NICE! Nothing like scoring an unmolested ski! How much?

yea man, its a guy that, i think he said hes 52 with a wife and 2 kids.. He bought it new in 98 off the showroom floor as a left over ski for 4700.
i paid $3,000.
how much do you think its worth or how much can i sell it for at the beginning of the summer?

 

[Sparkplug]

nice man, go ride that thing, and you wont even be thinking about what you could sell it for

thanks everyone. and yea, thats why i wanted to do this truck up, because its rare around here. all the front suspension is actually titan parts because the frames are the same, so it bolts right up makin it 6" wider. cant wait to take my truck and new jetski to pismo! pismo will definitely be my new favorite place!!
but i do need a trailer so i can put my tiregate back on!!

I used to live 15mins from pismo. It was by far my favorite place, but then i wasnt into stand ups(donno why). yeah that Nissan looks awesome, everyones got tacoma, dont see many Nissans tho. Nice stuff.

So i took it out for the first time today in a narrow part of the delta and OMG im in love!! soo fun to ride.. So much different than a street bike.. on a street bike u dip hard and put your weight on the inside foot. Correct me if im wrong but i notice i turn alot better with my weight on the outside foot. The way i was breaking my habit, id take my inside foot off the ski to only use my outside foot!! either way, im lovin it, cant see myself getting tired of it.. such a workout and a challenge!!
horrible iphone zoomed in pic my mom took without me knowing lol
