    Single carb vs dual

    Hmm... I wonder why? If you spent 7k on a motor, why would you limit yourself with a single carb? Fuel economy on a 1000cc motor?

    Single carb vs dual

    http://www.1728.org/flowrate.htm Using a velocity of 10 feet per second, these calculations were found (I don't know what the true velocity would be, nor do I know how to figure it out). Single 38: 7.5940 cfm Dual 38: 15.188 cfm Single 48: 11.687 cfm The very basic math suggests that dual 38s...

    Jump landing question

    The area under the tank / nose will get soft and fail also, I've had two of them come apart there, and one sank.

    Letting fellow riders try your FX1

    That was one of my favorite parts about owning an FX1 (other than how awesome it was to toss it around).

    FX-1 need a cover for my FX1

    RN covers are perfect fit - 550 covers will stretch and fit, but the Slippery covers are awesome and last for YEARS... solid covers. http://www.slipperywetsuits.com/products/?productId=79555

    EME Micro Build

    Watching the Iceman ride the Micro in Parker was impressive. He is a fairly big dude on a tiny ski... and can throw it around well.

    750 sxi spark issue help please

    Replace the coil. My 750 was doing the same exact thing. I've got a complete e-box from a 750ssxi if you need.

    Running like crap now, but all of a sudden and don't know why.

    If it tried to run away, you might have a pulse signal issue - the pressure test is a good idea.

    Single vs dual carbs?

    You've got it right. Power output can be debated, some say their single 48mm can hit as hard as dual 44's (or bigger), but that's so subjective that it's not really fair to compare without swapping out carbs on the exact same ski and doing an apples to apples comparison, and I've yet to see...

    Custom/Hybrid SpaceCowboy's EME Aerial 8 Build

    I used 3 layers of turf on the back of my e-box, then ran bolts through the firewall/bulkhead and just tightened it down, fits fine, and is tucked back as far as it will go.

    Running like crap now, but all of a sudden and don't know why.

    I did a ton of work like that once only to find it was a bad plug... but you've checked and replaced those. Have you blown all the fuel lines clear to ensure no blockage and no leaks / cracks?

    Pole TRASHED in Oceanside Waves

    Just make sure you have a limiting rope if you went with an aluminum pole. I split the nose and broke the handle pole bracket of my 750 on a bad landing at Grayland.
