    Might go single

    I'm running a single Novi 46 on my 760 and single Novi 48 on my 860. I'm quite content with it and everyone who has ridden it so far is shocked by pull, throughout the entire range. I'm not sure about the 61X setup, as I recall Chuckie (Team Scream) ementioning that the benefit of the 62T is...

    4lb wall-mart battery?

    I've been running a 6 pound Odyssey PC310 for this season in my SJ w/Advent and so far, so good. It has less reserve and cranking amps than a PC625, but I can't complain, although I would not expect it to do well with total loss. Compare the specs of the PC310 with the Walmart battery and if...

    Pat Bogart, Awesome Host, as Always

    I want to thank Pat for inviting me to spend the day with him and friends on Tarpon Lake yesterday. It was great riding with and learning from him and Johnny Havell. All of the other Bogart crew are great guys to hang with too. I really wish I could spend more time down here in FL. If anyone...

    Dual 48mm Novi Maxiflows...couple of questions

    Yes, if you have inside spreaders/calipers you can reach down, set them, then measure on a ruler/gauge.

    Dual 48mm Novi Maxiflows...couple of questions

    That was my point. You also need to check a little deeper in the body. I know this because I bought a used set of what was supposed to be triple 48's, but turned out to be 46's.

    Dual 48mm Novi Maxiflows...couple of questions

    Matt_E, also check the main bore diameter with an inside caliper if you have access to it. I think they may be 46's. SUPERTUNE gave me a tip that when looking at 46 and 48 Novis side by side, the 48's have a very shallow recess across from the D booster. In the picture yours appears to still...

    Limits of Compresion and Fuel !

    Sorry Pete, I pointed out in my last post that it might be possible in some motors, but if you don't know for sure with your brother inlaw's motor who did the work and if they considered squish, etc. then you should not run it. There is a guy in Wall, NJ who has really good pricing on VP...

    Limits of Compresion and Fuel !

    I'm running close to 220psi and 100 Low Lead on my ADA and Pat Bogart similar on his Lamey. As Chuckie (Team Scream) pointed out in a separate post, it has a lot to do with the dome machining which changes the squish behavior and can allow for higher than typical compressions to be run. Here's...

    I must have gotten the special "non-stick" turf

    Wolf Child, I looked throught the thread and perceived that you may not be sanding the surface of the turf with 36 or 60 grit. I think that is whatthe previous poster was possibly referring to regarding driving cvontaminats into it. Both the painted/glass surface as well as the turf need to be...

    looks like JR's old place has new ppl in it?

    Mark didn't steal the client list. It came with the business partnership. The accusations and assumptions with both, Mark and Paul should be minimized to be fair to both. Like Paul mentioned in his post, there are lawyers involved and this is a very difficult situation.

    looks like JR's old place has new ppl in it?

    First of all, congratulations to both Paul and Mark on their new starts. I know both and they both have talent and passion for their sport and they will both be successful if we all have an open mind and a bit of forgiveness for anything that has occurred in the past. I too, think that if you...

    yamaha girdle hardware

    Yes, the ADA ones do pick up a little surface corrosion over time. Mine are about four years old and have just recently begun to get some some slight surface oxidation, but nothing that can't be polished out. No real rust (reddish color) though.

    yamaha girdle hardware

    I have mentioned this before. I don't know what grade of stainless the ADA studs are, but they are fairly magnetic, which likely allows the strength to torque them, so keep that in mind.

    Xmetal pole steering stop..whats up??

    No I didn't. That would have made the tab I have need to come back even more than 3/4," right? Here's a picture of the mod to the ball mount tab (not with the ski right now to take a better picture).

    Xmetal pole steering stop..whats up??

    On mine, on my Watercraft Factory hull (should be same as stock) on my steering nozzle, I had to make a (about) 3/4" x 3/4" tab, tap it for the steering ball, and tap it to mount to the standard ball mounting location to move the steering ball mounting location back about 3/4" to be able to get...

    engine bolts

    I would definitely buy the eight nickel-plated OEM case bolts from Yamaha to ensure that they can sustain the torque. For the intake, because it is low-torque, you will hav eno problem using off-the-shelf stainless M6 bolts. I would be more comfortable with OEM for the head bolts as well...

    engine bolts

    The 6's and 8's on metric bolts have perplexed me too. The 8 is found on a lot of the 6mm threaded bolts, and they are clearly not grade 8. For example, the OEM zinc plated bolts that hold on the damper shroud. The OEM Yamaha case bolts are nickel plated (chrome-like) and have high strength...

    Yamaha 62T/61X Displacement vs. Bore/Stroke Combinations

    I was originally going to do that, but the "Manage Attachments" function does not allow .xls file extensions. If someone can tell me how/where to post it I will.

    Yamaha 62T/61X Displacement vs. Bore/Stroke Combinations

    I keep an Excel spread sheet that takes bore and stroke as variables and calculates displacement in ccs. Here it is. There is a lot to be learned from this. First of all, look at the trends. Each 1mm increment of bore gives a lot more increase in displacement than a 1mm increase in stroke...

    My Team Scream Built ADA 860

    I really think the single will work fine. I may lose a little on top speed, but I do have the throttle response. I am not disappointed. Also, the ATP intake has significantly larger (cross section) runners than the only other option, the Riva 650 Kawi conversion intake. I have an M16...
