    Doitone - excellent seller

    I bought a trim system from him. He gave me a good deal, shipped when he said he'd ship, promptly provided me with a tracking number, and even went out of his way to send me a small part that he'd forgotten to stick in the original package. And the system is in excellent condition. Thanks!

    Super Jet Studs instead of head bolts

    I get pretty tired of Yamaha head bolts stripping or breaking. Granted, it doesn't happen very often, but once or twice a year is enough to make me very uncomfortable whenever I torque my head bolts (also not very often). Art at Jetworks told me last week that ADA now offers a stud kit for...

    Sweet 4-Tec carnage

    So this guy brings me a 2006 Seadoo GTI with the 130HP 4-Tec engine. He says that he let a friend borrow it and when he got it back, there was no oil in the block and a bunch of oil in the hull. I told him that there was no good ending to that story. Also, the pump was missing. WTF? Not...

    GP1200 motor mounts work in SJ?

    I read in some thread here that GP1200 motor mounts work as direct replacement for the Superjet mounts. Any particular year GP1200? Is it the standard GP1200 or the GP1200R? Thanks for any help.

    Member of the busted mounts club

    We got another v-wake session going on the river today in nice weather. The first flip attempt of the day went bad. I timed it wrong and went too low and not enough rotation. I pancaked it and finally paid my dues for countless pancakes in the past year. All four motor mounts ripped off. My...

    MS109 Goodness

    On advice of Art, I decided to try some MS109 mix in my engine this weekend. I usually run a 3:2 mix of 100LL avgas with 91/92 pump gas. Today I ran a 1:1 mix of MS109 with 91/92 pump gas. Man, what a difference! My motor ran purdy good before, but with that mix it just turned into mean &...

    Flatwater sucks

    I haven't been on the river in 2 months now. In fact, in the last two months I went riding only for one weekend at the Oregon coast. I figured I'd see a bunch of boats out today to go chase. The launch ramps were zoos. People don't know how to back up a trailer. They have absolutely no...

    Stumped about 1100 backfiring

    I've got this 96 Venture with an 1100 here that keeps backfiring through the exhaust and the intake. Flywheel looks fine, as does the woodruff key. Reeds are good. Over the course of several hours of troubleshooting, it has gotten worse. Grounds are all good. The only thing I can think...

    Buying a hybrid, need some advice

    My Walmart special fell apart the other day and I am tired of using a POS for transportation. So I am going to be getting a hybrid/flatbar roadbike for my daily commute. Currently that's 8.2 miles round trip, but it may grow to 20 mile round trip by the end of summer. I am looking at the Trek...

    Polaris public service announcement

    When PWC mechanics die and go to hell, they will forever be damned to wrench on Polaris couches. That's all.

    Glass carnage and LOL @ Mark Erickson

    Some glass carnage. The first one is a 24/7 ride plate made by Erickson. I had it for exactly 3 tanks. The damage happened within 15 minutes of being done with the last tank. It slightly delaminated. :lmao: And the last one is my WDK nose piece. I lost it on the way to a ride...

    Need 08 SJ rideplate information

    Is the 08+ SJ ride plate the same as the old Squarenose plates, with six bolt holes? Are the holes in the same locations as the Squarenose plates? Thanks.

    V-Wake Backflips on the Columbia

    We managed to get two nice wakeboard boats out on the water today for a V-Wake session. A good v-wake freakin' launches you! :bigok: My flips got nearly as much air as those I've tried in the surf. I need to work on my form more. The best one I nosed in. I have no trim, but a shortened...
