Did I get a good deal??

[NW Lover]

I bought this 1995 FX1 sight unseen. The few things I know about it are that it has alum, hand pole, quik steer, ride plate. intake grate and a bad motor. I had to have it. I paid $500 cash for it. Do you think I got a good deal???

I have 2 extra 62T motors ready to drop in. One stock and one mod.

yes sounds like a decent deal... you can take the bad motor and part it out and make most/some of your money back depending on its condition...

Also can't tell but that hood looks like it doesn't have the channel in it for the fire extinguisher... might be a custom blowsion hood.

i'll take it for 500
wanna sell?

 

[NW Lover]

Not for sale. My kids are looking forward to riding it.

Very good deal IMO. I payed $500 for an old worn out hull with just the hood and a few random parts.

I am hoping to just drop in one of my spare motors and ride it this summer. It never seems to work like that.:crying:

I have been buying my ski's in Portland OR, In Boise where I now live the potato heads think they are worth a Gazillion bucks. I can get 2007 SuperJets for $5000 and SXR's for $5500 new in the crate. These Idaho jokers are wanting $5000/$6000 for a 2004 and single trailer. Being landlocked really sucks!!!:skull2::skull2:

 

[Talsivar]

Dang!! That's my ski!!! It was stolen out of the back of my truck in astoria or. I know you can't have a title with it!! I'm contacting the police right now!!!
Ha,Ha, just joking i was talking to him about it to. He offered it to me for $400 but i wasn't sure i wanted to deal with the no title thing. And while i was deciding you grabbed it.

 

[NW Lover]

Those who hesitate, ride Kawasakis. LOL. The one good thing about Idaho is you dont need titles for boats older than 2000. So you just register it and then go back in a few months later with the boat pay $8.00 and they give you a title.:bananalama:
Talsivar do you live in Portland?? I am going to come pick it up in a few weeks and I wan to go ride. I am looking for some people to ride with.

 

[Talsivar]

It's for the best anyway i have 2 roundnoses already.the one i'm building now is putting me in the poor house. so you probably did me a favor since i couldn't resist. wish more places did registration like Idaho it would make things so much simpler.

 

[Snackem]

Good deal. Those FX1s are a lot of fun.

 

[infamy]

congrats, sounds like a good deal to me. its probably got a handful of other goodies in there. drop a motor in that bad boy and ride it. :bananalama:
