yeap.

na. I'll buy it.

I'll buy it. =]

I just bought bike cables that are stainless.

man, I took everything off that TS. The exhaust outlet is the outlet from the alumumum waterbox, the bolts holding it in are the large headed bolts from the rubber floor matting. And yes I will take parts off your vacuum cleaner to make it work. (actually carterB.'s vacuum cleaner...

hrmm... I dunno what its like to change out of a cold wetsuit. Sorry northern guys. :wavey:

I dont get it.... its a terry cloth poncho? Do you ride in it?

Damn. You do your turf all pretty. I still cant get good bends on the footholds.

Didn't get much done today. I cut up and dumped all the other skis in my yard this morning as well as their miscellaneous parts. Then I spent most of the time perusing through bike stores looking for stuff to complete the trim. Got a major hook up, and ended up buying a kickass lever, stainless...

they both should. I just got my hands on a fx1 limited chamber. It was all I could find.

me too... It just probably wont be me on it doing it. Ive never had a working superjet when I go to the beach. I'm sure as hell gonna try though. I have a feeling I'm going to need a second (or third) set of 550 motor mounts for daytona.... lol.

Yea I would have liked one of those as well. Never seen the back side of one so Im not sure if it would have fit, but that was the idea I was going for. I ended up just kinda copying legdrags one. So I'm gonna sell mine for $150 now.

Scientist. Thanks on the offer, I ended up just welding up my own last night. Its only a tad over 1 3/4", but Its all I could find. Hopefully it wont choke up the motor to much. I would have prefered a rubber cover but this is what I get. I tried to make it as low profile as...

Uh... Id take the 125 anyday.... I think that was an aweful analogy. And if thats actually what you meant I think Harry needs to go back to the drawing board.

so... I got a bit giddy in this video but here it is... first fire up. Video running Its soo loud. My ears are ringing just from that 3 second run. The head pipe acts as a trumpet and makes it killer. Hopefully my limited chamber will show up tomorrow.

Hooked up all my water lines and figure'd out how to mount the electronics and cut up some brackets. Turned out decent, I'm going to go back over them and clean them up a bit more however. I had to rearrange the interior wiring of the cluttered ebox so stator wires and solinoid leads would be...

Well ive only spent about $300. And most of that was in resin and foam. I'm really just conglomerating parts. Sure it may be just like an FX1. But its my fx1 that I built, and sometimes I prefer building the ski rather than riding it. I think the whole reason I started this is I finished...

thanks mike. I appreciate it. 200 views since I posted this and only once comment. I'm surprised. Seems to me that I'm the first person to put a 701 in a 550 too.... Oh well. Guess I'm gonna go start assembling the rest of the ski. I have a court date tomorrow for "street...

No, the coupler had symmetrical divits in it at those 6 points in that exact size from the casting process. It may be slightly off, but not enough to ever make a difference. Perhaps fractions of a gram. BUT ON TO BIG NEWS! LADIES AND GENTLEMEN. Here it is the moment you've all been...

Hurray for a lighten'ed conversion coupler. The coupler finally arrived today and I got handy with my drill press. Took off a good amount of weight from the circumference. Unfortunately I painted the bottom deck this morning and its not dry enough to flip the hull.... so no motor work...
