what is this superjet worth??

[John7edward]

The seller is asking 4500. It looks super clean from the photos. Im looking to upgrade from my 650sx. any help would be appreciated.

I'm selling my 96 Yamaha Superjet RoundNose 701cc. My main focus on this build was for reliability. It runs great and never has trouble starting. The engine is healthy and fires up like a match every time. The ski has never been in salt water. It was painted a custom Lamborghini Orange Pearl Paint that changes from a Bright construction cone orange to a Candy metallic orange pearl depending on which angle you are looking at it from. The ski has brand new hydro turf, custom orange pearl power coating etc.. My ski is turn-key, water ready, just gas and go, Current Tags Paid to 2015. Lots of power and excellent snappy low-end torque.

New Hydro Turf (Padded)
Billet UMI Quick Turn Plate
Billet UMI Gas Cap (Powder Coated)
Billet UMI Trigger Finger Throttle (Powder Coated)
Billet Triton Engineering Head (180 psi)
Carbon Fiber Chin Pad (Hydro Turfed)
Coffman B-Pipe Full Exhaust System (Powder Coated)

New ODI Grips w/ Billet Endcaps

Is it waterlogged? What part of Oregon? Surf or no surf? RN's are way up on price in the NW...

 

[John7edward]

No surf, freshwater only. Im in southern oregon. What do you mean by waterlogged? The guy says it runs fine and starts right up.

 

[John7edward]

Also all the Rn i looked at in california are really high in price. A few are still on craislist from last year.

The foam can get waterlogged and the ski will be heavier than it was new - they ride heavy and not like they "should". Put it in the water, if it sits down in the rear (bond line below the water) it is most likely waterlogged. This ski should sit a little cockeyed - piped skis are usually lighter on the side with the pipe vs. stock pipe skis - but not by much.

$4500 is a good starting point for a ski with those mods and in good condition. I'd look it over in person - check for repairs to the fiberglass, etc. You can find them for less, but they are few and far between. I picked up a very clean 650 SN for $100 the other day (yes, $100, with a pipe, prop and toploader).

4500 is high for a 96 with a coffmans pipe

 

[John7edward]

xjcrawler what do you think if a fair price on this ski.

 

[Scraggly]

imo 3000-3500 is max, sounds like a clean ski. post some pics.

Ok thanks for the help guys.

 

[John7edward]

I can get a 2014 superjet 6500 put the door plus 30$ title fee. What are your opinions on that?

 

[Scraggly]

This one has at least 1500 worth of upgrades a stock ski doesn't

Depends what you want, if you want a stock ski to just ride and not do any upgrades then the 14 for $6500 could make sense. If your going to mode it then Your overpaying, Your better off paying $4500 to $4700 range for an already modified one that's mechanically sound and you'll be thousands of dollars ahead.
