    Modified X2 build (stripped the hull)

    I am debating on buying the materials to make my own hood and ride plate. I want to do it right and use a vacuum pump/bags. The detail is in making the plug perfect before ever thinking of pulling a mold off of it. I am thinking of trying to make my own hood trim piece eventually too. As for...

    B-pipe set up...

    I think a 550 tank is the ticket for you. But I am unsure how well it fits in the hull. I have seen people fit them in there but when I tried my 550 tank in my old spare hull, I believe the battery tray hit it.

    That's where I took the PA one. I may pay and take it again or just be like here's my PA card... I read up on it today at work. You have like 45 days as a visitor or something for AL. I already took a test for PA and got their lisence, once should be enough! That's what great about WV, once...

    Um... better make it West Virginia. All my vehicles still have WV tags ect. PA wanted me to do the same when I moved there. Good thing I kept everything in WV because I would now be paying twice to get my tags all switched around. I only lived in PA for 6 months. Screw em I say, go ahead...

    I am a wuss, cold water scares me. I have a PA boaters card but YZ told me I have to get one for AL. I will have to study up and take the test.

    Chris Maros' 24-7 Carbon Fiber H20-X Conversion Hood

    As an X2 guy myself these hoods are the only thing making me want to get an SJ. Sure if I was to get another stand up, I would get an SJ. However all the parts I know are kawie parts. Also the cost of new and used SJ's are making me shy away. No offense Yamaha guys but the SJ didn't change...

    Chicken Bone X2travaganza 2008

    You have a hot girl friend or wife I can borrow too? Just kidding. I was talking to YZ250FPilot last night and he said he was up for a P Cola trip. I imagine gilgoneround will head that way too, maybe even SJBrit. For us from Huntsville it is a 6 hour max trip. That is a lot more doable for...

    B-pipe set up...

    I have a FPP 650 Kawie chamber and I have a chamber similiar to the one Vumad has but... the exit is at the stinger instead of being a center bleed type like the one Vumad has. If you look around, WAX had a friend with a yellow X2 which had a 750 engine in it and the stinger exit pipe I was...

    B-pipe set up...

    There was a guy on here once who had one in a 650 SX. All he had to do was make a custom bracket for the pipe mounts and have some tubing bent up so that the pipe/hoses to the waterbox would all line up. If the exhaust manifold three bolt pattern is turned more than a stock 650/750 exhaust...

    daytona x2's ??

    Sorry Jett, i didn't make it to Daytona. Just remember that X2's were around long before Yamaha ever decided to make a ski named after a shark and an X2 was the first to a barell roll too!

    I think some peeps from Huntsville are down. I am looking forward to it since I missed Daytona. Any chance we could use a 4-wheeler on the beach to launch our jet ski trailers with? I don't have a beach cart myself and it looks like there will be a big need for beach carts.

    Probably not anytime soon. I worked up in Tipton, PA and lived in Altoona before I got transfered to Huntsville, Al. I sent Malone an email once on his website and had a mod on PWCToday forward along a message to him for me. No luck though, kind of pissed me off. Came across as if he was too...

    So where did you get the idea to barrel roll the ski yet you stay put? I read that thread last week thinking oh crap someone is going ot pull off the trick I dreamed up... I still think I could do it on an X2 in some surf. Then again I have never ridden surf. I would probably end up busted up.

    You better hope the spill way holds because all that water is heading your way Steve. superslug137, you live in Altoona, PA? Man I lived there this past year June - November 07. Would have been nice to have someone to ride with. You buddies with Malone or ride with him? Oh yeah...

    You guys wanna toss the skis in the lake and see how fast it takes to get the cops called on us? If boats aren't allowed then why do they have a launch on the other side of the lake?
