nice job on the write up built one the exact same way, strapped the ski to it and then had it crated for shipping now it serves double duty as a beach stand, truck bed stand! i'm thinking of adding removable castors so that i could use it as a dolly in the garage

Winter...what's that??? LOL In the Caribbean so no doubt its year round. Coldest riding day...um air temp 75 water temp 65 :arms: :Banane57:

there's no space to mount these near the coupler in a RN... i think the only place they fit is between tank and flywheel cover if scupper is not an option, move one of your pumps in front of the flywheel cover...it will be out of the "super blender foamy chop" and should pump out enough to...

try here but i think its the RN manual... http://jmfiskin.com/manuals/

Welcome!! Yes u can install a flushing systme that way. there are kits available, but you could just as well build your own. use a plastic garden hose adaptor and cap for obvious reasons. check the setup in the pic http://www.x-h2o.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=52579&d=1207666977

get some more ride time in before u invest in the plate/scoop etc. u'll get a better feel for what mods u'll need/want. don't ride so much in a straight line!! turns and tricks and AIR are funner than speed!!!

soul man thanx for that idea had not thought of checking first. had the ski in the water saturday morning to check water levels etc. before doing the install on satruday night. My ski tilts a bit to the right when sitting idle so i installed the thru hull on the left side, about 5-6in forward...

i use the choke at the beginnning of every day (cold starts). without the choke have u used primers? if so u'd still have the problem of no free hole in the dash.... don't want to get off topic...i'm just looking for examples of thru-hull locations. and any thoughts about pumping through the...

frosty (or anyone else) could u post a pic or a link to a pic of the thru-hulls location. i like to see what it looks like before i drill anything. how bout pumping right into the stock blige hose. i know its a smaller diameter but wouldn't that make for a cleaner install?

the tray idea sounds fine if you've removed the fuel selector or choke. i still have both on my ski and do not plan on removing either. thanx though

Just wondering where u guys mount the thru hull fitting for a bilge pump on a RN. and advantages left side vs right side. thanx btw its a rule semi automatic 500gph

x2 but might be a bit longer than a one winter project... started building one a few years ago based on plans from The Edge in Perth Australia. i have a CBR1000 engine for it, and the chassis frame is done...thats about as far as i got if you've got welding skills, or access to someone who...

for exactly this reason i suggest removing them to be on the "safe" side x2 on the stubby...or if you've got an old 12mm just cut it

Thanx for the welcome... LOTS of skis down here but mostly couches. very few are modded at all. started modding my couch a while back and some people caught on, most are content with stock. if not they go all out and buy a newer "faster" model... in our group: 6 standups (2 sx-r & 4 RN) i...

x2 on checking needle and seat most likely dripping fuel. like bluegtate said, heavy rich conditions on cold starts are ok, but once warm u'll flood quick. don't think its the reeds since he says that it runs great once it starts. i say check the needle and seat, and while u'r in there...

been reading on here for a little while and just started posting so i'll introduce myself. first off i bought Bill Adkins 2k4 squeeky clean RN :Banane01:. the one advertised in Yamaslut's signature. i live and ride in HAITI. all flatwater, so surf nearby... ski was shipped out of miami...

First post on here so it might as well be to try and help someone... As stupid as it sounds, what helped me when i first started out was remembering to steer. i would keep leaning into the turn before turning the bars. makes its REAL unstable, u end up falling off the tray to the side and ski...
