I recently heard from the Wamilton's guys that 93 octane mixed 40:1 (instead of 60:1) is best for the stock 800 because it should actually run a little richer than it comes from the factory. 93 octane is also good because stored gasoline drops in octane with every month stored.

I ended up cutting a large "D" that goes from the stock bend (where it starts to get flat across the bottom) and the top of the "D" is flush with the end of the nozzle. It really helps a lot making the ski more "squirrely" when riding freestyle/freeride but it still locks up real good in...

I ended up blocking the front hole with shiny aluminum HVAC tape. This tape sticks and molds really well and doesn't hold water like other tapes. Then I dremeled and cut out all the inside foam blocks on the underside of my hood and also cut the opening that Zerfman34 talks about above. Then I...

Ski: 2004 Kawi SXR 800 I want to install an R&D Exaust sleeve ("exhaust power sleeve") and want to know if I have to remove part of the exhaust? When looking down at the engine bay the gas tank is to the right and the engine to the left. Does the part of the exhaust that comes up from the...

I'm getting ready to add the Eric Malone footholds to my SXR and I won't be adding any extra foam. Check out Team Extreme's foothold install video by Googling it.

I had an 88 JS650sx and when I got it it had been sitting on a beach at Lake Conway for at least 4 years (uncovered) and didn't run. I got it running and kept it for a few years, rode it all the time and I've since sold it. I don't necesarily enjoy working on skis (especially others) but I'd...

What's it take to ride with you guys in Winter Park?

Where you at in Orlando?

Good points guys, thanks for the comparison of how it doesn't really affect the performance of the engine when you block off the opening.

Sweeeet. That's what I was hoping for... nice, detailed pics. Very nice man. Thank you. PS: the middle picture looks like you have a couple of oyster shells sitting in your hood. hehe

Gotcha, so it's probably good for freestyle too.

Searching these forums can be painstaking... so I decided to start a new one about one topic - hood mods. What has everyone done for [home made] hood mods in the way of: -straps? -air intake block off? -finger holds on the outside of the hood? -reducing weight? Most of these things can be...

Thanks man!!! That helps A LOT! Nice vids too, sweet rolls!

What is this suppose to help with?

Does anyone have an electronic version of a shop / owner's manual for the 2004 800 sxr? Looking to get to know my ski real well, and before I take her apart, I want to find out what's inside and what the stock specs are for the ski. Also, what does everyone recommend for gas octane for a...
