    300/440/550 ocean pro holeshot nozzle on an x2

    Crab you are going to jinx me! If there are any of the Motine cages at Havasu, I am going to have my parts connection pick me up one! Fat Kid, you must be Fletch's (Joe's) riding buddy and Tekwerkx on eBay huh?

    300/440/550 ocean pro holeshot nozzle on an x2

    I think that nozzle is too short to use in an X2. I had the same problem with my X2 when I put on a PJS nozzle. Turns great one way, not so great the other. PM Vitoali I think is his name on here. He was selling these little cable extenders for SXR's. Not sure if that is what you need...

    Other Am Freestyle Roll Call Nashville Tn

    I am rooting for Sluggo. Giltard didn't call me back about riding this weekend. And i was even going to come ride at Cullman since we all know he isn't allowed to ride anywhere else.

    840 X2 stuff for sale

    After riding a few friends SJ's I am all about putting a 701 Yamaha 61X Cylinder/ 62T cased engine in my other X2. I just need to fab up some bed plates... Keep us posted on your build. I am curious to see another light weight hull. I am debating on getting an aftermarket hull but I will...

    What in the world!!!!

    If you need a full rebuild, I would but a 650 engine off of eBay and an adpter plate. I wouldn't put a bunch of money into a 550 engine. Just my opinion. Then again I have a nice 650 engine I am looking to put in a 550...

    Good to hear you got things sorted out. Next time just ask us and we will point you in the right direction. You better start buying your cousin lots of beer because he will be needed for custom parts fabrication!!! Shawn is right, that steering rod is looking tweaked! Brace that bad boy up...

    Would you guys call this a barrel roll?

    I can't wait to hit up the local skate park when I get back to WV. I haven't been riding my BMX bike at all :( Huntsville has two skate parks one public, one pay and neither lets bikes in.. what a crock!

    CDI questions.

    I have a spare tow hook like that you can have if you pay the shipping. I bought a set off of eBay for an 1100 ZXi. Well the flat part on them was a little bent. Nothing major but I was ticked off. So after emailing the seller, they sent me a spare set and said keep the others. Good deal...

    SX/SXi/SXi Pro 650sx flat deck,fixed steering conversion ski

    I had a piece of 650 SX someone gave me once. It was the back half of the tray. I guess I was more of a speed demon back then because I planned to make hull extensions from the crapped hull piece. But anyway... the foam in that hull was dry as could be! Water logged foam... that must be a...

    CDI questions.

    NGK sells some connectors so you can splice coil/plug wires together. I don't have a link handy but I know they make and sell them.

    aftermarket parts for the x2

    You can get some things like bilge pump kits, WORX or an R&D intake grate, SBN carbs, Keihin carbs, mat kits, ect... from places like Dennis Kirk, Atlantic Jet Ski, and Hot Products. But for parts like ride plates, nozzles, engine performance parts, exhausts, what Shawn said was best. or my...

    Ay yes...GREAT SUCCESS!!!

    I put an X2 in the back of my mom's old explorer once. But that isn't as cool, it fit fine and I could even shut the hatch completely. I used to not have a trailer and would just back my truck down to the ramp until the tailgate touched the water. A lot of people would always say that looks...

    701 plates what happened???

    I think the best bet would be to make a pair of bed plate wings like a Yamaha has already. It would need the engine mount holes of a Yamaha and the motor mount holes of a Kawasaki. Also the coupler height AND the spacing of teh engine front to back of the ski for coupler engagement would...

    Pipe wrench on the stud and it broke... has happened to me before too the exact same way... I wouldn't try to drill/tap it yourself! You need a machine shop to mill out the bolt hole and put in a helicoil or timesert. That stainless steel stud it too tough to dril lthe hole propperly...

    Heat the stud up and melt a candle around the threads. Let it cool. Then take a hammer and bang on the stud once or twice on the end. Then try the vise grips again. As for the gouge, I would carefully sand the would exhaust area with a piece of 220 grit sand paper wrapped around a...

    24-7 backflip 7mm lamey build

    I feel ya on taking your time. Once you get 95% all tricked out, you say to heck with it and want the last 5% to be blinged out too. No sense to rush getting it on the water now, the season is probably almost over for you guys anywyas. I know I will probably ride to the end of Sept max anyways.
