    FX-1 What tubbies work best?

    I'm seriously thinking about putting some tubbies in my fx to add some stability. Which ones work best? I feel like my fx handles well in flat water, but as soon as there is some (or a lot of) chop or waves it's really tough keep it up.

    FX-1 put footholds and rrp ajustable pole on fx1 or superjet?

    I'm having trouble deciding which ski to put my new rrp pole and footholds into when they come in. If I put the rrp pole on the fx-1, I could put the 2in shorter fx-1 pole on the superjet. The superjet is so much more stable and would be better for bigger airs, waves (better hook), choppy...

    Footholds...What is needed to purchase for the install? (turf (how much), etc...

    I'm super excited because I have a RRP adjustable pole coming in a few days. I just realized that if I'm going to get into freestyle and spend so much on a pole that I better get some footholds installed asap! From what I've read there is quite a bit of debate on these items. I wear a...

    which hood to buy?

    My hood on my 01 rn superjet is really chipped up. What are my options to making it look nice again? New (used) stock hood? Do something to my hood? Maybe take off all the old paint somehow and leave it white? Take it to a paint shop and have it repainted? If I go this route, about how...

    Anyone modded the stock steering (turn) plate like this?

    *** It looks pretty sweet for a slight mod to the stock turn plate. It mocked up my bars in that position and it seems like the throttle would hit the pad and not allow the bar to turn to the left. Has anyone tried this? What has to be modified to allow the bars to turn without hitting the...

    what is the best way to make steering quicker

    I relocated the steering hookup on the jet nozzle already. I moved it about 3/4 inch to the inside. I didn't really notice a difference. What is it supposed to do? I've been switching back and forth between my rn superjet and my fx-1. The fx-1 turns so much quicker with no mods. Can I...

    What googles is everyone using?

    Is everyone using goggles? I got really sick of the punch in the face water that I tried some saftey googles. They worked pretty good, but easily filled with water. Has anyone found a better way to avoid the open eye blues? How about shoes? I've heard wrestling shoes are good. Any...

    I have a two place aluminum jet ski trailer. It can hold two giant sit downs no problem. I would like keep one bay open for our seadoo sitdown, but also get my two standups (superjet and fx1) on it. I've seen a guy have some sort of bolt system to go thru the hole on the front of the skis...

    Ski tilts to right side while floating

    I just purchased an 01 superjet about a week ago. I noticed that it tilts a bit to the right in the water. I'd say about 2 inches more than the left. I figured it was due to some water being in the hull. I tested it today while the engine bay was completely dry and it still tilts a bit. Any...

    How dose the 08/09 superjet compare to the sxr 800? Does the superjet turn as well now with the added sponsons and hull shape? How does the pre 08/09's compare to the 08/09 superjets or sxr? I'm thinking about buying a new ski and would love to hear what people like and dislike about these...

    FX-1 Who has done the pump conversion (144mm or other)?

    If you have done this mod, tell us about the difference from stock, reliablity issues, and time it took to put it in. I've found one picture tutorial for the kawi 650 pump. Does anyone know where more tutorials are? We should try to get all links on one post.
