I have an 84 JS 550 affectionately known as "The Short Bus". As of this moment the only real money I have in this ski is the battery. it's always run well although there have been intermittent problems, Usually revolving around fuel mixture or dead batteries. nothing that ever required...

Holy Freaking God!!!!! :eek2: :brap: You ARE the man. Nice job. :bow28:

I dont think I can make it. I still havent sorted out my lack of spark issue.

COOL, so I'm not the only one that thought of that. Thanx for the link.

I had an idea this evening and figured before I putt too much time, money and effort into exploring the possibilities, I'd run it by you guys. First off. There is the running debate between footholds vs. Straps. That, coupled with the argument of the footholds giving a wider platform and...

yeak, the lakes mess me up too. I miss the ocean.

I feel just the opposite. In surf stance I can weight my feet differently to make the ski do/go where I want more efficiently. planting me feet to the rear only seems to give me an advantage when bringing the ski nose up. Maybe it's from all the years of waterskiing/surfing etc. it's just...

you dont say?!?!?! I've been playing with a ski with foot holds (mine has lifters) and I'm not sold on them yet. I actually like the lifters in most cases. I ride surf stance. I cant just stand in the back of my tray porpoiseing away.

I thought that was the ONLY attitude. you mean there are others?:spank:

In other words: IF I were to get an SJ or and SXR that were stock (or new) what areas would need to be reinforced straight away to avoid trouble down the road. I'm more interesed in making a bomb proof ski than anything else. This will be a free ride ski in every sense of the word. it will...

so you could puss out an resell it...DUH!:poke:

swap it out with a pink one. That should be more to your liking.:cheer2:

That sux for sure, Casey. will homeowners insurance cover any of it perhaps?

things that make you go hmmmmmmm........

lets just say I smell something and it aint premix.

I thought I saw one some where in Iowa or some place around there. maybe it was on Eghay

Keep looking. there are some nice RN in the FS forum for not much more money that the guy with the beat up RN. And they even have some mods.
