    Super Jet Prop damage?

    I pulled the pump out of my Superjet to install a Jetmaniac bored nozzle and trim. I have a Solas YB-CD-13/17 impeller. The leading edge of the prop looks a bit rough. Should I try to fix it or is it no big deal?

    300/440/550 Build Thread: Yamaha Superjet motor in a Kawasaki 550sx hull

    We just pulled the Yamaha 6m6 (650) motor from our SN Superjet and dropped a 61x 701 in it. We've been thinking about a Kawi 650/750 conversion to replace the 550 piston port motor thats in our 550sx now because i'm 6' 4" 215 and the skis a bit undepowered even though the 550 is pretty...

    Super Jet Frogzskin and Pro-K

    I like to run my 701 SN underwater, or at least try tricks that get alot of water in the hull. We installed an Epic Scupper combined with a 500gph bilge that works great most of the time. The problem is i run an open element flame arrester (tau ceti or Pro-K) and sometime water splashes into...

    Super Jet Coupler removal

    I'm taking the coupler off my 6m6 motor to swap it out with a Kawasaki coupler because the 650 is going in my kawi 550 hull.... :-). Is the coupler a right hand thread? Lefty loosey, righty tighty? I was planning on using the rope in the cylinder trick to remove it unless anyone has a better...

    Super Jet Epic scupper valve install on SN Superjet

    Just bought a 90 Superjet and rebuilt it. Part of the build was installing an Epic Scupper Valve. The Scupper valve was $99 and is a really nice looking part that uses strong magnets to pull it shut so it doesn't leak. you need to also buy a length of 2" PVC pipe that slightly longer than the...

    Super Jet What is this and where does it go???

    Just got a new to me SN Superjet. Thing runs strong but is butt ugly so we're doing a build project. I found this in the hull tie wrapped to a cooling line down near the coupler. What is it and where does it go? The ski did not have a coupler cover on it, so I bought one and figured this...

    Super Jet Anyone recognize this handle pole?

    I just bought this Superjet for a great price ( probably because it's butt ugly). It's already repainted and we're putting on new turf, scupper valve, hood straps, and pole limiter. The handle pole doesn't look like the stock pole on a 90 SN. This one is quite a bit shorter. Anyone know what it's?
