I just bought a 1990 Yamaha Superjet Hull, Hood, Handpole, and misc. 650 parts. I plan on building up a 701 for it. I plan on having this build done around april or may. As of now I have removed the turf, footholds, and exhaust; and in the process of defoaming the hull. When that is done I will...

I had fun.

If your riding friday let me know, I'll be down to ride.

I guess I will just go with the fiberglass and use a black pigment additive so it isn't a nasty epoxy color all inside the engine area.

thanks..I had no idea...Do you know why that can only be used?

Did you use epoxy or the liquid hardener for the mat?

Any other ideas of what I could do. Types of chemicals/mat to use?

LOL...Never rode an sxr but i'm sure the superjet is a lot better for freestyle....I know it may suck to refoam but I actually enjoy working on my ski....The harder the project the more fun I have....Its great to see your work slowly start to turn out into a bad ass ski.

Well the hull I bought has footholds already in it but I would feel much more comfortable if I know they are 100% sealed in there. And it will be a winter build so I will have plenty of time to work on it..Oh yeah I almost forgot...I want to install a 2" one way and have a scupper as a backup...

I plan on droping a 701 in it and using it for flatwater freestyle(live on a lake)...I am not very good yet but I plan on going all out with this ski.I guess a 3/4 barrel roll time after time will take it's toll on the hull...I want to refoam it and reinforce it with carbon twill but not sure...

I will be picking up a square nose this week and am wanting some ideas on refoaming. I was thinking about using 1 or 2 layers of carbon to reinforce the engine bay and foot tray. The refoaming part i'm not to sure about and I have read a bunch of different posts. I was thinking of using 2lb foam...

I am going to be going to the competition this saturday. I am wondering If I will be able to launch my ski at ramsey creeek park. and ride and be able to beach it away from the race area.

What day are you going to be riding down there..I'll try to meet up with you guys.

I hope I can get out of work that weekend.....I am deffinately wanting to come hang out. I wish I had a bit more experience with freestyle so I could compete. What are the times that everything will start that weekend.

for the dash pad i plan on using grey underpadding for the gap between the knob and primer

I want to put footholds in my 1990 650sx but i don't want to spend the money when i have a bunch of glass mat and resin. Has anyone ever made footholds before? I figure if they are homemade then they will most likely fit yout foot a lot better than a one size fits all type. If anyone has any...

it is very similar but it has the a checkered flag stripe at the end....i think the 750sx's have them......i think im going to wait on the turfing and put footholds in so i guess i will have to scrap the plastics at that point.

I took off the side pads and the one in front of your feet and it seems like a dumb question but am i supposed to turf directly to the hull or am i supposed to take off the padding on the plastics that i took off and turf that? I bought some grey underpadding to make up for the gap where the...

bump

Thanks man, that sounds like a good idea....If anyone knows where to get the tool at let me know...Im sure i will be rebuilding more down the road.
