Its summer time. Who else loves them some jetskis?!

Summer in AZ means the motorcycles get put away and the jetskis get pulled out. Just had my first lake day yesterday. I swear, without them I couldn't live in Arizona.

I am trying normal jetting vs the reverse jetting I had previously run in my superjet. So far so good, more tuning needed though, god I hate carbs

Re: Its summer time. Who else loves them some jetskis?!

Back in the day..long long ago, we were ate up with the jetskis... I had a 650 superjet.. my buddys all ran Kawasaki 750s..
I turned mine into a 685 sleeper..with groupk out of your state..man that thing came alive when I added a riva pipe and a progressive prop..
We even raced a local circuit some..but had way more fun on the river..then the watercops shut us down..boooo
Fun times..!!

Heck yeah! Group K is good stuff. I've spent hours reading their tech docs. I started on kawi's until I rode a superjet, never looked back. My current 97 was a 701, I bored it 3mm to a 760, added dual 44mm carbs, jacked the compression from stock 150 to 220psi, ported/widened the exhaust ports, B pipe, vforce 3 reeds, ignition with rev limiter removed, skat prop, works intake grate, not sure on the ride plate currently lol. I'd love to add a programmable zeel ignition eventually but thats money I just don't have.
