    I gave up. I caved in. I'm almost 40 and can finally feel it.

    6 Months later and still taking them daily. I can high step it in the garage, and not bang my shins. No more cracking in my knees when I squat below 90. Come on up and help me fix cars in February on sub 30 degree day, after doing a 9 hour shift at a computer. Oh yeah I start the day...

    Phazer mod sleds

    Our trails opened up over the weekend. I'm so used to wide open jet ski waters. Going 45mph down a trail feels like a wooded tunnel.

    Trial by fire (or maybe sunken in water?) Newbie JS550 build

    I found this manual to be a great history lesson on 550s, when I got mine back in 2004. It goes over everything you can do to a 550. Performance Jet Ski Manual I have a 550 gas tank sitting here with metal pickups. You can have it if you pay the shipping costs. I'm across the river.

    Trial by fire (or maybe sunken in water?) Newbie JS550 build

    Read up on SMC and how to fiberglass or repair it. More less you need bare SMC and Epoxy resin, polyester resin won't stick. I'd drill a hole at the end of that crack to stop it.

    What killed the forum? How can it be revived?

    Not sure about your ride groups, but mine all got old. Careers, marriage, kids, and becoming lame are the top excuses. No time to ride, let alone post on forums....They're all busy on social media though, posting lawn mowing videos and sharing Karen memes. It's a weird world we live in when...

    ported engine theory. do I suck or does it suck?

    I propped down on my SXR, it moved the hit to a lower speed. This made chasing buoys more fun, since I was on the pipe before the apex. I run a Wet pipe and also opened my middle screw a tad.
