cut your wires back an inch...that'll do er.

Still haven't watched a Dave video or read a book, but this thread did get me to want to pay off all my consumer debt. Update: Car paid off. 1 Credit Card to go ($3000) (should take about 3 months without a car payment!). Then I get to work on the wife....(1 mini van $13000) (3 credit cards...

Sick. Absolutely sick. Can people submit pics and articles???

Looks like fun!!! Next season, we gotta get our two crews together to ride on wave days. Our wave days are rarely the same. You guys can come down for some NE Surf close to shore surf and we'll come up for some SW far out Surf. It's only like a 2 1/2 hour drive. Well worth it for a long day...

Thanks bro...I am not a fan of the 750 porting...gonna stick with an SXR cylinder.. I really appreciate it!

Sick! Looks like Bobby did a couple improvements! You guys are going to LOVE these skis. What is the weight on each of them and of the hoods? btw...I still LOVE mine. I haven't ridden ANYTHING that I would trade it for.

Unless your going to race, chop it. It will pull your nose up a little higher for jumping and will actually put your pump deeper in the water for better hookup. MattSmith, You are the SXR king. What you do on basically a stocker in the surf is amazing!

When you turf the rails. (you'll have to glass the little holes from the rivets)...just use a large piece and start at the bottom...glue the rails and turf 3x and let it dry completely. As you begin to fold and mold it over the top (using a heat gun for sure) cut parts off. These rails are not...

Agreed. Do it right. Get real holds. You won't regret it. Nobody does.

I like IT! I'm going to use this as an 8th Grade Geometry question! Lets say you have a 2" pipe and a 4" pipe, just off the cuff, you'd think the 4" would flow twice the volume as the 2", but let's take a look at the area of those: Area = Pi(R^2) Area of the 2" = 3.14159(1^2) = 3.14159" Area...

....for my stock motor with a pipe? I'm going all stock except for a flywheel and a pipe...who really needs more?

I can run the same plugs for 2 months season with no issues (BR8ES) in fresh water. As soon as I hit salt, I have to change them out every day.

yep...drain the tank x 2...mop it out with paper towels...then clean out the carbs again. Check under your gas cap to make sure the rubber disc is still there...mine tore and caused a huge water leak into the tank.

Thanks Suzi! So, apparantly I need a girdle kit! lol...I had one a while back....even with my compression at 155? Was thinkin of goin back to a stock head? No? My dad is going to clean up the cases at work and make sure they are flat, gonna weld the cylinder and see how that...

So, in theory, you could actually do this ride on May 7th and 8th?

Did JK show up? Any reports on how he's doin?

Yeah, mix poor maintenance, crappy wrenching skills, laziness and beating the living chit out of a jetski and this is what you get...I think it can actually be welded back together. The rest of the motor is perfect (pistons, rings, cyllinder walls, crank, all look and move like new)...going to...

Hmmm...I am free revving...wonder what could cause the air leak?

There ya go...no need for drysuits if it was 88 and 90 the last two years...thats warmer than Oct... So its warmer. Better Swell. 7 Other jetski events going on in Sept & Oct. Sponsors could make it. Pro Riders could make it. Sounds like a 5x win to me to change the date.

The October date is the same distance from Tona as the April date. (about 90 days) btw...you can't not step on the toes of a sponsored ride. You are VERY worried about the Thrust ride, but not the 3 other sponsored rides in September in the north that have gone on for 12 years, 10 years, and...
