Crap, did you seal up the intake in the back of the flame arrestor also? I am have some insane water ingestion issues.
I hope that was a misprint, I left the rubber plug in the rear but chopped the part that intrudes into the FA off.

Did R&D end up making you a 650 specific pump cone or did you end modifying the sxr cone?

Check out the custom diamond plate, and handholds.
Got it out for the maiden voyage today, it ran good but is way rich on the jetting. I almost got close on the high speed at 1/2 turn out, but will need to adjust the low to be able to get it rideable. Midrange at 1/2 throttle was very nice after it comes off the low transition, new plugs are black.

Not sure who you are asking, but I believe they are altering the SXR cones.:biggthumpup:

I got one. Someone just took a dremel to the inside and made a spacer for the back.

If they don't start making modified big hub pump cones I am going to just cut the shoe off a 650 pump and slip it on a 750/800 pump. It is pretty much all doable with a sawzall and a light touch. You just need to slip the 650 shoe over a 1/2" of exposed wear ring on the 750 pump and you are done. Pretty much eliminates all this 6mm cutting back we always need to do and we can run all the SXR stuff right out of the box. You will just need to stuff something in the impeller to hold the coupler tight to the motor like a piece of rubber.
Great Job Crab!!!
Hi Crab,
GREAT JOB!!!! Thanks for all the pictures and info you provided. I now have some X-2 Hulls to start working on.
Can I ask what type of exhaust you used on the 750 engine? Did you use a West Coast Head pipe? Is the tail pipe a standard pipe or a custom after market? For the 750, what modes did you do to the 650 pump and what pitch impellor are you using?
I was thinking of modifing the hulls like you did, but going for more of a deep vee style from the front all the way back to the inlet grate. Was there a reason why you did not go for more of a vee shaped hull?
You do great work and it shows.
Thanks
Richard Owen

How about a thin spacer behind the coupler on your crank to space the coupler closer to the driveshaft?
