Yamaha put a dual throttle return spring arrangement on the throttle position sensor. It's overkill. You can simply unhook one of the two (it doesn't matter which), and call it a day. Or, remove the cable drum (2 screws) from the TPS and remove one of the springs, entirely. Note: If you're...

Get ahold of Rubbertoe, here on the X. He's got a SS900 for sale.

Absolutely a must do. Yamaha screwed up the steering on this ski just as they did with the 2008+ boats. The steering cable doesn't have enough throw. So, replacing it with the longer throw cable plus the relocating bracket is something I would do before even putting the ski in the water. The...

Rodney Dangerfield working his new Yamaha Superjet, last weekend. I rode it a couple sessions and I have some initial thoughts. Since purchasing, Rodney's done a few tweaks to his ski: Rideplate Grate Exhaust mod Pole spring RIVA rear sponsons Throttle return spring removal These pics were...

Enabler.

And therein lies the problem. On our local trails, where mopeds are not allowed. And, enforcement is nonexistent... The increase in traffic from mostly inexperienced trail users, has resulted in accelerated wear and damage . Not a fan.

Rumor has it that Kahuna grande is in the market for a mountain moped.

Zzzzzactly. This motor needs to be able to breathe! Hood seal is OEM.

More carbon festoonery. Plus, you know I love drilling holes in sh*t!

This is a build I'm doing for Hassan. He's moved back to Saudi Arabia, but he's back in town for a few weeks. We were going to squeeze in as much water testing as possible, and then this ski, as well as an Edge, would get crated up and shipped. I just finished this build a few months ago...

JetManiac, Watcon, and Highspeed Industries should be able to source these for anyone in need. I am under the gun to get this boat finished up and tested. It's going overseas. I chose to peen the existing countersunk screws, so as to get back to water testing. The boat ran well yesterday...

You're welcome, man. This game we play is filled with enough potential costly heartbreaks, eh? Sh*t like this is inexcusable, and while this was not one of my personal motors that this happened to...it very easily could have been. I'm waiting to hear back from the parties involved. But...

OEM carbs from Mikuni have black screws that are long enough, so that they protrude out the opposing side of the throttle shaft. This allows for proper peening or staking of threads, so that the screw(s) cannot backout , nor be removed without grinding the footing of the screw off. These...

I've been asked to post up a public service announcement. Do yourself a favor , and take a minute to check your carb throttle plate screws. They should be tight obviously, but more importantly, the footing of the screw should be peened, so that screws cannot backout and go through your motor...

No refoam. I'm leaving the ass end open. It's got a Solas in there now...I'm not sure what pitch it is. Current motor and pump is only temporary as the next phase of Braap enhancement is about to commence.

Big Kahuna?
