Surf Hull for Kawasaki power train

[Ken23]

A couple years ago I invested way too much money into the engine and pump for my Kawasaki 750 SXI. I would like to put this setup in a after market hull, obviously it would not do well in a Free Style Hull, but I think it would perform well in a surf hull. It appears that some BOB hulls will accept the Kawasaki power train are there other hulls that are Kawasaki friendly?

i believe some of the EME hulls are or can be setup with kawi powertrains. the q8 might be worth looking into.

You can make your own bed plate if you want to fit it in a yami based. Just use your stock bed plate and mock up some extensions.

Otherwise there are some options if you dont want to mess with it.

Thank You I will look into both replies. If I make new bed plates will the Kawasaki pump fit many after market hulls?

Bob hull is not a good surf hull.

Ditch the Kawi pump and run Ada couplers. Hit up jetmaniac and get yamaha side for the midshaft and Kawi side for the engine.

I would like to use a Yamaha pump but like I said too much money invested not to put it to get use.

What size pump?

Rad Dudes made a conversion bedplate Kawi to Yamaha. I used one, nice piece, they may still have some or someone may have one available. http://raddudesfi.com/raddudesfi.com/Part_-_Yami_Motor_Plate.html

The rad dudes plate isnt a 100%. I sold one I didnt use and the guy was really upset with me. I ended up refunding him some money. I think he had to bring the plate to a welder. Its on pwctoday somewhere I was selling in good faith too. I'm sure it would work l, but isnt a direct fit.

I am not sure what size the pump is. It is the stock pump that came with a 1995 Kawasaki 750 SXI. Skat-Trak rebuilt it, replaced the impeller and bored it.

Just buy my tigercraft and figure it out it’s all been done before. Hell I’ll throw in yamaha pump

That's cool, stock housing. I have a hull that is fitted for a 155 pump and kawi motor. It needs a lot of work( project hull and it's not perfect, but I'd let it go pretty cheap.

I could let you know what needs to get fixed. I added diamond plate under the pole mount to beef it up. I also added carbon fiber/ kevlar on the sided. Fun hull but its 110 lbs and needs some work.

What were you asking for the Craigs listing?

 

[623pwr]

I agree a tigercraft would be better. Just trying to see what If any interest.

I think Jeremy bloms has a v1 tiger craft that he's motivated to sell. You could just use a solas 144 and be happy with the 750 motor. Sell the 142 +you have

Trinity Composite hulls are good surf hulls
