Doing some quick searching on here this seems to occur more often then one would think with almost identical outcomes. I least I have the trusty Yamaha 701 to fall back on.

It let go when I gave it a quick burst at full throttle. I am not sure what the ski was running for RPMs with the TBM setup. It has a TBM Head, Domes, and B pipe, V force reeds with angled spacers, Tau Ceti FAs, slight timing advance (no other engine mods) other then carb jetting. It was the...

The doc said the cut went sideways under the skin, almost like a fish fillet. He was able to stick his finger in the cut sideways past his middle knuckle. The worst was that while it healed it kept pulling the skin back off the bone to the side of the actual cut.

Here is the leftovers of my TBM Limited SXR after the back cylinder rod let go. Not sure of the cause but there was enought pressure or impact to push the spark plug out of the head when it happened. Final tally: broke rod/bent crank, destroyed V Force reed cage and petals, chipped piston...

Here is some pics of the carnage to my leg from the last ride I had this fall. The ski faired a little better, only bending the steering cable and losing one of the back corner "bumpers". I guess the trick is to not let the ski land on you in the surf. Not a bad scar though for a shin digger...

How about for getting the fuel into the carbs? With the Full Spectrums there is no choke to remove and replace with the barbs.

I searched the threads and just kind of confused myself. So looking for clarification. I have dual Full Spectrum Carbs with an external fuel pump. I only have one fuel line from the tank (what use to be the reserve) feeding the fuel pump with dual lines from the pump, one to each carb. There...

This is is shout out and thanks to all the members of the 615 that welcomed me and made a great riding experience. Between all the tow backs, parts, gas runs and advice the riding would not have been possible without all of you. Hopefully I will be traveling to that area once in awhile and can...

bump, anybody????

I will be back this weekend and got the ski done. Anyone riding or going to make the trip on the 6th of April (Sunday)?

I like that WolfChild. If garage space was not going to be an issue at the house I am moving to that would be the way to go. However, the enclosed trailer is going to act as a "quasi" garage for me. I could incorporate the same system though to load the enclosed trailer.

I have not decided yet but think the barn door style would be the best. I want to be able to use the trailer as permanent storage with room for tool box and be able to move around and work on skis. The biggest issue is would be loading and unloading by myself. I have a few ideas from simply...

Looking to switch to an enclosed trailer. I was wondering if anyone has some good ideas for making one jet ski friendly. I would like to fit three standups (2SJ's, SXR). With room in the front for tools, beach cart, shelves, storage or whatever. It would be best if loading and unloading can...

The little black rubber nose cone on my impeller (Skat Trak) keeps coming off the impeller end and sliding around on the drive shaft, what effects does this cause? Will this cause larger problems later? What is the easiest fix?

Quick question for anyone wanting to answer and I am sure there is a lot of opinion out there on it. My 701 is running 185 psi in both cyl's. Is there any reason to go to an aftermarket head girdled or ungirlded if I want to keep running pump gas? The stock head was shaved (don't...

Any ideas on this one?

Developed a problem today on my 97 SJ. After getting it upside down in the water I tried to restart it. After several 15 second starting attempts the battery started to die right when the ski was starting to fire back up. The next time I pressed the start button nothing happened. I released...

Placement is completely based on the state, but 3" block letters that contrast and are visible on both sides of the hull are pretty much standard. denniskirk.com has a bunch of differant colors and styles. However, I do not run the standard set by my state on any of my skis and have never...

By the pictures above which one should I be checking for? 61X or 62T stator/coils?

Checked with some of the Hot Product dealers. They are quoting prices of 150-170 plus shipping for the two coils together. I know I can find a complete stator for cheaper (I hope!).
