    Blaster Renthal bar users....read this

    I'm a long time motocross racer and the only bars I've ever seen break were pro-tapers. That's probably because pro-tapers are all I ever ran. I never cared much for Renthal bars. The pro tapers that broke was due to a crash and was expected. To have bars break like that and not even have...

    Other Grip Glue Sucks, any other ideas?

    In motocross I've found that spraying a bit of spray paint in the grip and on the bar and pushing the grip on works great! The paint dries and bonds the 2 together but it doesn't make a huge mess and no one sees the inside anyways. A lot of guys did safety wire but I hated that stuff it always...

    Missing post dates/times

    Sorry for the confusion. I see now that the issue is only from my work computer. I agree with the comment above, however I've never had good luck trying to inject my logic into the government equation.

    Missing post dates/times

    It's weird - in some threads the date and time the post was submitted shows up in the upper left hand corner of each post right above the avitar. But for some reason in other threads I can't see it. It's no big deal really - but it's nice to know if what you're talking about is still relevant...

    Super Jet De winterized ski wont run right! Need help!

    Everyone says clean the carb which is in most cases what would cause these type of symptoms, but mainly don't overlook the jets. The jets have such small holes that they are very easy to clog up. In some cases I've taken 1 wire out of a wire brush and used that to poke through the crud. I'd...

    Custom/Hybrid Clouse's EME Q8 SXR Build

    Power to weight ratio - what a concept So what would the ideal hull be if one wanted to build a sweet freestyle ski for flat water and occasional trips to the surf?

    Custom/Hybrid Clouse's EME Q8 SXR Build

    only 70 lbs? I was just reading another review of the BOB GEN 2 and I thought I heard his weighed more than a stock superjet hull. I guess I know which direction I'll be going when I start piecing together a build.

    I was obviously kidding! Sarcasm is tough through text. Honestly though. What are the wear and tear parts / spares people carry with them?

    Freestyle Help the Newb

    Alright... I'm the idiot. I know how much water and ice weigh. I wasn't sure about the cooling methods of the engines. These engines are designed differently than what I'm used to looking at (motocross bike), and I'm not mechanic. No one answered any of my legit questions, all I got was...

    So I've done some research and can see maybe buying a haul and taking my time and building my dream machine would be the way to go. the B.O.B. hulls look nice but the problem I'm running into is I can't find any for sale that are used. Can a 701 with an amature really back flip with that...

    Other Missing shipment - what would you do?

    It may still come. If I read this correctly you are the buyer, not the seller? I'd file a claim and do everything you can to either get the product you paid for or your money back. YOUR insurance was $100 on the mailed product right? It's like care insurance. I only keep X amount of...

    Thanks for all the advice!! Why don't freestylers like the square nose? I'm curious what the difference is? The center of gravity or placement of intake grate?? And what the heck is 62t 61 after the carb mean? what is all that?

    Freestyle Help the Newb

    Thanks for all the tips. I'll check out links and start looking stuff up when I get home from work. So the consensus is a SJ or round nose is best for freestyle and flips? Can a stock SJ be flat-water flipped? About the comment on my girly name Pretty Ricky haha - it's just a name. you can...

    Hello everyone, I am new to the site and looking at either building or buying a sweet stand up. The problem is I'm just getting started and don't know what I should get. It sounds like there are many different styles, hulls, and packages to chose from. Any advice or help pointing me in the...
