So you have personally or known someone who had a SBT crank fail??? I am not talking about their motors, but just the cranks. I have used two of them and they have held up perfectly and I have blown two oem cranks. I have never heard of anyone have an SBT crank fail, ever, even on rentals.

You guys have blown an SBT crank??? Never seen one go yet...My brother has built 100s of motors using them on rental skis and never had a problem. Plus they have a 1 year no fault warrantee. I haven't heard of one person who has had one fail. The cast pistons when they blow tend to crumble...

bump for 2011!!! It's gettin close...

With that form, I'll guarantee that you could go plate to plate on my -2 trinity (SXR) ES.

That is one thing I will teach my kids...no credit cards in college!!!! Those loan sharks are in every student union with free college hats, t-shirts, ipods, just for signing up. Rotten bastards.

I wouldn't worry about that small amount of water on a stock sxr. The styrofoam won't get heavy...Just tilt it to the left as you pull the trailer out of the water.

Me too! I'm fat.

Nice! We probably won't open for another week.... I'll hit you guys up when we make a HV trip for sure.

Looks great. I need to ride one of these!

Thanks Caker!

Thanks for the comments! I am going to get him on skis in a few weeks while he has no fear of anything.

I can't see running a heavier pole...My UMI's broke like they were made of paper mache...the XMetal has not broken yet, but I have seen them break. If I had it to do over, I would go with an AC or an old SR71 24-7 carbon pole. Those are the only poles I have not seen break and they are light...

Good info, Art. The reason I use wisecos is because if they do blow, there is less chance of them crumbling and destroying your cylinder and cases. Wiseco's have the exact bore and clearance written right on the box. I actually like the smooth throttle response of pro-x better, and they ARE...

That they do...haven't ever seen a day in Sandiego that wasn't at least 3 footers. If you do it next to the pier on Garnet, they are for some reason a foot or so bigger.

They could have it at Long Beach in LA or Pacific Beach in California... It would be HUGE!!! A little advertising in the area and it would be insane. Throw a live band or DJ and some bleachers on the beach and it would GO OFF as an insane event. No need for a stupid Wave pool when you could...

Really lookin forward to this...I'll pre-order one right now! 2tbs! Thats some SERIOUS footage...I can't imagine how many killer shots you got.... We are all in need of a good winter stoke up Movie!

What bore is it on? Is it a stock cylinder? What price?

A shortened faster steering mod and a longer ride plate will help alot... but mostly, just ride it ALOT. You'll get it to stop porpoising by learning how to work the throttle and your weight.

Nope...as long as the cylinder is saved. :headbang:

I know that the aluminum had to be welded right where it actually touches the cyliner...he said it didn't get too hot, but it was enough to move it.
