    2008 Super Jet

    Ahoy, I’m selling my 08 super jet. Bought it last year, rode it once and in the famous words of Toby Keith, I ain’t as young as I once was. Located in Elizabeth City, NC. It has a jetmaniac engine I believe a 718? B pipe, ocd electrical etc etc. I only rode fresh water in Michigan...

    Which SJ to buy?

    Hey all, I’ve been out of the game for quite some time due to military service. My last ski was a 2002 SJ with a lot of standard mods. I’m looking to purchase another ski but I’m curious what the real difference is in the pre 08 to post 08 SJ. I’m pretty certain I wanna stay away from the...

    Bottom Paint

    So... I want to paint the bottom of my hull. The hull is in great shape and needs no repairs. I want to use something durable. I've looked into gel coat but most people have talked me out of it. Awl grip was suggested as a very durable paint but no one knows how it will hold up in water...

    Other Anybody clean the inside of the exhaust?

    My b-pipe has the sludge/slime build-up in it and I was wondering if anyone ever cleans the inside of them. My "background" is drag racing snowmobiles and we cleaned the insides every once in a while but it wasn't sludgy like the b-pipe is. This sludge has got to deaden the sound wave a lil...

    Super Jet Why does my battery keep dying?

    I just put a new battery in this thing 2 weeks ago, I went with the etx9 battery. Ive rode it 3 times since then and go to start it today and its dead. It fires right up when I put a jumper box on it. Does leaving the lanyard plugged in kill the battery?

    Yellow Submarine

He lifted the pole up and he was gone, shot a fountain on the way down. I cant figure it out... Is this the correct...

    Super Jet Cutting out above 3/4 throttle

    I have a stock 2000 Superjet with a Bpipe mod chamber on it. It ran perfect last weekend and yesterday started acting up. I can rip around no problem but as soon as I go past 3/4 throttle for more that 100 ft it falls right on its face or stalls out. When I falls on its face i can blip the...

    Pipe/ Head Combo?

    Eventually I would like to put a Bpipe on my 2000 RN but I also want to run a aftermarket head. Is there a "good" head to run in combination with the pipe? How does the pipe mount? I would prefer a head that I dont loose the temp sensor. Girdled or not? Which domes for pump gas? The engine...

    Foothold Chafing

    I rode my ski for the first time w/o a wetsuit and my foothold basically rubbed the skin off the outside of my legs above my ankle. Anyone else have this problem? I was thinking of finding a used wetsuit and cutting the legs off about 8-10" from the bottom.

    Impeller broke, locked everything up.

    So I was cruising down the river today and something felt funny. It was a weird vibration that started right after I jumped a wake. 5 seconds later the engine locked right up and that was the end of my day. After I got towed back and pulled out of the water I realized the impeller had come...

    What are my pole pad options?

    I have a 2000 RN and when I came up from a sub my pole pad was floating next to me. The plastic tabs that hold the brass nuts ripped right off. What are my options to put another pad on here without spending a ton of money. Thanks

    What holds the choke plunger out when you pull it?

    Im putting everything back together after a turf job and I reinstalled the choke. But when I pull it out and let go, it goes right back in. Is there something to adjust or am I doing something wrong?

    Caulking Turf Seems?

    I was thinking of running a bead of black caulk around my tray where the turf edges meet. Anyone else done this? Seems like it would keep sand out and maybe keep the edges down. Also up in the footholds where the seems are, if they were caulked maybe they wouldnt catch the shoes and peel...

    Engine Issues

    So I pulled my motor out of my 2000 RN to put the Lightweight Couplers on and to send my Flywheel away to be lightened. I never expected to see this. Is this a bad crank seal? If I wouldnt have pulled the cover to get the stator what would have happened???
