    Super Jet 2008-2020 SJ Ride Plate Flush Cut and D Cut

    2008-2020 Superjet ride plate which i flush cut to the end of the hull and d cut. I've never used it. Just find its never right for my type of riding, which frequently includes buoys now. This is a freestyle plate and will allow the rear the best chance at sliding and getting the nose up. Edges...

    coffman vs. b pipe

    @kevbo that's some good info. You mean shorter pipe was better suited to the yamaha 650 because it helped gain rpm? All else equal a shorter pipe will give you higher peak power and rpm, as you saw on the engines with the same port timing. Thanks for the rpm on those, that is interesting. Feel...

    coffman vs. b pipe

    Great old thread with some good info. I recently got a Sizzler and put it on my 650 wave jammer. Labor Day weekend we data logged the heck out of the ski, 48.5mph at 7060-7080 rpm. I have a ball valve cutting the water line to the stinger down to half, as well as a flow control valve. Based on...

    Super Jet Does a bone stock SN Porpoise if its foam is water logged?

    Yea it is that bad. It's porpoising of magnitudes larger than some people can bunny hop lol. The period / distance between hops is longer and less vigorous than some other skis, such as modded 750 sx / sxi / pros. Those skis with stock hulls at speed can get downright violent with their...

    Super Jet Does a bone stock SN Porpoise if its foam is water logged?

    Actually the weight doesn't really bother me at all. Would it be a plus to get this thing down to what it should weigh? Yes. The big issue is handling because once the deal goes through with my friend, this will be my primary wife / brother's gf / visiting friend / daughter when she's old enough...

    Super Jet Does a bone stock SN Porpoise if its foam is water logged?

    I agree about the pump wedge, that works for the Kawi sxi pro and xir because the nozzle is independent of the pump feet. Once I own this ski I'll try shimming the ride plate and perhaps putting an intake on it. Start monitoring how it feels with fuel tank level too. Then start developing a...

    Super Jet Does a bone stock SN Porpoise if its foam is water logged?

    Ahhh yes ok that makes sense. I know those stickers. Pretty crazy to have that much water in the hull and have it freeze, I would think much more would happen other than just the flywheel cover getting cracked. I didn't think there would be a way for the water to get in. There would have to be...

    Super Jet Does a bone stock SN Porpoise if its foam is water logged?

    Really good info here. I've been reading through old threads and it's hard to get a consensus, info seems all over the place. It does seem that water logged foam can make it worse. Mdavies thanks for that weight. One other thing we discussed, does the dry weight include the battery. That would...

    Super Jet Does a bone stock SN Porpoise if its foam is water logged?

    Hi guys, we have a 95 SN in our riding group. Mint, purchased new by the previous owner in 1999. We have had it for a few years and looked after it carefully. Only mod we have done is add a 2008+ stainless impeller. It has always porpoised. A few years ago my brother weighed the ski and it was...

    Tnt B1 chamber

    Also used in aerospace for a variety of reasons. Recently we had it done to some splined shafts to help improve assembly into the mating female spline. In general we use it to remove a very small amount of material and / or greatly improve the surface finish. I haven't seen it done to a pipe...

    Reaper in Kalamazoo MI flood

    A guy who lives in the area and has a nice collection of skis. He has started riding with our group in Portage and rides lake Michigan as well. Pretty cool dude, the SJ in that pic is also his. I believe that Reaper used to belong to Zach Bright, it's a sweet ski. I was able to ride it this past...

    Surfriding 08+ superjet tubbies

    I got a set of those pro watercraft ones and I'm excited to see how they'll work on one of my 09s. I have tried them on my 550/800 and a 750sx and they had a massively good impact to the handling.
