Superjet bogging when turned on right side

I have a stock 701 superjet, stock pipe, stock 38's. I have been experiencing a problem when the ski is tipped on its right hand side. When the ski gets turned on the right side it bogs down to the point where sometimes it completly dies out. Typical scenario where I experience this problem is when I jump off a wave and lose control and fall to the right. I can also re produce this problem just idleing out of the harbor and tipping the ski on its right hand side.

I know that I AM NOT injesting water b/c when the ski gets turned upright it instantly returns to normal. The only way I can tip the ski on its right hand side and NOT have it bog down is if I keep the throttle pinned when falling over, but if I let off the throttle before the ski gets turned upright again, it will bog back down.

This problem really sucks in the surf when another wave is comming right at me. The surf is getting better and I don't want to get thrown around in the waves just because I am having this problem. Please help. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

Perhaps your exhaust hose is hitting and blocking the holes in the diaphragm covers on the carbs.
Try drilling another hole, opposite the other one, in each carb.

Its too dark out side and I'm too lazy to go look at the carbs on my ski, but what are these holes you are talking about?

I don't think it could be that, b/c the exahust hose is like 2 inches away from the carbs.

try looking at your water seperator, might sound crazy but i had the same sorta thing happening to me. my water sperator would be filling up like twice in an hour of riding. now i cracked open the screw in the bottom and haven't had a problem since.

its just an idea.

There's one hole on the diaphragm cover of each carb.
It's a possibility.
Check into your N&S and the arms.

Ive been planning on going through the carbs, but just been waiting to get a B-Pipe to do it while I'm re jetting. I am trying to sell the SXR, and as soon as I get the money I'm purchasing

1) B Pipe Limited Chamber ( used if there is one available at the moment, otherwise I'm going to buy brand new)
2) Foot wells, turf, and all materials
3) Bilge handlebar switch
4) Either a one way or scupper
 
I think it it leaning itself out untill it dies mine does the exact opposite. Flat in the water and to the right is runs like an raped ape and to the left it bogs bown spits and sputters untill it is flat then it clears out and goes. This was a problem in 2001 when I got it. I had it in for warranty work and after they wrenched on it for months I finally called .... I can't remember I think his name was "Francis" or somethign like that I think it was at Riva or one of the big names and he said that all I needed to do was adjust the low speed set screws out a 1/8 turn and it would solve the problem. I did it and everythgin was perfect untill I added all the aftermarket stuff and now it still does it slightly. I just don't worry about it anymore.
