Will this mod give more steering throw or just quicker steering response?

I wonder if those bearings worked well? Anyone know the inside and outside diameter of the bearings so I could try a local bearing supplier. I tried to call the canadian bearing place in the post today at 1pm central time and they said they are open between 8am and 5pm but are closed now.

Interesting. I've never left my fx sit at the dock before. I wonder if the superjet (the one the filled with water) has the same issue.

You are kidding right?

The battery is in the same place on my fx-1 and it is level. I do have a b-pipe as well. I'm not sure why a b-pipe vs stock would make a difference. Does the water sit in the pipe on the right side?

Hmm. an 07 for 3500 would be a good deal. I'd say even 4000 would be ok. I just got my 01 for $3000 with quite a bit of basic mods (b-pipe, stainless impeller, ignition module, flame arrestors, extended ride plate, toploader intake grate, wider handlebars, aluminum throttle lever, milled head...

Really? Why is that? Most of the weight in the engine bay appears to be on the left side (engine, pipe). Thanks for the prompt response.

Ok... What is a scupper? Would a bond line be somewhere that they put two pieces of hull together? Thanks for your input.

I just purchased an 01 superjet about a week ago. I noticed that it tilts a bit to the right in the water. I'd say about 2 inches more than the left. I figured it was due to some water being in the hull. I tested it today while the engine bay was completely dry and it still tilts a bit. Any...

I think you could probably talk a dealer into giving you a brand new 09 for $5500 out the door. If you have that much to spend you might want to buy new. That way you could finance if you wanted too. I'm not sure if you really want the pre 08 design or the 08/09 design though. It sounds...

I spent 10 minutes to get about a 1/2 an inch off of goo using the goo gone stuff. Then I took a small spray of carb cleaner and it all came off in one or two swipes. Do it quickly and no paint comes off. I had some water ready to rinse it a bit. I did this on some big stickers (about 2 feet...

hmm. Where is the factory bilge located. I've noticed a couple of times when I latched my hood shut it never really latched completly and took on water. I now close it while in the open position and pull up to make sure it latched before moving it over to the lock position. So far no water after...

Ok I just found out what can chip the paint of a superjet. Tying the ski to a dock with metal under the walkway. Now I have some matching chips on the other side of the ski (just the hood though). Can I just buy a different, better, hood?

Man does this superjet hook up. I made so many awesome saves today do to the incredible hook up.

ok sweet. I guess I got the right pipe on then, the factory "b" pipe.

Does an 01 superjet need a different steering (quicksteer) setup too?

I just bought an 01 100% freshwater superjet today for $3000. It's in good condition with a milled head, flame arrestors, factory b pipe (wet pipe not dry, not sure if dry would be lots better or not, anyone know how much hp each gives?), wider handlebar, nicer aluminum throttle lever, top...

Anybody know the hp gains with the different types of b pipe (limited, dry)? How about the HP curve, where do the gains come in? Where does it lose power over stock?

Does anyone know where to get the bearings (bulk head around the 900zxi driveshaft) for the fx-1 kawi 650 pump conversion? Special said that some have found them.

Wow that was an awesome video. I thought getting my butt dragged was good. Jacobs got his entire body including his head under at one point. Crazy. It's time to try and learn to turn like those guys.
