The guy I got one of my trailers from had two hydros, he said they were killer race skis but that was it. He said he hated rec riding with them. They do look and sound killer IMO though..
I use Awesome cleaner on the snow camo turf on my 550, keeps it sparkly white. I have noticed that the white has started to deteriorate a bit, not sure if its related to the cleaner or the sun beating down on it sitting outside. It is however 3+ years old..
I didn't know Matt was an electrical engineer.. I figured there wasn't anything to it being as I had never seen it before but I thought it might be interesting to see what kind of miracles it worked in the owners eyes:lmao:
Yup that what I was thinking it was.. a stiffening capacitor, couldn't for the life of me remember what they were called. I think I might email the seller and ask about it.. Its really got me wondering what the purpose of it is in this application.. We'll see what they say...
Whats going on guys, I was surfing fleabay earlier and came across something that I haven't seen before. I searched the site but didn't find anything related to this. I don't have a whole lot of knowledge/experiance about total loss set ups but I have followed numerous build threads involving...

I couldn't figure out what that extra fitting was either when I got my 650sx, seems like I found a diagram and it had it listed as a drain line or drain tube. Not realy sure what for though, I'll see if i can find the diagram again.
So I stayed on the lake with it for about 2 hrs today, everything burned out and is back to normal. I guess it was just excess buildup from the engine choking itself out.
I have been thinking about getting a prog or k&n type FA (already has the round adapter on the carb and i'm thinking about...
Thanks for the reply back, I just checked the plugs and compression this morning.
Plugs were wet and dark compression is still 150 in each hole.
I adjusted the carb to stock settings, H 7/8 out, L 1 3/4 out the were both a a little more open than stock. Cranked her up on the trailer and still...

Last week at the lake (after running a tank of fuel, runs great prefect spark color) started bogging terribly bad and wouldnt get up on plane at all. Pulled the hood, smoke...
I've been mostly lurking here for a few months, so I guess it's time. Here we go.

I blew out my MCL about 5 weeks ago and finaly got back on my ski today. I have a Donjoy ACL Armor brace that I used today to ride. It was awkward as hell to begin with, makes your knee feel like its 4 inches wider when your kneeling in tray. So instead of just sliding my foot past my knee to...
I reciently was given a js300 hull which is still in good condition but the motor and electronics are shot. So I have decided to start getting a list together of what I will be needing to drop either a 650 or 750 engine in the hull. I know i'll need the conversion plate and the electronics for...
