Hi all,
I just wanted to share my happiness with everybody
After many months of saving and looking I got a fully stock 2002 RN SJ:thewave:. I used to be a complete Kawi guy, I still have my FS/FR 550, but most of my attention will go to this new baby.
I will use this ski for lake riding and for practicing freestyle tricks. I plan to go bigger once I handle this power setup
The good:
- very low hours for the year ( I say about 40)
- totally stock
- no salt water riding ever
- perfect pump (liner looks new, prop is still green - justhe usual mark from waterflow, grease smells new)
- hull is mint, just a few scratches
The bad:
- Had a tiny accident on lake - hit by a couch - first time rider on a RXPX255:haha::twak:
- cracked pole + chinpad (can still ride)
- cracked hood where the oem container is
The plan:
- getting another hull from Maris Racing Latvia (memebr here), (OEM hull with: full carbon fiber reinforcement, defoamed, low nose + bracket, low hood with holds, rickroy footholds, scupper valve, turf all around + 2 color paint!) and putting my 2002 internals in prepped hull. Maybe a alu pole, or get new OEM pole and shorten it.
- Already got a SJ 2008 impeller - should fit right there in the 2002 pump? + nozzxle boring + pump blueprinting
- Factory Pipe with "Wammer Mod"
- Racelogic sport port porting - Will gladly get one from somebody
- Steering mod
- rejjetted carbs without choke.
- straight bars
- oem ride plate or D-cut?
- cut oem intake grate or aftermarket?
-A/M head - will not shave the oem one, as it can be used in big bore engines.
As you can see I am doing this step by step, trying to save as much money as I can, but still get a "quality product".
Good that most parts will be bolt ons after I am done with transplant
Let me know what you think. Free mods are more than welcome! Thank you for all the future answers to my Q's, which I wll surely ask :newangel:
