RICKTER talk

[dmpus]

I was thinking to eventually move ebox on the side and make room for 2nd tank. Thats a good feedback, thanks.
How do you have it mount it? Is hull drilled through for the mount brackets?

Glassed in mount. If I need more fuel I just go back to my surf/rec ski. Not spending 30 + minutes riding a 1200.

Everytime you need to access the exhaust manifold to change clamps for example you will have to take the ebox out to reach it.

I like to have easy access to all my ski's parts as much as possible.

Anyways let us know what happens when you land a barrel roll on the side of the ski

It's a Rickter......they laugh in the face of side landed rolls

We are talking about the Ebox and how it holds up when mounted on the side of the inside of the hull, not about the Rickter hull itself

 

[Jet_jase]

Side mounting ebox isn't something new. As Long as it's fitted correctly I can't see it being a problem. Think of how the fuel tank is held down. Never seen the mountings break for those.

Right as long as it's mounted good and doesn't come loose. Had some nasty sflip attempts and throw aways in 10 ft surf and never had an issue. Not really worried about it for freestyle use but I could be wrong.

Mines coming soon too, Cali registration? Tax? Tips and tricks lol ... Tax on 6g's is a chunk of change! Almost cheaper to keep the superjet hull wink wink

 

[TheCoz43]

If you register it as a home built hull it doesn't cost much.

 

[Jamo07sj]

I keep seeing that on other threads. But when they ask you "what you paid" or ask for the receipt and see the 6k you paid...

 

[badvinny]

If you are thinking of lying about the price to bring it into Canada (don't see your location), I don't recommend that, but would be happy to hear the fallout. You won't be first, but you will be next!

 

[Big Kahuna]

Are the Rideplates std Superjet Pattern (Edge) or is it specific.

 

[Jamo07sj]

I'm in Cali . Not considering lying never suggested that lol. Just no on seems to be crying about the 600$ tax so maybe dmv just isn't asking??

If I was in Canada i would have a lumberjack flanel and a snowmobile not a jetski.

After I register I will clarify on his thread whether they have you pay the initial tax or not.

In cali, With new cars and trucks you cannot avoid sales tax even if you bought from out of state tax free. When you go to register it they will nail you. There IS a loop hole (put 10k miles on vehicle before taking it to dmv) but I don't see this being viable with a jetski.

With used vehicles you can lie about what you paid but run the risk or them checking the sellers release of liability

 

[Big Kahuna]

Your going to pay tax regardless. If you bought from another state and they did not charge you tax, you pay it in your state where you registered it.

 

[Jamo07sj]

I figured , and I don't think any legitimate loop holes exist unless you say it's home built and value is xxx$

 

[Jamo07sj]

Are the Rideplates std Superjet Pattern (Edge) or is it specific.

On blowsion website the bolt patterns look different, but I with new holes drilled maybe.

Edit, sorry I thought you meant xfs and edge not sure about superjet

 

[Big Kahuna]

Pattern looks similar to a SJ pattern. That is what I was wondering. Would a carbon SJ plate fit the edge.

 

[JRock637]

They are different and do not work on each other. I'm not even sure the edge an xfs plates are the same. I'd assume they are not.

I did not expect the XFS plates to fit anything but the XFS. The Edge or older EVO (FS or FR) I was not sure if there was any difference.

 

[dmpus]

The rideplate holes dont match between evo and edge, but its same width
