    fx-1 pricing?

    Bring a scale if you are concerned - you can weigh it vs. the listed weight... but it's an old Yamaha, it'll have water in it.

    fx-1 pricing?

    I'm pretty sure that Tom21 makes a carbon or glass rideplate also...

    How many post do you need to PM?

    Keep going... it might be a glitch.

    Mixing Fuel Octanes

    What is the formula to calculate octane on mixed fuels? Example: 4/1 with 91/100ll, would you do (4x91 + 100) / 5 = 92.8, or is it more complex than that?

    fx-1 pricing?

    There is a guy in CA that has several for sale - one was fully built for $2800, sick custom paint and lots of good parts... and he had a couple stock ones too...

    fx-1 pricing?

    Looks like I gave mine away at 1600.00... it's in good hands though.

    Super Jet New SN SJ Owner - Whats up with the wavy hull?

    Filler does not mean bondo... filler - fairing filler, micro-bubbles, etc... since we are in a forum about jet skis, I would hope that would be self evident, but apparently not.

    Super Jet New SN SJ Owner - Whats up with the wavy hull?

    Spend a little time on it - but don't fill the big one on each side - that will be too much filler. I got Brad's pretty straight with some blocking on the original material and a decent 2 coat primer job. Those big dips drive me banana's though. Autobody type perfection is a hard thing to let...

    Custom/Hybrid EME Q8/Aerial 8/Micro/Roid discussion thread

    Great pics! What's everyone running? My ski is a 750 build - pump to engine. I've got some plans for a bigger engine if I ever pull the trigger....

    91' 550 pipe

    Just buy a half pipe. Best bang for the buck on a ski with that engine.

    FX-1 Thanks uncle bob! Fx1 time

    Anything under the turf on this thing is rock solid - that is what I finished up on this build - the deck is super beefed up, so no worries there, and the footholds were covered with an additional layer of glass after I picked it up from Andy.

    Tore down the FX1 tonight - fixing the water intrusion issue - should be tight as a drum now, fingers crossed... just waiting for the sealant to dry.

    Ski on back of my boat

    I wouldn't do a black boat out here in the AZ sun... too hot to sit on. Maybe when the Q gets a makeover I could match it up to the boat though.

    Ski on back of my boat

    I'd love to see how that works out after a season of riding / boating.

    3... 2... 1... splash. Major body English is the only thing that keeps me on at WFO... and that fails me sometimes too. The 1100sxr was a blast though! I kind of want to build one of those.

    The best reading I got on my GPS was 48.6, but I still can barely hang on that fast, she's... shall we say, skittery?

    FX-1 Thanks uncle bob! Fx1 time

    Nah Robert, the b-pipe is earmarked for you. I don't think I'll be dragging the Q as much with the bigger motor, but we'll see. The Q is hard to get going in a straight line off the gate...

    846 - DASA stock stroke PV - 1st bore goes to 865, 2nd bore is 885. That sucks that ASU won't play... but pops should pony up so you can live in the sun! Don't you guys have like 50 rental houses down here? He needs you to be the rental manager anyway!

    FX-1 Thanks uncle bob! Fx1 time

    I'm switching to all Yamaha right now, it'll be tougher to blow them up. And no, you can't borrow the Q once the 846 goes in.
