I should have said stronger on the BOTTOM end.

my 750sx would go 50+ the SN650 barely went 40.
but the SN would sail off of a wave without having to get a running start.

Ive owned both boats, the SN650 is MUCH peppier down low.



Um ok... my friend had a 750 SX and a 650 SN. I must say the SN was pretty weak. My modded 650 Kawie would eat it up. Hard to see a modded 750 be weaker than a 650 SN. Might have been a tuning issue with the 750,




I am a Kawie guy and I am reluctant to switch. Mainly because all of the performance parts I own are for a Kawie. But I will say that YZ250FPilot's 701 RN flat out rips off teh bottome end. I wouldn't be a too die hard Kawie lover to put an engine liek that in my X2!

I will say this, Kawasaki has Yamaha beat on the pump/driveline maintenance side of things. Heck I never worry about shimming engines of pumps. Just bolt it in and go!

This is a fair assessment,but the part in red cannot be simply overlooked either,it all boils down to what you are doing with the ski and what your skill level is.If you are just riding and jumping waves any standup will suffice,if you are going for big tricks and big airtime you will need big power and light weight and the Kawi platform really isn't the most ideal candidate for that.That being said my skill level does not justify me buying a Superjet at this time. :burnout:

hard for me to imagine not going for it, regardless of amplitude. you almost make it seem you only ride for transportation, thats the only time i can see it not making a difference. i didnt know there was even anyone on this site that had a skill level where a sj would be excessive..:sad6:

You have to ride both and you will realize it very fast. I had a decent 750, and they I got a superjet. The difference is unbelievable. I hit wakes at 5 mph and get as high as people hitting them on sxr's at 15 mph. Superjets just have a lot of low end snap, the nose rides higher, and they are lighter out of the box.

If you rode a lightweight one, you would really ******** your pants.

does the SN ride any different than a RN. Say they had the same engine and all the same mods. would they ride any different. I have been told that the bottom of the hull is the same is this true? If it is i would think all the same mods... they would ride just about the same?!?

also can i get some of you to post pics of your RN SJ?

Yes they ride just about the same. The weight is proportioned a little different and the handlepole is mounted a little lower, but that's about it.

If you want pics, just dig around in the My Ski or Ski Buildups forums.

all skis ride different. idk what it is. seemingly minor things make a difference.
imo they are way different feeling.
