Freestyle Freakin' "Money Pit" - Assembly

[mike b]

Ya no worries on my pipe. It went back to its home so all worked out. If it comes to the pipe being the last thing and holding you from getting on the water let me know and ill see if he still has the bpipe laying around. Its a mod pipe BTW but full setup but he will want top dollar like these other used bpipes that get listed

I had no clue a used pipe was worth as much as a new one. Who would have thought! Lol

 

[mike b]

items are only worth what people will pay. When the company is on backorder for months, if thats the only thing holding you back i bet people could ask MORE than new prices. Supply and demand lol.

 

[MegaManAU]

You got that right. I'm surprised the saying "they still make those things?" Doesn't have a picture of a pipe associated with it instead.

 

[mike b]

^LOL. Im not sure the reason they let their order size get so big and pushed back so far. Maybe just didn't want to have a bunch on the shelf. Someone told me of a day were they got used bpipes for 300 bucks, now a 5 year old pipe still goes for 700

There was a guy on one of the facebook groups selling a nynja mani and headpipe for a bpipe just no chamber

Go rrp pipe and never look back

 

[mike b]

Now that i think about it I know someone with both an rrp and PFP. as well as my buddy with a bpipe. Ill make some calls and shout outs these next few days and hopefully I can help find you a pipe and get you riding!

 

[MegaManAU]

Thank you! If the prices of the other pipes are the same as new, I'll probably wait to buy new.

Everything looks great

I noticed the stock spring loaded ball joint cable connection for the steering binds at the nozzle when the trim is at full throw upward. Any insight?

 

[Sanoman]

Look at this pic (sorry it's the only one I have) On the steering nozzle where it it connects to the steering cable l use a ibolt that pivots on a long bolt.You are using a stock ball and socket.l got that with an xmetal trim.

I have one of those setups on my '96 Seadoo XP trim. I'll swap over to a heim-joint. Thanks Don! Got my XP and GTX into the water today for the first time. So happy that it is lake time, the fever has set in!

And thanks for the tech name on the part.

I have a new RRP Ninja pipe for sale. I I already turfed the waterbox and I have the thrust tank for that pipe. Looks just like a TI5 but a hair smaller. I think it's 4.5 gallons

I talked to Chris @JetManiac and he helped me through my issue with the binding issue with the nozzle. There was a ball joint rod end that came with the kit, that I overlooked and it solved my issue.

I now have a @LimitedSlip7 fuel tank on order and an RRP carbon pipe in the box awaiting shipping from @Jyzmbe.

I probably still need a pole, but I am going to try to use what I have so I can get a better idea on length and style I want after I get it dialed in.

 

[Sanoman]

Got a full length Xmetal pole with CF turnplate and 50mm riser bars l would let go of.......

My new RRP Pipe arrived today!
