A friend at work was selling "a 750, a 550, and trailer" for a good price. I told him I was a Superjet guy, but it sounded like a good deal for someone and that I would talk it up for him. After a few months of no buyers forthcoming I finally took them out myself today. Turned out there was no 550 involved, it was a kind of rough but running 650, and a really decent 750 SXi pro. I ended up riding the 750 til dark and kind of fell in love with it. Really smooth power band, fast as heck, and ran really well. Definitely a different thing than the Superjet, but I really kind of fell in love with it, my stable has increased by two. SXi Motor.jpgSXi.jpg

Hopefully no mice in the ski! lol

Looks great. A few words if you aren't used to riding these, stock they are good for turning but they are pigs because the port timing is high and the weight is high too. Modded with a pipe and more power these things can hit like crazy and are totally different animals. With hull extensions and tubbies these things are like 80% an sxr at 50% the cost. Handles more friendly and feels smaller too.. that's one thing I can't fully get used to on the sxr, after riding my 550/750 primarily.

If you want massive low end, a freestyle ported 800 cylinder, factory limited pipe, and a 14/19 big hub, destroyer front sponsons, d cut ride plate and you'll be massively surprised at how it will leap off wakes. Race port, Nynja C4 pipe, ect with 3DR mods and you'll have an extreme buoy carver.

I have a set of carbon fiber 2" extensions if you want them. they are from blowsion. I liked them with tubbie 2's and a extended plate, It would carve like crazy. Now Im into the shorter plate and dont need them.

I am enjoying the heck out of this thing so far. It's power band really comes on after 1/4 - 1/3 throttle, doesn't just leap out of the water off idle but it is smooth and responsive on the bottom and pulls me up quickly when I lay it down. Even with no footholds I can get decent air off my own wake, and it shocks me how tight of a circle it will spin, and will slide out nicely when you want it to. I am still getting used to the difference in steering at high speeds, but it is just different not worse in any way than the SN. It feels more "tippy" at low speed, but I am having tons of fun playing with it, and getting comfortable on it really fast. More fun for my style than my buddy's SXR for much less $$.
