Say Lou, you said you had a 96 before. My next project is gonna be a 95 800 when i find one for the right price. How do you like the 95 to the 96? Any major differences in ridability with the longer pump? Funner?

Honestly I can't tell a lot of difference, in the ride or performance, I do like the hump seat, and it looks cool. The one I have doesn't have the original "X" engine so some of the purists wouldn't approve. It's got a rebuilt SBT premium engine. Other than the engine I've kept it pretty much stock, pink graphics and all.
I don't have any recent pics. this one is a couple of years old, the ski is at the lake, I'll get some new pics. next time I bring her home.

lol.
literally just last night, I was walking around the garage for 5 minutes looking for something to soak, threw some old sockets in there and an impeller...
I felt like that palmolive lady...

The 85/88 is smaller then stock... more force, I still swear by the buttdyno I gained both acceleration and top end with my R&D nozzle setup and stock impellar.Well, isn't the 85/88 nozzle slightly larger than the stock nozzle? If so, the velocity of the water exiting would be a bit slower. This would allow you more holeshot, but less top-speed. 57 is still pretty damn good on this tiny little rocket sled

Took my pipe up to a local shop today to get the freeze plugs fixed.

Hey what is that from exactly? Mine has the same weld but I've always wondered what was there before. Ive seen multiple people on the forum talk about it.

When they cast the aluminum pipe they use those holes to get the sand mold out.

Do they like rust out or something? why would they even need to be re welded?

They will corrode from the inside and then leak water inside the hull.

What is the best way to remove and reinstall the Allen bolts on the 787 exhaust pipe without wedging the Allen wrench against the pipe?

Ive always had good luck with these actually. Theyre nice and tall so they fit above the pipe.

Is it the ball joint part that makes it stay away from the pipe? I've got the 96 xp

It just sticks up above the pip because theyre nice and tall so its easy to turn.
Buy a stubby 17 MM wrench.
Oh wait, you said the allen bolts..... I didn't have trouble. I think I used a allen socket.

I tried using my 3/8 Allen socket but it was to short so the ratchet hits the pipe so I had to use a regular Allen wrench to get them off and it still scrubs the pipe when I turn it.

These are the Allen bolts I'm talking about removing. The 2 that are closest to the carbs.

Buy a good craftsman set of loose Allen keys and its a 8mm and cut the short end of Allen wrench in half so it's a stubby and it won't scrub the pipe!

These make life easy, they have a ballhead so you can manuever the tool around a bit.
