Man I hate to start a thread to find another one. Anyone else remember a video on here of a little kid doing stunts on a little bike without pedals? They're called balance bikes or strider bikes. The video was really awesome, I think the kids dad was a motocross or BMX guy or something. My...

I've read some info on the X pertaining to this. I know Waternut used vacuum bagging to lay up his hull. Since we have the Composites section now, I thought this would be a good place to consolidate info for this technique. If anyone has experience with this, please post up your suggestions...

I tried searching for this a couple different ways with no luck. What size pipe thread tap do I need to drill the other side of my factory pipe manifold? Mine is only tapped on one side and I want to get it done before I install my engine. Thanks

Dmpus responded to a WTB ad that I had up. Was very fair on price even though I was the one hunting for the part. Shipped the day after I paid via a reliable carrier (Fedex). Product was as described. Great communication, very honest, fast shipper. This feedback was unsolicited. I noticed he...

Ya'll already know... but in case you don't. Jetmaniac is the fuggin man. I mean... he's... and I mean..... even... And he never once made me do this... Or say this... Or this.. But seriously... (as if thats possible) Top notch communication, very fair, customizes solutions to...

TBM says their Yami flywheel should be used with a 62t stator. I have been told by the previous owner of the TBM I have that there is mixed reviews on which stator will work. He also told me that both 61x and 62t will work. Whats the story?

I read ALL the feedback on Chris, Postitive and Negative, before engaging in this transaction. I had some members privately suggesting that I stay away, but I let the postitive feedback sway me into thinking that everything would go fine. Spent almost a grand with Chris for a TBM FW...

Another member posted a stock SJ side view, so a person could possibly design their desired paint scheme on the blank. While it was cool and helpful... it could be better. So I hacked this together in Photoshop... Its not perfect, but its closer to what most people have in terms of hood and...

I couldn't find this info, just lots of questions and some answers. Hopefully this visual reference will be of some assistance to people who arn't sure what they have/want/need. Hindsight, I guess I should have taken some measurements. Maybe I will later. I don't know if this differs between...

I'm in the process of replacing a pump mount and when I drilled through the tray, I was extremely suprised how thick it was. Does this look right? I bought the ski used and its had a lot of owners..... The ski is stupid heavy. I know the foam is wet, but i'm now assuming that someone...

After 3 years of being a FX1 'Fan boy', I finally listened to everyone. I rode every SN and RN SJ I could get my hands on and decided its more suited to my style/ needs etc. I started my search for a RN hull. What I found is a 97 RN, Here is how it was advertised. 1997 roundnose sj hull...

I know the top and bottom deck of the SJ is made of a different type of glass or different glass process (not 100% sure what each one is). I have a 96 RN. When reinforcing the engine bay/bilge, does the type of resin matter? What about prep? Should you scuff everything with coarse grit to...

Ok, I JUST got a bare RN hull from a member, and after weighing it, I dug (drilled) a little further and my suspicions were realized... It has water in the foam. I'm really excited to get it on the water, and this weekend I'll have pretty much everything to put it together. Ive heard/ read...

Anyone weighed one of these with just turf and pump shoe? I want to figure out how big of a pig mine is.

I did a search but couldn't find the answer I was looking for. After installing a set of light weight couplers, is the performance increase noticeable? It would seem like taking 3/4 of a pound out of the rotating assembly would be useful... but how much? Obviously this is a 'seat of the pants'...

I have a 61x with Factory B-pipe and a FX1 chamber. It runs great, all is well. I know the FX1 pipe is rare/desireable because of limited production, but is there a performance gain over say, an SJ chamber??? And if so, which chamber? Limited or Mod? I've always had this setup so i've never...

Ok, I did a little searching, and what i'm coming up with isn't adding up so here I am, being a knuckle head starting a new thread. Here's what i've found. AC voltage across the two green wires off the lighting coil. It bounced around all over the place 12, 14, 7, 16, etc. That was at idle...

I was considering buying this but the seller stopped answering my texts and won't return any of my calls. Must be a Cali thing. Anyway, maybe someone else can scoop this up, I think its a first gen. http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/boa/2821828841.html I'm selling a Carbon Fiber freestyle -5...

Got a 650 with head, coffman pipe, possibly A/M impeller. Just bought ski, cleaning carb, lost pilot jet. I looked and looked (before I lost it) and could not find a size. Any suggestions?
