[bobob729]

What do you guys think should i get it he only want 150 for it but hes had it for 8 years and never touched it. im wondering if its worth it to go for it and try to get it running or not?

They are a challenge! My family had one for one summer when i was a kid..
I cant remember a single person ever riding it well.

 

[bobob729]

i figure it is something different. vintage a buddy has a surfjet and had a blast riding that. so i figure why not try this and see what happens.. i just like trying different things also

Never got to ride one but have always wanted to.

 

[bobob729]

Same here

 

[jduplease2002]

i would ,never rode one but for $150.00 if u never getting it running it'll be fun to shoot at

 

[Murdock]

I would put that money into your bob. $150 is still $150

 

[bobob729]

I had a wetbike in the 80's. They aren't fast, but can be fun to ride. It's a different riding experience, compared to any ski or couch. For $150 it's worth a try. Hauling them really sucks, since they're really narrow, tall, and top heavy. Finding parts is very difficult, too. If you get it running, you'll have some laughs. If you can't get it running, I'm sure you can part it out and make some profit off the other wetbike owners that desperately need parts.

BTW 2-up wheelies can be ridden for miles. That's worth $150 right there.

Doing wheels doing the champion (im number 1) is always worth a try

I would take that $150 and repaint that Superjet in your avatar!

Me and my bro ended up with Bonzi' wetbike. It's fun to ride, we like taking it to our jetski extravaganza and letting people give it a shot, always good for a laugh.

For $150 bucks I say give it a shot

i put the wetbike in the same category as the wavejammer. if it looks retarded. then you probably look even more retarded riding it... put the momey in your BOB

 

[Mark44]

back flip it!

 

[ajmps1]

if its not destroyed buy that sucker and go crazy, surf that mofo

 

[gto0209]

I tried one, they are easily 150 bucks worth of fun. The looks you get cruising it around the lake are price less. I say go for it.

 

[tor*p*do]

shat, $150 gets you an hour and a half rental on a couch on the inland waterway
may be worth a gamble if not totally ratted out
