    Super Jet another refoam project

    Didya find any pecans in there? really though, you have to cut them out & grind all that mess off the hull and footholds before you relay glass. it does not even look like epoxy.

    Surfriding ScottS's Matrix ES at last

    The tray mod is the bee's knees; the cat's pajamas! :Banane09: the front left foothold really works great and the tray feels bigger that my modded wide tray. Love it, will be doing mine this way over the winter.

    Thanks for the info guys! Been working on this project off & on for last 2 years (mostly off). Hate glasswork in summer. Finally got the hood liner done in the last month or so. Looks like the GP1200r one may work better. The 1200 & 1200r steering necks are slightly different. The GP1200...

    I'm using a stainless fishing rod holder as my side exhaust exit; cut it shorter and knock out the plastic insert tube in it. I have it exiting the hull just behind the tubbie, not nearly as loud as front exit only. Exhaust tube runs under the carb manifold...

    Super Jet Impeller came unscrewed while riding?
