BDB Kustomz SF Circus Build

[clouse22]

Been a long time since I've done a build thread on here. Always wanted one but was finally able to acquire a Carbon SF Circus. My DVX will remain my flatwater freestyle machine, so the plan is for this to be a backup ski / casual lake ripper and maybe a great lakes surf boat with a different ride plate. Picked this hull up from @zeski25 and it has exceeded my expectations. Paint is awesome and was sent with a bunch of extra hardware motor mounts etc. Also has an immaculate turf job! Freestyle Connection for the win!

HULL & BODY:

• Carbon Circus Hull & Hood
• RRP Billet Lightweight Pole w/Carbon Tubes cut to 14"
• ADA Steering System
• RRP Ninja Holds (Not Adjustable)
• OEM Hood Latch & Thurst Front Hood Hook

ENGINE:

• Yamaha 760cc w/Cylinder Porting (Will do case porting when it arrives)
• Stock Electronics w/MSD Enhancer & Lightened Flywheel (Hopefully upgrade to Zeel System in the long run)
• PFP Exhaust
• Stock 44mm Carbs
• PHP Intake w/VForce 3 Reed System

PUMP:

• OEM 155
• 6/12 Cutback prop per recommendation from multiple sources to start
• XS Gen 1 Trim System
• Stubby Cone

Enjoy the build and pics, will try to document as I go

This past Friday @mr.fixitman760 and I installed the RRP Billet Lightweight Pole. Bushings had to be sanded quite a bit to fit between the brackets but ultimately the install went very smooth. Breather tubes were already drilled. Killed me to cut the fresh carbon tubes but we had to. Ended up at 14" in length.

Looks awesome! I was soooo tempted to buy this hull, love it!

Hey man, this build looks great. Looking at a shorter pole for my Trixstar, but 14"!?!? Is that standard to go that short?

Depends on the hull and the person. Most short hulls will have a shorter pole.

For me, I like to be as "centered" on the ski as possible. But we kinda cheated here and went off the marks on the pole pad on the hood to gauge where to set. Will have a better idea when we get this thing on the water.

Sounds good. Interested to see how it works out!

I have an older Trixstar and im an ogre...

Looking good

Finally got this thing together…couple hiccups along the way. Hoping to get this thing on the water in the next few nights. Need to get a coupler cover and replace the ugly stock spark plug boots but I’m happy with how it all went together!

Sharp! I been looking for a way to keep water away from the carbs in my freak if it rolls over, if you have any ideas...I'm at 20" tube length on the Badass

Take a decent sized piece of turf and lay over carbs without your filters on…press down, cut out holes. Reinstall, then put your filters on and wrap. That’s what I’ve seen many do with that issue

Not too bad for a little 760 out of the box =] @JetManiac this prop pitch was pretty spot on!!

How are you liking the setup so far?

How are you liking the setup so far?

its a fun ski, flips & spins with ease. Perfect backup ski to keep me on the water until my new hull arrives.

best part is the increased fuel mileage hah…5 gallons goes a long way in this setup

Goes to show you don't need a massive motor to flat water backflip !!! Nice build

The record right now on this machine is 3 flips in a row! So it combos as well. Made for a fun challenge for all who rode it at Brave the wave this past weekend

That's badass! Love it when guys prove it can be done without big money monster motors
