Lighter flywheels spool up faster at what cost ? How does this affect crank bearing life/ engine longevity ? The flywheel acts as a crank harmonic balancer to help with vibration. Does any of this matter because you have run a lightened msd TL FW for several seasons without issue ? Anyone care...
Have seen one case where a 771 needed bigger pilot jets and heard of another ski that needed re-jetted also in some unknown way. Seems this isn't common knowledge and I thought I'd pass it along. Not sure if this is the case with smaller motors like 701. Also as a reminder do not use non...
Ya think it's time for new turf ? Waffle turf probably doesn't last as long but I think it looks nice especially the dual colors. Heard someone say it grips better too ? Idk. I really enjoy removing old contact cement, wish I did this fulltime. Going to go with the blue on black turf, how does...
sj762 designed a test today to check if cooling lines are leaking inside a carbon hull and under the tray. The lines in the pump area are blocked off with a bolt capping off a cooling hose. Inside the hull a water hose is hooked up and the lines are put under full pressure. Hull is propped up in...
Seems like half the people are posting pics as an attachment file and the other half as full size pic. What is the method to avoid it being an attachment ? I knew how on the previous site, seems like others could benefit too.
Bendix came apart and took out charge coil ( 0 ohms) and probably lightning coil battery was down to 11.5 volts. Got home from riding it ran 5 seconds and shut off. I had no spark and found Bendix to be stuck engaged. Fortunately sj762 has the parts I need and this didn't happen on the next ride...
Brake cleaner sprayed/ drawn into them by using a short piece of primer line to fill, fixed three non working primers today...I will always buy primer bulbs from now on because plungers style are unreliable imo. My Freak has a bulb style and they are so much better I believe.
Thought I share a...

Flip is near the end at 2:25.
Large screen suggested.
Thanks to spjt for video.
Freaks are so stable they surf waves without a rider too.
Anyone sand the inside diameter of spacer ring to fit ? Apparently they made a bunch that have too small of an inside diameter to fit on the pump.They fit inside the nozzle fine so outside diameter is right on. It's made of billet but if it's not sanded even, the long pump bolts won't go in...
Built and motor swapped this little beast in one day past friday with the help of two friends sj762 and spjt (thanks again guys). Thanks to Chuck at XS for building the special topend with Blowsion 850 to 900 sleeves, CR 500 89.5 mm pistons and his magic. Also added new XS modded 46 carbs with...
