    One thing is for sure 20-40 years from now no one will be posting about a Ford Maverick truck barn find.

    Are you helping the sport grow? Or watching it die??

    That was at Goldstar park in Wetumpka AL. , it flooded there which is why the sidewalk is underwater , the chain I jumped at the first of the vid is usually about 3ft off the ground , its where service vehicles can enter the park. I would love to copy that vid and get someone to edit the middle...

    Are you helping the sport grow? Or watching it die??

    Part of it looks like the Blair witch project but I didn't shoot the video and I know absolutely nothing about editing so it is what it is , you should probably skip to about 1:25 , I am the one riding the ski. Yes that is a sidewalk and a lamp post , yes I can still ride like that.

    Dual 38 tuning advice

    How about the plastic check valve on the jet cover , if one is damaged it won't run on that cylinder until you can get the rpm high enough to get on the main jet, run into that one before , have you checked the sync on the carbs , have you verified spark with an adjustable spark tester, loose...

    Dual 38 tuning advice

    Have you checked the reeds , they will defiantly cause a bub bub bub when the ski is in the water. I chased a XL1200 all over the place only to find out it was bad reeds the whole time, thing is the reeds looked fine , hold your hand over the carbs with the flame arrestors off, rev it up...

    Steering ball/nut pulled out of nozzle today.

    I bet it's a lot better than when I hooked the steering up backwards on my 650SX fixie, now that was interesting lol .

    SBN 38's for Dual Carb Manifold on 550sx

    ummmm I just answered that , inline mounting means both carb shafts are inline with each other , if you twist both carbs 90 degrees the shaft are now parallel , that is how the Seadoo carbs are mounted. Let me expand on that , that is how the 92-93 twin carbs are mounted , the 94-95 models are...

    SBN 38's for Dual Carb Manifold on 550sx

    You are comparing apples and oranges, those Seadoo carbs don't mount inline like Yamaha 62T carbs do, they mount parallel like the Yamaha XLT80 and 1200 carbs do .

    SBN 38's for Dual Carb Manifold on 550sx

    When I did mine years many ago Hot Products sold a kit, it came with the couplers , a drilling guide , a drill bit and a tap , you drilled the carb the cable attaches to using the drilling guide and the drill bit , then used the tap to tap the shaft and then the an Allen screw went in with red...

    Flipping couches for fun and profit

    My girlfriend says the same thing , why are you making it so nice , just sell it already , my answer is when it sells I want top dollar for a nicely refurbished ski , the 1998 GTI went for $2300 , it's because it looked and ran like it was supposed to. I can quick flip em but then I have to do...

    Vevor watercraft dolly review

    The biggest difference in these stands and the genuine stands I have here is the tubing size and of course the thickness of the steel tubing , the genuine stands are 1 1/2 galvanized tubing and the Vevor's are 1 1/4" painted steel , I can't measure the tubing thickness on the genuine stand I...

    Market correction on ski prices?

    Gotcha , I believe that is where they picked up the bad reliability rap from and yeah you are right Buick V8 , Oldsmobile and Pontiac also used the same engine with different heads and valve covers .

    Market correction on ski prices?
