    Somebody Talk Me Outta Getting Another Dirt Bike

    And just to get under Edwin's skin buy a two stroke! A WR to me really isn't a true dual sport. I would get another MX bike but for me a woods/street aka a dualie would do. A road bike sucks in the woods and a woods bike sucks on the road. But I think a dual sport WR 450 F would be the...

    Somebody Talk Me Outta Getting Another Dirt Bike

    Keep the ski and buy a second toy! Every time I see an MX or GNCC race on TV or a dirt bike in the back of a truck I miss my old YZ250 more and more. Not that I want my old bike back but a newer YZ 250 or even a 450F. My new plan is to pay off my debt, perhaps sell my 4-wheeler, then go buy...

    Basic Surf Boat Setup

    I had two 500 Rules in a 650 SX once on a custom bracket at the back of the fire wall just like the typical standard aftermarket bracket mounted them. Well I feel two of them was pointless. Those things would air lock all the time. Then one would out pump the other. I have been thinking of...

    Weather Time Machine

    I wouldn't believe it 100%. I checked my birthday last year because I knew it snowed a good bit say 6" plus. Well it said there was 0 percipation... I know it snowed because my local ski resort has a special Wednesday nights and I was going snowboarding hell or high water last year to ride...

    Saving original turf on my Square

    I removed some turf from an old X2 hull I threw away once. Just pulled on it easy and used a razor where it was sticking. I wanted them for a template but ended up giving them away with another X2 hull I sold. If you take your time the turf will come off in one piece and still be in good...

    Auto Trim System idea

    Agreed 100% They are slow moving! I have one from my 1100 ZXi I am parting out. I would rather sell it on eGay for $100 and buy an air cylinder and a tank. Or perhaps a Magura slave cylinder and lever. Not a bad idea, but just don't think it is quite what a stand up rider would want. More...

    Fuel Tank Mod!

    I have a soldering iron airless type plastic welder that I bought to repair my 4-Wheeler plastic. Well those things are a joke. Unless you have the heat exactly right, the exact same plastic filler rod, and weld area/welder tip perfectly clean the weld won't hold. I have never tried a hot air...

    Gaining Gut. Winter Blob mode.

    I am not really adding any weight because I did enough of the last two years. I went from around 175 to 225 in that time frame. Its been on my agenda to lose weight but I moved 5 months ago and now getting ready to move again. The local gym wants you to pay for a whole year for their...

    DALES Bad Attitude CDI?

    I had one on my 1991 Kawasaki 650 SX with a 750 SS in it. I was also running a Jetinetics 3rd gen wheel. Well I did buy it used but it came from a good source. I had way too many problems with that ski to ever know if it was jetting issues or ignition issues. I remember Don 79 TA having...

    300/440/550 32mm Kawi 650 Carb

    The 38 from my 93 and my 40 from my 95 X2's measured 38 and 40 at the bottom. I was going to sell my 40 once and realized it was indeed a 40 not a 38 so i decided to keep it. That ski ran better than a friend's 650 with a 44 SBN. Then again mine was stock = stock jetting and his jetting was FAT!

    What kind of pump cone is this?

    After a few weeks, I check the guy's feedback on eBay I bought the pump cone from. It is indeed from a Skat Track Kawasaki Magnum pump. He had sold one and the buyer had left feedback. The buyer didn't want the second cone... go figure. Then on PWC Today he again sold the whole pump. It was...

    lost another item ebay

    I hate to divulge my secrets but I use www.auctionstealer.com I have also heard of www.auctionsniper.com But it goes back to what speed freak said, you have to bid your max, no more. I got stupid last week and bought both of the 1100 Coffman pipes. They are not even complete as Coffman would...

    300/440/550 Aftermarket X-2 Hull

    Rotation, How much was shipping your hull from SE? I am tempted to buy an aftermarket original style X2 hull from Japan but it already will cost 4k for the hull. Then the shipping, customs fees, and dollar to yen ratio will tack on much more. Makes it not worh it. However if you look at...

    Shred Master vs. other rideplates

    D Ace must be Shredmaster! I remember on PWC Today saying how great the V Plate was... What I stated was it handled almost like a stocker and this was on my almost stock boat. In my opinion, it is not worth the money. I do like the all one piece design. Most people ride in rough water and...

    kawi triples and the x2

    I have that 96 1100 ZXi I was toying with the idea of putting it in an X2. Well this weekend I stripped it down some more to just part the 1100 out and get my initial cost back. Well I pulled all the electrics out of the ski. Holy crap I will have to go back to school and get an Electrical...
