Hi guys, I recently started riding an SJ and I can ride properly now. My legs are a snug fit in the tray of the SJ. I saw a pic of a kawasaki js hull and the tray looks tiny. How does the js tray compare to the SJ?

I already tried the search bar :D

If the SJ's tray is a snug fit for me, would the js tray be too narrow?
If it is 12 inch, then how does someone ride on their knees or get on for that matter?

Yes, there are a bunch. Haveyou ridden a sxr? Going from a sxr tl a superjetis like going froma superjet to a 550. The tray is very narrow and your feet side by side prty much touch. 550 and fx1 are sikilar in size. Fx1 has a bigger following for tray modifications and peole often widen them several inches. The 550 tray is terrable and i wouldnt own a 550 and not widen the tray.

Is it possible to sit on the tray of the js on your knees? How do you climb on one if you are a larger rider?

You can do anything with some talent and determination. I pnce put my a large beach ball in the tray of my superjet and rode it as a sit down. What is ypur goal here? The 550 is a bit step backwards from the superjet. The guys you see tearing it up on 550s and fx1 have invested large sums of time and money into them.

I dont plan on buying a js ski but I was wondering how my riding experience would be on a js hull compared to an SJ

What you did with the beach ball was pretty cool :D

It would be excellent for the novelty. I rewlly like vintage skis and will try anthing anyone lets me try. What made the ride exciting was that it was a piece of history, otherwise its in no way comparahle to an even stock superjet. If you ever get the chance to ride a 550, ypu definately should, but dont compare it to your superjet, or it will ruin the experiemce.

Now the 650 motor/pump conversions with a pipe, carb and wide tray, i think that could be a pretty exiting time.
