    97 GSX 951 should I keep it?

    Just bought this thing last night. It has the motor out. I thought it was an earlier model with the 787 motor. (Which i have one of those) But it is not. Trying to decide if I want to keep this for myself. I already have 2 96 XPs. And I love them. How much faster would this GSX with the...

    96 XP Bilge pump? I want to tow behind yacht.

    First time out yesterday. I rode the ski. (What a blast) I don't know if it had water in it at that time. I towed it about 5 miles at approx 5 mph. This morning I had a good amount of water int he hull. I tried riding it, it ran fine, but it did NOT empty the water. I'm pretty sure this...

    How should I ride my 96 XP if i want it to last a long time?

    I've been hucking my sxi750 and my yamaha up on the swim platform for years. (Like 7) And i'm just tired of screwing with it. I even put a roller on the end of my swim platform. No matter what, it's a real PITA. I've used come alongs, elec winches, and i even tried to design an arm with a...

    How does one get to the and check said jet pump oil? Guess I need to use the search button. And what are the O-rings on the bailer? BTW: Advice- When out on boats if a group on a houseboat offers you some home made black berry wine. Try it, but don't drink a gallon of the stuff. My...

    How should I ride my 96 XP if i want it to last a long time?

    I use penetrating oil. Use the attached nozzle and keep fluid entering the cable by working the cable. I usually use about half a can for my steering cable. Then I coat the exposed metal with marine grade grease. How does one clean the rave valves? And I'm not sure what you mean by pump...

    How should I ride my 96 XP if i want it to last a long time?

    Thanks. I miss my sxi 750 (s). I've owned a few stand ups and they are very fun. But I can't tow them behind my boat. I usually head out on my 37' boat with my 22' in tow and a ski. I look like a small circus heading out of the marina for the weekend.:hurray: The XP is the most fun pwc...

    How should I ride my 96 XP if i want it to last a long time?

    I've owned a few of these skiis and I LOVE THEM! My last one was way too modded out. Had to change the domes just to run reg fuel. I have one that is 100% stock. Just got it. The thing seems to run great. I want to keep it this way. When cruising do i want to run 3/4 throttle? It feels...

    1996 Seadoo XP 800 787 in Kentucky $1200.00

    The guages work. The thing was running last fall. And when i turn the shaft i can feel compression. (Not exactly an accurate compression check ;) ) This could be a money maker for someone. I simply don't have the time to part everything out.
