Other Trying to start out!

[Zgram924]

Alright so i've been riding dirt bikes all my life and have never really been into the lake/river scene to much but last summer i went out with a few friends on their jet ski's and now i'm hooked and looking to buy a stand up but i have no idea what i'm looking for as in what's good or bad. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Zack

find a superjet, any year, 90'-95' square nose. 96'+ round nose. you can adapt it to whatever kind of riding you want to do and the parts are so vast for them.

Welcome to the X!
Good starter ski is a Yamaha SuperJet squarenose. A 94 - 95 with a 701 is ideal.
Dont worry if it is a 650; you can upgrade later.
Stay away from Kawasaki unless it is a 750 or 800. Even then they are more for racing than freestyle.
So basically find an early model Yamaha SuperJet and go from there!

Alright thanks guys. Im thinking i would mainly just use it for messing around and trying to learn tricks then upgrade from there. Thanks for your help

Super Jet! There are some for sale here in the classifieds iirc.

or a yamaha fx1 if you really lean towards freestyle.
Any superjet (701cc+ preferred) is a great place to start.

BTW, unless you just want to wrench, it's cheaper to buy one with the mods then adding them later.

Thanks guys a found a guy a few miles away from me selling a 95 fx1 for 2500 but im not sure if thats a good deal or not because i cant find any others on any sites. Ive found a few super jets to for decent prices so im going to check them out this weekend.
