    Was putting my factory pipe wet pipe back on my ski and I was torquing the head pipe to the manifold and one of the bolt hold stipped. Should I use heli cole or a time sert? Anybody know the size I need to get? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    Need opinions from those who have ridden 750's and 800sxr

    The 800 SXR is far a better ski more stable, better handling, & better motor. I owned both within the last two years and wouldn't even consider a 750.

    I took the electrical box out of my 2008 SXR and put it in the 2009 and we got spark. Now to figure out what is bad in the electrical box. The Viper CDI is brand new so I would assume that's fine. When my friend changed the coil he bought a NGK coil off of e-bay that he stated he called the...

    SXR Water Lines Routing for Factory Wet Pipe & ADA Girdle Head

    On a stock 800 SXR there are two water lines coming into the boat on the back wall of the boat on either side of the shaft. Is the one to the left water coming in and the one on the right water going overboard out the pump?

    SXR SXR 800 Worx Ride Plate?

    Poor Boy-----Is the length a issue with the Worx ride plate? Like I said in my original post it looks like it would tear you up if you fell off the back of the ski. To give you an idea of what I got going on with the pump I have a Impros set back prop 13/23 a TBM Racing cone. The boat has...

    SXR SXR 800 Worx Ride Plate?

    I purchased a SXR 800 that was bone stock other than a Worx ride plate. I am setting the boat up to be a limited for buoy riding. I haven't ridden the boat yet but I can't get over how far the ride plate hangs off the back. It looks like you would destroy your knees if you fell off the ski...

    SXR Need Advice >>Pump mods worth doing?

    I just purchased a 2008 SXR 800 and want to turn it into a limited ski for buoy riding. I haven't raced for several years and this is my first SXR. I want to change the prop and while I am in there is it worth putting a pump cone on? How about a pump shoe? Should I bore the nozzle? Thanks
