There is lots of performance to be had modifying the system. All the water you can keep out of the pipe and waterbox w/o melting the exhaust tubes will produce more torque.

Is there a reason you need bigger carbs. If you do need them I would go with novis or blackjack carbs

Well I want bigger carbs so I can get a more demanding prop perhaps and I really want to replace the ones I have
The 787 really doesnt respond to one mod. I would recommend doing a spec 1 or rossier pipe, shaved head, flame arrestors and a rejet, and the rev limiter first...then a set of carbs. The old buckys arent bad but novis are the best.

Okay I have benn liking for a pipe flame arrestors and rev limiter but I can find them
When they pop up you gotta have the $$ no effin around. They are around. You can buy the arrestors and adaptors new. I think I have a rev limiter...

Agreed also buy smart and from known trustworthy sellers like Minnetonka I can personally attest that he sells great parts at a good price.

There is a great deal on Ebay on almost new Buckshots right now for $300. There is also a Rossier pipe and a Factory pipe on there.

i'm a big fan of my spec1, and I LOVE water injection, it was a very noticeable difference when I added it. Granted yes there are downsides, mainly the risk of a filter/jet getting clogged and burning things up, i'll take that risk because I appreciate the added umph when I hit the throttle, and so far I haven't had any issues. I've never been interested in AM carbs myself, and I could be wrong but I don't think carbs are necessary for a prop swap, I know I ran a swirl, and my buddy john ran an xo in our 96's and both of us had stock carbs.
Med slip on top...All the CF is really nice, I also like their hammered stuff.
Just keep your eye out for "hotbabepwcparts" and "jetskijunky" on ebay. Two long time con artists to the community. I know hotbabe has a spec 1 on there that looks all cobbled together..I would advise to stay far away.

Slick!
I went with medium slip on top with yellow stitching, side 2 smooth bright yellow vinyl, tail smooth bright yellow vinyl, and side 1 black carbon fiber.
Got a matching beer hugger also! :thumbsup:

Skew,
Do you have a "hump" seat on your XP from a 95 XP800 or 99 SPX? cause that's what your ordered if the line art is correct. It you have a stock "flat" 96 XP seat the "hump" seat cover will not work. Just checking so you not out any money.

Yep I've got a 95 xp800 seat.
Can't wait to see how it turns out.
I forgot to mention...but I think if you drop my name and group (Nick Twin City Jet Pilots) they will hook you yup with some sort of discount, matching can koozie, etc.

I asked if I could get a matching koozie because I had seen some of the guys with them. She said sure i'll tell them to fix you up! No extra charge for it either.

Yea that's my only problem is that I like to take my time when I buy stuf, but you said you had a revlimiter?
You might want to find a pipe first. If its a complete setup it will come with one.

I received my Jet Trim seat cover the other day and when I opened it today I noticed the colors were way off. It was supposed to be black and white but was more of a black and "peach". I called them up and they were very nice & helpful and explained that the white must have had an adverse reaction from the lamination process. They offered to replace the seat cover if I cut the messed up one into a bunch of tiny pieces and took a picture. So I busted out the scissors and camera but couldn't bring myself to destroying a perfectly good seat cover just because the colors were messed up. I ended up calling them back to see if I could buy the cover off them to put on my SPX since its kind of a loaner ski and I dont really care what it looks like. They sold it to me for a good price and it helped us both out.. it wasn't a total loss for them, the stock cover on the SPX has a rip in it that I've been just living with, and I can get some practice installing seat covers before I do my main ski. This was my first experience dealing with Jet Trim and I must say I'm very pleased with their customer service. I will definitely recommend them to friends and go with them again if I need anything else. :thumbsup: I wish I could afford one of their computer chairs!
