my bother-in-law finally got the ski painted... so we started putting it back together. here she is... Gonna put black diamond moulded hydro-turf on it and the handle pole is black

that's so cool...

yeah, Newman's (now Proformance1's) 2005 SJ cracked at the bulkhead on the bottom of the ski... within the 1st month or so of riding it. After comparing his '05 to my '01 SJ we noticed that the hull was much thinner than my '01. He reinforced the S##t out of it and it's been good since. you...

LOL... sorry bro...

April 23rd this year - Proformance1 and I hit our first ride of the season. Water temp - 42 degrees, air temp in the 50's. 25 minutes into our ride and i lose power about a mile off shore. Brian pulls me back to shore on his SXR - no tow rope. super long ride. My feet were numb, and I was...

i put two large zip ties around the body of the bilge pump... one low and one high. then I take another large zip tie and put it through the two zip ties and route it around the bulkhead fitting on the battery side of the ski. Then i take another large zip tie and route that one around the...

zip ties all the way. I've never had any stay in place with just epoxy or glue.

cool video bro...

i had to make some pretty extreme carb spec changes but boy did it make a difference. started off with a 140 main jet, 120 pilot jet, 2.5 n/s with a 65 gram spring - very low pop off I now run a 122.5 main jet, 120 pilot jet, 2.0 n/s with a 95 gram spring. much better now.

once i get totally underwater i let off the gas until the ski starts heading back up... then i get back on it to ride out... most of the time.

there are a few things to consider: 1 - you could be running out of air. This does happen if you are under too long 2 - you could be ingesting water. I recently went back to OEM style air box and this made a huge difference. 3 - your carbs may not be jetted right. After building my...

interesting... i guess we'll have to just see what happens....

i get 13 mpg normally, about 10 towing my trailer.

yup... very true... both my round noses are slightly different in fit. I have a piece of rubber epoxied to the gas tanks to keep the pipe from rubbing. And, I use an angle grinder to trim off a slight bit of the front part of the pipe side engine cradle to keep the chamber from rubbing...

niiiiiiiiiice!!!

Saw a show on Fuel TV about that.... pretty cool.

when i built my '98 over this past winter i had it all apart to reinforce the hull. I decided to paint it while i had it empty. I used Rust-o-leum marine topside paint. brushed on, two coats. It's holding up quite well... http://www.rustoleum.com/CBGProduct.asp?pid=4

been running OEM reeds in my '01 superjet since new, not a problem. As far as AM reeds go - been running VF II's in my other superjet for a couple of years now without any problems. Took off the intake manifold yesterday for some other work and they still look like new.

That sucks bro! I ordered a new steering cable and a few other parts from AJS and had it in my hand within a week. I found DGY Motorsports to be quite good. Good communition, decent prices and fast shipping, for the most part. They reply back right away if something is out of stock...
