Hi all, first post so be gentle!
Live in Costa Rica but due to high import taxes always on the look out for used skis in south FL area. I got a 97 GTX from an acquaintance 3 years ago and have been pretty lucky with it. I now need another work horse and have seen a good deal on a 98 GTX. Of the main parts that potentially need changing out what would be compatible with my 97 ski.
e.g. starter motor, crankshaft, filters, oil pump?
Also would these eventually work on a 98, 99 model?
I really want to stay with 2 strokes as I believe they are simpler and easier to work on.
Some context: we use the skis as safety craft in a watersports centre (fresh water) and for teaching kitesurfing. No racing or speeding around hence the workhorse comment.
