Have a nice PRO that quite frankly no one rides. All stock and original except for the Chrysler green engine paint and the outside being washed with acetone to get all the faded green off. Thing is an honest runner just missing a rider. What's it worth ?

Got a hull you want to sell and are willing to bring to Daytona ? Post 'em up. Eliminating the hassle and cost of shipping might be what that potential buyer needs to push him/her over the edge. :biggrin:

Touring the local pawn shops yesterday I saw them roll out a new arrival. A 2009 Trek 6000 just like the one in this review. http://bikereviews.com/mountain-bikes/trek/2009-trek/trek-6000-mountain-bike/ It looks nice and barely used but it it worth $600 that they are asking for it ?? It...

Here's a dump little issue I'm having. I want to transfer a shait load of my music files (lets say 50GB) from the desktop to my laptop but don't know how to go about it. The desktop is running XP while the laptop Vista, if that matters. Only portable storage device I have is a 4 GB memory...

When installing an X-metal trim on my trusty old SN I went ahead and welded a piece of aluminum to act as a stop on the bottom of my nozzle. Didn't want the cable to be under constant strain when the trim wasn't being used. Anyway, I welded it on where the trim ring wouldn't sit at 0* but more...

I know there's that "what's new" tab and you can check subscribed threads by going into "settings". Is there a "today's posts" tab or button ???? Just checking.

Had a major water leak in my PRO which was coming in from every opening in my bulkhead. The seal on the midshaft was OK but the plate was corroded to a point that it broke. When I pulled if off I noticed another aluminum plate under the carrier. This second plate has even more corrosion on it...

A guy I know is selling off his stuff as he's going back to Brazil in a few months. One of the items is a Toshiba Satellite L355D-S7901 lap top that is barely 4 months old and looks brand new. He's asking $300 for it and I was wondering if it's a decent deal ?? He also has some parts for a...

Pulled the motor out of my ski yesterday for a general cleanup and to survey the 3 new holes I made in the bottom after collecting some rather large rocks (had a blast just the same). Anyway, my motor mount perches (those raised areas with the inserts in them) are looking rather rooted. They...

2 days ago I downloaded some windows updates (yep, that was smart) and right away things started to go wacky. Lost all sound even though it's all working properly according to status and windows is having a really hard time starting. Maybe the sound card took a dump or some drivers got...

Son of a......... Power just went out again for a few seconds and my computer shut down. I have an APC UPS ES-750 battery backup but it seams that my computer reacts much faster than the backup and shuts down. Never did this with the old transformer/power pack/ whatever it's called. Is...

Well, I just picked up a nice little PRO that has spent all it's life sitting on a dock of a multi million dollar home along side some couches and boats. This thing got very little use, that OEM prop doesn't have a single mark on it and the hull barely has a scratch on the bottom other than...

What a nice ride today, a bit overcast and not that warm but that 73degree water made up for it. Still had a wetsuit on and my hot water pissers were in full swing but it was nice to go out for over an hour at a time and actually feel all my appendages at the end. Anyway, just thought I'd...

I know this isn't exactly a dirt bike but I figured someone here would know. Picked up a 96 Honda Shadow VT1100C (I want to be a Harley) that has been sitting for over 2 years. Yep, there's varnish in the tank. Need to clean the fuel system but want to do some research first so I don't screw...

Just picked up one of those turds and will be cutting it up today. Are any of the hull parts worth saving ? Hood, seat, steering, drive shafts ??

I know this is a dumb question to ask but I'm having a hard time deciding. Talked to the guy and he said that the pump is locked up (ware ring or bearings) so the motor doesn't turn over. The thing is all stock except for turf on the sides and regular carpet glued down in the wells. Other...

I just love Daytona and the whole ride. The people are awesome, the skis rock, the venue couldn't be any better, the raffle, the tricks, ................... But (and there always is a but), the one thing I'm not a fan off is dragging the ski back into the water after it has sat on the beach...

Just watching that I made brown. This guy has some serious attachments. BTW, the ending is where I made brown. http://www.grindtv.com/video/moto/robbie_maddison_nails_it_jumps_120ft_to_top_of_arc_de_triomphe_1/

Just messing with a spare hull trying to come up with some paint ideas. Since I suck at anything art related this is about all I could come up with after several coats of paint. Does this work or is it hokey ?? The idea was to make it look like an old Gasser or a Rat Rod. Would need to...

Just went into my local West Marine and they had 2.5 gal jugs of Sea Ranger oil for just under $24. It's a TC-W3 dino oil and since West Marine discontinued the Sea Ranger line they are dumping the remaining stock. Works out much less than Quicksilver at my local Wallyworld.
