so a deep sub doesn't give a good risk of hydrolocking?

First off this is my first summer using a stand-up. I have a bone stock '08 SJ, and I am getting good at flat water subs on command. So is it good practice to leave the engine on during a deep sub? Sometimes my speed is too high and it will make me go too deep (so deep, the boat is pointing...

I agree with cookerq62. I am absolutely blown away by the 08's handling and hook up.

Wow, there isnt even BNGs!? I was hoping for the nano x-cell hull. The dealer wanted 7200 for my '08. I negotiated 7k out the door. I still felt like I got ripped off. So I figured they would raise the price on the 09. Now we will be paying close to 8K before taxes due to dealer (Bob...

interesting... I'll look into it this winter. thanks for the info.

interesting, what can I cap it with that will withstand that kind of pressure? the exit velocity of the water must be rediculous. thanks for the pointers. :cool:

its so freaking lame! I mean in certain situations it sprays your bum giving you negative style points. and my kawi friends really like pointing that out. lol

The '08 visibility spout is getting to be a real annoyance. Can I just remove the connecting hose from the pump's jet nozzle to the vertical visibility spout? thanks

I would say the hook-up is night and day better than the previous years. Corners and cuts are easier to execute, and the boat doesnt suck up as much stamina. My brother who rides the '07 misses the ease of low speed slides on flat water.

I started talking to a dealer this last January to line up my '08. It was hell to keep him on board that I was serious buyer. My suggestion is to order the boat still in the crate. those monkeys at Bob Lamphere's in Portland, OR who took mine out the crate did some considerable damage to the...

Mine was a total pain to lock one down as well, but worth the hassle and hype. I drove 6 hours and had reserved one since last January. It cuts and carves like a roller coaster...

Nice Sub haha. I still can't ride out those deep ones either... How you liking your '08? I freakin love it. a good balance of freestyle and race.

People say kawasucki for a reason.

I looked at amsoil dominator,but their disclaimer wasn't what I was looking for... * Not suitable for long-term use in outboard motors as a TC-W3 type oil, although excellent as a race oil for short-term use where motors are periodically inspected.

Officer Mike sums it up perfectly. My Bro has the '07 which I rode all last year and I took yesterday off work because I couldnt take it anymore to break in my '08, it handles like a dream, and the hype for the most part is true. If you can find one, and afford it, Knab it!

dammit! Mine ran me 7k w/o a trailer! dealer wanted 7.2k since they only get 3 all year. :banghead:

oh damn... nice ski man. I'm so excited I can't contain myself. Kinda strange the dealership put the pre-mixed gas in my ski before I took it home, so it looks like I might have to roll yamalube. Oh well. Thanks for your help mike. Clark

thank you mike. How is the new 08? Does it live up to the hype? The dealer was getting a chubby talking to me about it. Haha, Im losing sleep over it. Its going to be a long two tanks. Oh yea, did you use yamalube for your break-in oil?

I know this subject has been beat to death, I just purchased a 08' superjet and I'm breaking it in this weekend. I was just going to stick with what yamaha says to do. Any other thoughts from experience? Cheers,
