Picked up this superjet from a neighbor who's had it for years, hardly ever used it but didn't want to sell until it started running bad. A $25 carb rebuild kit later and it's running great! Has a little issue that I just figured out is the start/stop switch but can't complain for $350!
I've always wanted a standup but wanted to hold out for a Superjet. Don't see too many up here in WI so I sure lucked out!
Exterior is not too bad, has some scratches here and there and the top of the hood is really bad. But the stock pads are in great condition, and it even has the stock fire extinguisher holder, nice storage for tools.
Plans are a intake grate, stock ride plate, prop, then maybe a b-pipe once I get used to the stock power.
Mods already done: bilge pump, quick-steer mod, straight-bars (in progress) w/ ODI grips, BMX finger throttle, hood-straps, primer kit and re-upholstered the stock chinpad with vinyl.
Here are some pics:
Before, sitting in the back of the dealer
You could eat off this engine!
Ouch, time for a roundnose pole maybe ?
After cleaning w/ cleaner wax, re-upholstering the chin-pad w/ $8 worth of vinyl
Found a crack in the hood and warp, nothing a bilge pump can't fix!
How do you guys like the black vinyl? Fabric store didn't have any purple to keep it retro, so black will have to do.
