    Powerhouse - maybe not so good????

    *sigh* I'd do a 'let me get that for you', but it's probably a bigger pain in the butt then the snicker I'd get is worth. http://www.ehow.com/how_2076723_dispute-paypal-transaction.html

    Ouch! Get well soon. Salt water doesn't feel good in cuts.

    Noticed that my intake grate is M.I.A.

    I switched from the Westcoast grate to the Worx grate and noticed more stability, the back of the ski would sink more and ride on top of the water less, and most turn/skidding turned into carving. Look at spending around $100 though.

    What are stock handlebars made from?

    Thanx guys!!!! I'm going to look into setting up some phat bars. It broke at the start of a turn-sub, of all things. :shrug:

    standing on sides; is this common?

    I never stand on the sides but to toot around. It makes the turning harder and everything becomes based on your balance. IMO, get a longer rideplate.

    Expensive, but it doesn't rust does it?

    What are stock handlebars made from?

    Broke my SJ handlebar this weekend. Third ride out. Looked at the piece of crap, and it looked like pewter. :biggrin: I thought they were aluminum. What's a stronger handlebar then stock? Or better yet, what's the strongest handlebar out there?

    Foam in fuel tank?

    Defoam the bottom half. Why on earth would you have foam in your fuel tank anyways?? That's such a silly idea. It'll get waterlogged and cause the ski to sink.

    300/440/550 JS550 bogging out, seems like water box is full?

    Crashed into what? So does it work except for when pulling some trick sometimes? Hot to touch is OK, as long as you can touch it without burning yourself.

    Foam in fuel tank?

    I think it's to keep the tank from sloshing around... I remember putting gas in a foam cup once. The cup disintegrated within seconds. Never did that again.

    300/440/550 440/550 to 650 conversion...top speed

    Get a couch. They can go up to 80 mph (speed limit set by USCG). Pay careful attention to which ride plate and intake you use as both can reduce top speed.

    Wives/Girlfriends

    Kim was the 1 who first brought up the idea of getting a jetski. She doesn't ride nearly as much as I do. She does like coming to the freerides to talk to the ladies from the X.

    300/440/550 JS550 bogging out, seems like water box is full?

    I've not heard of anyone taking out the waterbox to fix a problem. Doing so will most likely result in decreased engine performance and increased exhaust noise. If you look at newer skis, the side exhaust doesn't really have a hose. The 90+ models more-less all come with rear exhausts. U can...

    300/440/550 JS550 bogging out, seems like water box is full?

    Keep a careful eye on your pipe, waterbox, and engine for excess heat after changing the routing. It should be ok as the water is still all going out the exhaust, just not all being dumped right at the exhaust manifold. You're missing the plate that covers the PTO. Right there is a grease...

    300/440/550 JS550 bogging out, seems like water box is full?

    Look at your engine. It consists of 3 parts (from top to bottom): The head, cylinders, and block. You should see a hose running from the firewall to the cooling jacket around the cylinders (don't remember if the fittings on the cylinders or block). 2 if it's got dual cooling. The water...

    4 stroke vs 2 stroke

    I prefer 2 stroke as the engines are WAY easier to work on. I've rebuilt both types, and the 2-stroke took less then half the time to rebuild. I also like not having to change out oil. I got a tiny 2 stroke 1kw generator and that thing is literally indestructible. It's been run over twice...
