid spots where we can back up the truck and have our own spot to ride or everything else private?

    Lake Nacimiento - Riding

    I will be heading to Nacimiento in a few weeks for a day trip. I haven't been in about 5 years and never with a standup. I will only be taking the standup, no boat. My question is, are there car accessible beaches for the family and friends to hangout out in the water, take turns and spectate...

    Super Jet Recognize this superjet ?

    Back to the Ski in question. I have seen this thing on CL for a little while. Curious to hear what you find out.

    Super Jet Recognize this superjet ?

    I don't love or hate them. I have been told they will improve the handling on my SJ. I have recently been contemplating purchasing a set. That's why I was asking.

    Solution to SJ dash bolts for Hydro Turf?

    Simply aesthetics. I saw one ski, that was noticeable, and didn't like the way it looked. Just want to hear how others approached it. I probably will end up just turfing over it, if nothing else.

    Solution to SJ dash bolts for Hydro Turf?

    I am re-turfing my RN Superjet and decided to remove the stock plastic dash cover. However, there are 4 large bolt heads for the electrical box on the other side. I have seen some turf right over it but you can clearly see the bolts protruding through. My thought was to do a strip of padding...

    Scissor stand?

    Those of you that own or have experience with scissor stands, are they worth the investment? Thinking about buying one for my main stand in the garage and on the lake.

    SJ IMPELLER REPLACEMENT

    Will I lose a bunch on the top end going with a hooker 9/15? Deffinetly want some more punch at the bottom to help boost over waves but don't want to sacrifice too much mid/top range for racing around buoys.

    SJ IMPELLER REPLACEMENT

    I want to replace the impeller on my RN SJ. I have never done it before and I am seeking some advice. First, is there anything else I need to replace when installing a new impeller? Wear ring? Maybe someone can tell me how mine looks based on the photos I attached. What do you recommend for...

    Newbie question. What are the perks behind cutting down the side rails like that? Cornering?

    Intake grate & Ride plate smooth water porpoising

    It's unfortunate to hear you are experiencing the same issue but glad I am not the only one. Have you had the chance to remove one or the other? This will be my next move. The standup is new to me but I have years of experience on the water and understand the importance of weight distribution...

    Intake grate & Ride plate smooth water porpoising

    Only 3 months. I tried shifting weight around and throttle control but I will definitively try again. It seemed like no matter where I was in the tray, it would pop out of the water and then get pulled back in. Again, this was only in smooth water. When it was choppy the ski performed as...

    Intake grate & Ride plate smooth water porpoising

    I added a Pro-tec intake grate and +60mm extended ride plate to my stock '99 Superjet. First ride was early morning glass water and it was porpoising so bad that I couldn't get up to speed. Later when the water was choppy the ski performed much better. Can anyone give me input as to what is...

    Hauling a jetski, Truck bed or trailer?

    I am purchasing my first ever stand up. I wanted to know how practical it is to haul it in the bed of my truck or if i need to invest in a little trailer. It would be nice to have the ability to pull the boat at the same time. Can a few guys carry it to the water? Does anyone dump it at the...
