Hello folks I have been buying and selling sea doos for several years now, most all I have had to rebuild in some way , today I pulled one out that I have had for a while and it is a 95 xp 800 with the 787x hump seat single gauge pretty nice ski and all. I was going to sell it for $500 but after looking around just being stumped by the x that I had never seen on a 787, I found this thread. Are these skis still sought after ? how do I tell what number in production it was ? Should I part it out fix it up or sell it like it is? I guess with these skis you never know everything .

Thx but...
Thanks man, but I already got one on both my X4's. What I could use more of is time to rebuild two motors before the season really revs up. Been bogged down with house work and Challenger issues. Got a stuck impeller on it, applied a ton of propane heat and 2' breaker bar as well as impact gun and nothin'! It IS a regular thread: counterclockwise to spin off? I think I might need to get one of those super air guns. That or take it somewhere. I'm losin' hope :boxing_smiley:

I'm leaving PA right now with 5 bills in my hand. Be there in 16 hours.
[MENTION=24968]wjoeyjr[/MENTION] An "X" motor is rare. Very rare. Not that its all that special...lol its just rare. And as a collector, we like rare.
You have to post a picture of that number plate.
Id say running its a $1500 ski as it sits, $2000+depending on how much elbow grease you put into it.

I think they are going the way of the 67 Corvette 427. More of those have been sold in the us than where ever made

lol, I do enjoy the show, although they gradually are adding more drama and less cars, which pisses me off, but the premise is good, and I enjoy seeing the process.
one day there will be a jet ski resto show, and i'll DVR every episode.. even if the host sucks.

[MENTION=41828]Minnetonka4me[/MENTION] has a source that says that they only made 500 that were setup for racing. The number of the actual 95 800 was alot higher so the the hull is not as rare as we were all thinking.
So you have one of the rare ones

so what do you guys think I should ask for it? I took the motor out and pulled the head and thats when I noticed the x I was just going to clean it up and put new rings in it ,every thing in the motor looks good and clean nice tight rods pistons look good cylinders look good etc , I figured since it was dirty inside the hull it proubally needed a full rebuild, but it is no where close to needing one.
