Like I said before everyone does stuff different. Especially when it comes to building engines. Only a suggestion. Do what you want.

Yes and the op said he put in a new top end and after one ride lost comp. blow by is my guess.

Also think about the amount of lubrication your cylinder gets from a 50:1 fuel air mix. It's not a four stroke engine that is lubricated by oil. The only lubrication it gets its entire life is 50:1 fuel air mix! In vapor form! Not much lubrication.

Not saying you can't lubricate the cylinder walls but the chances of your rings not seating properly are a lot higher when the cylinder walls are lubricated prior to start up. Just did a top end on a 09 sj that was freshly done by someone else took it apart and it had lots of blow by from the...

Newer two stroke dirt bikes are totally different as they have nicasil coated cylinders. They can't be honed. They do require more lubrication when new.

Dry is the only way to fly. Works great every time. Think about how much lubrication it gets when running. Most run 50:1 mix, that's not much lubrication. The main concern with a fresh topend is getting a good seat on the rings. Put a buch of lube on the cylinder walls and rings and they have no...

TC FreeRide can get all oem yamaha parts.

Sounds like you put in a new top end and did not get a good seat on the rings. Fresh set of rings and a fresh hone and put your top end together dry. no oil on the cylinder walls, only a very light wipe on the skirt of the pistons and you should be ready to go.

I went from a sn to a fs2 and would say out of all the other am hulls I've ridden the FS/r hulls are the best all around hulls out. I would not say they buoy better than a sj but they are def lighter. The length makes them a little unstable at speed. Don't get if wrong ill hold mine wfo all day...

Aussies sure do know how to have fun! Looks like a blast. I want to be the monkey, just along for the ride!

Nice David. See you soon. Safe travels. Time to get your brother of his lazy a$$ and get his ski fixed.

What are the dates your there till? I might try to get a ride in during the week if not then ill be there over the weekend for sure. Just south of the grand ave ramp.

Check Surf Line they have a live cam feed of pismo pier. Looks good right now.

The rain will be minimal. It's been barley a drizzle so far. Sky looks like fog.

There is miles of beach to ride. if your worried about it ride outside the main ride zone.

The TC freeride Rickter crew will be in force your chances are pretty good.

http://www.x-h2o.com/threads/121873-Runaway-SXR Looks like the ski still goes big! Check out Jeff Troegner trying to flip it at the JK pismo ride. And the short ride the boat went for by itself before sinking, again!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieBWcKLncsA&sns=em Doesn't look like its the first time that skis been for a ride. This looks like it going 92' in '07 piloted by Kevin Green.

If any of you do go out to camp you should come up the beach to ride. Most of us local guys ride pretty much every weekend. We usually ride about a 1/4 mile south of the grand ave ramp. Early am. Usually show up 8-9 am.

I was standing on the shore and saw the hole thing. Great! I ran out and grabbed it from those guys so there skis would not keep getting slammed. It sheared the throttle shaft of at the carb body and the butterflies went wfo with no spring. I was talking to the kid that was on it and he said it...
