Rickter Fs-1 build

[superramjet]

I picked up a RRP Rickter Fs-1 hull at the world finals from the xscream booth. Since I still have a mound of superjet parts, I decided to build one. Its the fiberglass version, Its going to be a pump gas, fullsize gas tank, waterbox and charging electrics freeride ski. I expected it to be around 310lbs.

I want to thank Radney and Stoyer for dropping it off in Dallas on their way home and ATS aaron for meeting them and storing it till I could get down there to pick it up.

I took it to the Kansas Wildlife and Parks Dept today and got it registered as a homebuilt. It did not have hin numbers so Kansas assigned some.

You now own the two skis that I really like. Can I ask how the Rickter gets air to the motor. I know the RRP area but where else?

Thanks, This is going to get a Ed Brazina built R&D cylinder stock stroke 62t motor. It was built exactly like an older malone superjet motor.

I rode a fully built brazina boat a couple of years ago....same setup as you describe, TL'd..OMFG

it was kahn's boat from Funk motorsports.....rediculous power



I agree with BK, you suck.

I think the inside is a bit ugly and unfinished looking. First thing monday, the specialist (chad) is going to lay the red and black carbon kevlar cloth in the engine compartment. It wont add very much weight and will really make it look better. Didnt really have time to work on it today because all the halloween activities. However i did get the new trailer wheels mounted up. Cant have pretty skis on a crappy looking trailer.

So does it weigh about 115 lbs now? I agree, you think the inside would be better. How is the quality?
