i would be to worried about the extinguisher bursting inside my engine compartment. I like the SN case idea

typically the foam is dry up high and wet down low. So 2-part up top is a good solution in most cases. I did all pink foam though b/c i wanted to make my own footholds...otherwise i would have done 2-part up top to. I used some 80-20 fastners and glassed them in (you could use a wing nut or...

same here, sandblasting did not pit the chamber, the headpipe however had some spots where there was imperfections in the casting surface. I bought one of those 3M headlight renewal/polishing kits at menards, and went to town with it after blasting it. Turned out nice, not perfect but should...

i blocked my passages off and sandblasted it. Then polished it...there are minor blemished in the casing and you will get some little pin hole looking craters. Its really hard to get the inside of the curl. Someone may have a good chemical cleaner that would make the job easier though

No. Like previously mentioned, cops will be on you like flies on schit. Only time you can launch from the beach is when swim bouys are not out (so early spring and late fall only). You are not even allowed to launch and push your ski out past the swim bouys during the summer. Basically, if...

good advice, I have a sheet of 10mm padding to go in there as well and will help tune fit so I can open the holds a lot more. Still not sure which I will go with, I think I would rather fall out of the tray a couple times rather than have 1 time where I can't get out and break a leg. Its...

I cut the superjet back 2.5 inches. Refoamed and shaping my foothholds now, torn between styles. Both feel comfortable. #1) curls out further over the foot. More secure. Problem is it can be harder to get out quick. #2) Keeps the tray for clear (I plan on putting a trench on the left...

is there a way to edit a title of a post? I can edit the content, but not the title.

My b-pipe chamber and headpipe seems to have a lot of carbon build up on the insides, should I clean this out? or is that a waste of time. ... I did run my pipe cooler this year than in the past.

what kind of gas tank is that? looks nice....any other pics?

that would be sweet! I like the stock look more and more. Especially like that fx-1 with the mid 70's lime green 550/400 paint scheme...but it has a triple. The 88' 550's that were red white and blue i think are way cool! Sleeper skis are bada$$

what is up with the nasty foot fungus ads?!? ....nothing like a big picture of nasty when you open up a thread! Hotties are not ok, but pics of your nasty fungus or rash is...

what is the story behind the footholds matt? Can you post another picture?

thats my first jet ski! bought it when I was 14, that was my first paint job...the back end has a checkerd flag breaking apart.

only thing better than ramps...is rapids!!! heck yeah!

get in deeper water and flop one without to much height...its not bad after you do it once. I also found that i got the nose further around on flips that were off axis. make sure you look were you want to go.... First time i did, all i saw was blue sky then splat b/c i didn't spot my landing...

here is my permanent cheap tow loop design. Requires 1 thick washer and 1 foot of rope. This way you can stuff the rope through the bow eyelet and you can remove it easy when you want tie it to the trailer.

You can definitely use polyester resin on the fx1, but you get what you pay for. Epoxy resin has a better secondary bonding strength than polyester. Plus polyester resin fumes are terrible compared to epoxy

looks good! im am taking 2.5 off mine right now as well ...all the cool kids are doing it. Curious if there was a reason you didn't trim the bond rail down in the back? Are you planning on leaving the ride plate long for pump protection in surf?

that sucks...im not an online cowboy.. delete thread, sorry, had a good video! BOO!!!!! Maybe i can email it to someone and have them upload? See video below! THANKS TUMBLINGTWERP!!!!
