Well Im sure that I could handle providing a different receptacle for it.

Thanks for the input everyone. I should have titled this thread, do I need to ultrasonic clean or not? I was told the 6L version of the one smoofers posted is just barely big enough to fit it all, so if I buy one, I will likely go that route.

Maybe. Maybe not? The carb has been sitting at worst case 35 years on the engine, I figured ultrasonic cleaning may be in order. The issues I am having, really are not THAT horrendous. One booster on the primary is leaking fuel at idle, runs just fine everywhere else & wanted to at least try to...

Hi Guys, how many of you have an ultrasonic cleaner? I need to source one for my boat carb (holley 4160), and it looks like the $80 harbor freight cleaner is too small, I would have to keep flipping the carb to clean the whole thing. Next step up is about $100 that should fit it, which isn't...

Isn’t there a bit of a hood mod you can do for airflow to get rpm out of stock class sxr’s too? That’s more or less ahem, (il)legal?

Airbox always seems to be an area where people really hope and want there to be easy gains made, but if you ride enough skis, you know this is never the case. Maybe it will reduce water ingestion on an already pretty good air box for this matter, but that's about it. Good science project though.

I've always been told that you basically have to move companies to get a real raise. Either that or get the offer in your hand and give your boss an ultimatum & see if they will pony up. Kind of annoying, but its the way it goes I guess.

You’re probably not going to get a lot of people promoting the idea of getting out of a trade to pursue power sports. Just doesn’t seem like there is much money in it. Good luck. Also, hobbies should be hobbies imo.

What’s the dread? Screw the damn things on and be done. Don’t over complicate it, you’re just asking for additional headaches glassing them into the hull. I don’t recommend it at all.

Since you have no experience with a ski with tubbies and (wild guess) you are not running CFD on your design, what evidence do you have that wayyy wider than off the shelf is better? Also, prowatercraft are the only tubbies that I know of that are a generic shape. If you're planning on just...

Design advice: buy a set that has already been proven to work, time is money, there is 0 reason to reinvent the wheel here.

High jump in performance upper limit, I would imagine, too. Hotter engine calibration surely makes this thing much much faster than the old superjet. Not to mention the other performance mods that will hopefully become cheaper as production levels can increase. I see the turbo kit costs about as...

Seizure here meaning, a 'lean-seizure'. Air to fuel ratio containing an insufficient amount of fuel for too long of time, causing combustion chamber to experience increased temperature enough to cause the oil film to burn off the cylinder walls. Due to the lack of or damage to the protective...

My SO overheated a blaster one time. A cooling line got pinched off and she did not notice that there was no water coming out of the pisser. It started to run funny so she turned it off & this thing was absolutely smoking. So hot that the paint straight up started to peel off the head, but it...

Wow what a surprise, a company reported a bad couple quarters during the pandemic, just like.. literally every other company in existence? They’ve been working on the ski longer than 6 months.

Do you really imagine a Yamaha exec. laughing and saying, 'HA, no graphics for you! This will never sell!'? Or after the hundreds of NRE engineering hours, 'yeah guys, I don't know, we just don't have anything left in the tank for graphics this time..' I don't know what their graphic inspiration...

Uh what? Are you just saying this because you don't like the graphics?

Ski looks awesome. Makes me want to get back into jetskis! Curious if they did anything with the pump, still says 144, but mag style stator maybe? Scoop grate from factory? They did a lot of things right on this ski, in my opinion. Hope people enjoy it. Weight doesn't bother me as my old SN was...

If you are on instagram, it looks like Dustin Motz has a youtube video of a release and on-board video of it all ready to go. They are waiting for mid-day for Yamaha to officially release it first. I always heard that Kommander held a heavy hand in the development of this ski, so I'm really...

Wow did they let nautique design this thing? Flat nose and totally necessary lines and shapes.
