Totals? So, how many does that make? If you read through this whole thread, thats alot of FX-1's:bump:

Pump wedge I have two-both for kawi 650 pumps. One in the FX-1, one goin in the X-2. The change you get from just a wedge is barely noticeable compared to stock.

Stoyer 3rd I stand corrected.

Stoyer lost his ski.... he ended up 4th. the real show was the staging area at the put in. 3-4 successive backflips (in practice) freestylefreak placed 4th or 5th in amateur on Saturday!!!! Parrdaddy made a good showing!!!

addiction Maybe we can ask the prez to appoint x hacking czar to protect our precious forum.... for without it the world will spiral out of control:shooter3:

Reg numbers I just got mine from Dubs Chops from right here on the x and had him make some extra other decals as well. Very good quality, and quite affordable

sx rattle This rattle is normal out of the water. Run the piss out of it. IDK rpm max

Bought an inke grate for my FX-1 From weston. The part was as advertised. Thanks Weston.

More like a v-8 into a Citation or other old crappy midsize car. The Chevette reference would be more like an 1100 into a 300 hull. Hey! There you go! A 25 MPH ride-on water pump/fuel tester

650sx/x-2 conv It may be unpopular, but I vote SX. Here's why: Bottom end sux in stock form SX is notoriously sluggish/heavy X-2 has a nightmare for an engine bay Drawbacks are: 45 mph max "stable" speed Added weight on an already heavy ski Devil in the details If built for...

top loader FX-1 grates will fit after the 140 kaw conversion, if you do the 144 SJ conversion, SJ parts must be used. FX-1 grates are harder to find. It's why I started this thread

650 pump Jinx is exactly right. Cavitation can be minimized by rider position. If you master the FX-1 w/ the stock pump, when you do an upgrade, the payoff will be sweeter. Your toploader is definitely helping w/ the cavitation, but the pump upgrade is night and day. Search the forums for...

Right I think you have a handle on that comparison. When you build a competative ski 20K is a no-brainer. I couldn't begin to tell you what is being done out there. I like a strong, light(relative), SUPER-DEPENDABLE ski, as frequent repairs are not in my budget! If riding on "rails" is what you...

08 sj / fx1 I ride a 94 FX-1 My Brother rides a 08 SJ He loves my boat ( $2500 invested ) His is too much for me ( $20k+ Invested ) His complaint about his boat is that it won't "slide" My complaint about his boat is that it takes an extreme athlete to fully utilize all the...

I want in. I just wanted to be part of the world's longest thread. Put me down for two of 'em when they are ready for public consumption. One for my X-2, one for my FX-1. it would be nice to be the fastest in the 615. (for once) I'm sure if it can be green in some way, I can get the Gov't to...

Even more so. The 08 SJ has race inspired factory changes to the bottom that lends itself way more toward racing than freestyle. That being said, the FX-1 set a record for buoy course when it came out as a factory standup.(I believe) This was when it was competing with Kaw 750 & 701 SJ. There is...

I do ride "off season" but it's more for keeping muscle memory than anything else. Not counting Daytona, of course. Cold water sux. Unless it's in a river below a dam thats generating. Then it's wetsuit in July!:silly:

You're right! mods are for the "off season!"

I disagree. Every new mod comes with it's own new learning curve. If you are sure you will stay on FX-1 then mod the crap out of it. I don't think you have to suffer through crazy cavitation and "sucks in surf" syndrome- just mod the pump immediately! All you learn w/ a 122 mm pump is that you...
