I recently bought a stock pump shoe from Riva. I had allready placed the order when a fellow rider suggested greater yamaha. Ouch! This piece of plastic from Riva was approx $83.00 & change plus shipping around 105.00. Same piece of plastic on greater yamaha's site. $54.00 plus shipping...

Straight forward. Says what he does, does what he says. Fast shipping. Scary sense of humor.....Daytona....lol

May seem like a newbie question, but I was just about to buy a box of plugs and realized that I'm changing out my head next week. (and I don't know what plugs I'll need!) I'm currently running br8es in an older a/m head. Getting an ADA for a 701 w/ average bolt-ons. 33cc domes, approx 200 psi...

Simple question for sj surf riders with tubbies. Do you "pearl" less. or at all? I've been pearling hard and often since I shortened my pole. I realize that I will adjust, but was wondering..... Can tubbies "make-up" for the sj's lack of rocker? And, if so, at what cost of performance...

I know this has come up b4. But I'm getting tired of it. I realize it's not a problem with the site. If I spend a significant amount of time typing/replying to a post ....I'm booted off the site and have to log in again and all is lost. Please help. I'd go into more detail but I'll get booted!

I know there are a lot of us out there, and flatwater vs. surf will be different, but I'd like to hear the things you did to your ski that REALLY made a difference in performance. We can't all have 1000cc motors. Let's help each other make our 701's rock. I felt an immediate difference with...

I figured I'd start this even though my cam died in the water 5/25. Might be something on the sd card, but I'll have to use another device to try it. Truly, big waves. Not as clean as "Bill", but still a treat this time of year. I know there were other cams out there, so PLEASE post what...

Had a great time. About 15 riders? Here's some pics that Tanner wanted. Multiple vids to follow. more...

Is it me? Or are members "not" posting pics and vids as much as b4? Has the site become "pro-only"? Some of the best vids I've seen were from regular riders, just doing something different. Remember the underwater vids of subs? The jersey guys rippin' it thru the marsh creeks? It seems that...

Says what he does....Does what he says. Straight-up guy. If he ever finishes his build, and likes it, some of you FX-1 cult types may get a shot at his cherry ski! Thank you Don, Dan

You don't expect used parts to look this good. I strongly recommend Jetmaniac's parts/services to any and all looking for parts in general. Shipping was a day earlier than predicted. Thank you Jetmaniac.

I'm no computer expert by any means. However, one of the techs from DCR engineering suggested this anti-spyware-portable. It constantly changes it's name for security. It got rid of 160 threats the first time I ran it. The only advise he gave was to check for updates b4 you run it each time. He...

There are a lot of great threads with a lot of great info here on the X when it comes to shortening the stock pole. However, the one area I have a problem with is...... What kind of epoxy to use for the "Glass to Metal" bond. Counting on input from all. Thanx ahead, Dan

There's a nice write-up & some pics in the latest issue about the 2010 event. Nick gets some well deserved props. "Biggest in the World"! Thanx again Nick!

I thought I was in plenty of water. I guess not. Got some glass work to do on the nose. Broke 3 motor mounts. Shattered the coupler. Broke the pole bracket. The pump shaft won't spin. (it looks like the mid shaft moved forward) I hope that's all. Haven't gone thru it completely yet. Will post...

Maybe a worthless post, but... Any Kawi 650 owners in the "Vermont Heights" area? I ask cause I saw a 650 handlepole in the "up" position as I was driving home from work. I only saw the handlepole cause it was behind a fence. No grips on the pink bars.... I've seen some couches in that...

I know ...I've reached the next day and said, "what the heck did I post on the X?" Sometimes it's embarrasing, sometimes it's not as bad as I thought it was gonna be. The truth is...we all know when we're posting intoxicated. Why not shovel us off to a new section: "Intoxicated Posts"...

I can't say that I've done a build. A little here, and a little there..... Bought 2 sj's (2004's) in Sept 2003. My wife's remains bone stock except for a b-pipe, primer kit and a jet-trim chinpad. 701 to 737 83mm Pro X pistons (Nuklear6) Boring and decking (Nuklear6) Ported: Cases, cylinder...

Just saw an episode of "Whacked out sports". (re-run I'm sure). But I'd never seen it b4. "big air episode". Guys were riding the rapids 50 yards upstream of Niagra Falls. That's ballsy! Anyone seen this? I think I saw a double BR and a lot of other tricks. Whoever it was....wow!

I'm going to finally replace reeds after nearly 7 years on the stockers. However, I'm having difficulty finding the difference between V-Force 2's and 3's. (other than cosmetics) Thanks, Dan
