What size PVC are you using for the bunks on the trailer? is that 2"?

Awesome stuff.. This is my first standup too. Been riding semi-couches for a few years (HX) but just took on a standup in September. Was a COMPLETE turnkey restore with upgrades.. so I'll be following this one as to see it from scratch, as there's a rental place about 4 minutes from here that...

@TheBuzzard ahh, that makes sense.. not sure how it cracked, but makes sense it fell, Bc my vent doesn't go up the handlebar. The PO made the tank vent loop up to right under where the the front of the hood latches to the hull. Is that bad? Or should I get it back up to the handlepole? I...

Sorry I forgot to mention scale of size. The whole is like the of the tip of a finger. It's small.

anyone know what this is/where it comes from? It's from an 89 650sx. I took my hood off and went to put the pin in, and one half was laying right in the sill of the hood seal and the other was stuck under where the hood clip sits under the metal bracket. Looks like it tore and now it's in 2...

Sorry for the sidetrack!! I asked a question about the spray paint on the bottom of the sxr, Bc believe it or not, I had I hard time finding that thread! I looked under the user profile for recent activity and couldn't find it!

wow! so 50 something plus pounds worth of waterlogged foam!?!? crazy. funny you mention it because even though my ski is a restore, im not sure if it was ever refoamed...I doubt it.. so, when I actually drove almost 1,000 miles to pick it up, I opted for my 4 cylinder with the hitch hauler...

Hey chixquita banana, hope the build is going well... Question. Do you have any pics of what your other hull bottom turned out like after it dried from the rattle can/krylon touch? I took mine out for the first time since September, AFTER I had completely rolled & tipped the bottom again, and...

How does one extend a steering cable? Don't ou have to just buy a longer one? I never knew you could add an extension on one.

Awesome, THANKS GUYS!

Ok great. Yea one I got it started again, I continued to flush like normal, then shut the flow off and let it run for about 15-20 seconds. If it ran after that "mishap", I should be good to go I assume (?) Thanks for the response!

Hey guys, Finally got a good solid hour of ride time in today. I built a beach cart out of a handtruck and works great. got home, had the ski resting in a nose down/@$$ up position on the cart.. literally, where the nose was on the ground almost and the pump/tail end was up in the air. I...

and, so how did it ride? any hiccups/issues?

Awesome! you guys are right in Orlando?? only about an hour and a half from me on a good day! do you have any smooth, glass-like lakes by you? I actually finally got a GOOD , SOLID 1 hour ride in today, and although chop is "fun" for some, not too fun for a guy who's been riding skis for years...

How much did that bms cart cost you? And are those the original tires or have you replaced them? If so, how much were they and where'd you get them? Looking to get a set of balloon wheels but don't wanna spend $150 a piece. Thanks!

awesome! Man, that guy's got skills.. hey, what size beach tires are you and your buddy using on your carts? I know a lot of the cart sellers use an 18" of a 21" "balloon/sand" tire for actual beach/sand use. I got a set of 20's on the cheap and took it for a test run on the beach WITHOUT the...

cool sounds good.

wow!, tbh, This is THE FIRST MATTE BLACK ski I've ever absolutely loved! do you know the actual paint brand/code your buddy used?

Awesome, I think the fresh carbs are a good way to go for piece of mind. My issue at first was I wasn't sure if it was a carb issue. I thought it was a chalk valve issue, then a tank vent issue, then a tank issue itself due to a recall, then I had found a cracked filler neck, (they were a common...
