F-neXt-1

Thanks Matt....I'll keep that in mind. So far, so good with the new engine. It's through break in and running very well. The Group K porting is very subtle, it definitely feels stronger than stock, but it not night and day diff. Also bumped the compression as part of the Group K mods and it has reduced the fuel consumprion significantly.....stock comp is really low and it was sucking fuel at first. This is an interesting beast!

You still running the B-pipe on this new motor?

Yes, it seems to work really well. I've ridden the ski a fare amount now and it's running great! The funky thing is that I never had to touch the jetting, so the B-pipe must be somewhat close to stock 900 specs. It starts right up, doesn't bog off the line and seems to be plenty rich on wide-open runs.

I love the setup but on the 1100 it seems like it will bottle neck too much.

I agree. The 900 manifold opening is 52mm and that seems about the max you can bore the B-pipe. The 1100 opening is much larger and I would worry about heat as well as a performance bottle neck. Run that Inland Jet pipe!

I have a coffman on my X2 build. I got the inland to play around with and see if I can flip it 180

Awesome build! I have a long block 1100 that I need to do somethign with. It needs a full rebuild first though

I'm running an old school PJS in-hull resonator. It basically replaced the stainless stock rear exhaust tube and acts as the muffler. It has a unique sound but isn't obnoxious.

2 year update.....been running this thing hard for 2 years now and it's doing great! It can be held wide open all day long and it flies. It fires right up every time, idles well and is silky smooth bottom to top.

The only problem I've had is a crack in the Factory Pipe chamber that I had to weld up. Strangly enough, it didn't crack where I mod'd it, but somewhere completely different. I probably have somewhere between 100 and 200 gals through it and it's still doing great. When I built this, I thought it would be a "novelty" and not really a viable ride, but it proved me wrong!

That's a real nice lookin' ski do you have any videos of this thing in action? I'd like to hear how this triple sounds with a b-pipe on it.

It sounds like a moto gp bike my favorite of his collection.

1 word can describe the sound....."WICKED".

3 year update:

Still going strong and running great (I hesitate to say this, as it usually leads to carnage!). This thing get gets held WFO for LONG periods of time and has been the most reliable and trouble free engine I've ever had. I would still like to try the 1100 someday, but for now the 900 is kickin' a$$!
