So I was out today for a ride. Came back and threw the machine on the trailer. Bounced it from side to side and noticed the common "tink tink tink" sound coming from inside the waterbox.. What was the issue with these things again and what are most people doing to solve the problem? 97 SPX

So. I was out the other day for a couple hours and when I got back I had the machine on the trailer with the seat off looking inside. I rocked it back and fourth and could hear a "tink, tink, tink" coming from inside the machine. Tried it again, sure enough its coming from the waterbox. Ive...

Was out today, machines been working great the last few times I had it out after all my carb tweaking.. Was just cruising along when there was a nice POP from under the seat and I lost power. Came to a stop and sat there thinking for a few minutes while my friends turned around and came back...

Ive read that running staggered jetting is getting old, but after looking at my piston wash tonight Im not impressed. The MAG side is just about washed clean, and the PTO has bare aluminum spots around the edges with some carbon on about 3/4 TO 2/3 of the inner part of the piston. I just...

What would you want to see for max rpms on the 787 engine? Wide open to the bar, what should it be turning, and where do you draw the line? Obliviously it can vary depending on conditions, etc. A general idea would be good.

Its crazy how dead a site gets in the winter seasons, but as soon as summers here its just pages of problems everywhere.

Ive been out in some nasty waves before. And I have had the thought about attempting a backflip on my X4 hull.. Anyone tried this and still alive to talk about it? Even on another machine, howd you make out?

Im kinda curious to see who runs their caps IN or OUT, and why if you feel like mentioning... Also what machine you have.

787 Carb Adjustments/Mods - Updated I know the 787 is quite popular, for just normal use and for racing, ect.. So Im wondering if there is any jetting/pop off settings anyone would like to share, and how they work? What their 787 Mods are, ect. I have oil injection delete and aftermarket...

I was out the other day, ran fine for about 10 minutes, startered to loose power/ drop a cylinder and wouldnt take fuel. Took it out today, worked great again for a short time.. Started acting up again, loosing a cylinder, it spat out the intake once when I tried to give it throttle.. Barly...

I CANNOT get a black bumper for my X4 Hull.. But I can get one from like a GTI of the same years.. Do you think I could simply just cut the larger bumper to fit my machine? Im out of options. I think it would work.. Anyone got some opinions?

I am after two side bumpers for my 97 SPX. I am pretty sure that all the black X4 style hull bumpers will work. Mine are cracked from the previous owner having a splash guard on there. I have called all the dealers around where I live (Canada) and one in the USA and they cant even come close...

1997 SPX 787. Alright so today I was out riding WOT and the machine lightly surges very quickly a couple times then quits like I hit the kill switch. My friend towed me back to shore where I did some investigating. The engine does NOT have a fuel problem and rolls over fine. I started to...

Just wondering if anyone else has problems acessing this site? It seems often that I cannot even load a page and it seems as the forum is down. Is this a problem related at my end or somewhere else? Thanks.

So I rebuilt my carbs this year.. I put the SAME spring color in them that was in there before. Is it necessary to do a pop off pressure test? I would think that they are fine since its the same as before. What exactly does that test do and tell anyways?

So its Spring time here in Canada. Almost summer but you would never know with temperatures sitting at 10*c. So I have started to get my SPX ready for the warm weather. I tried to remove the waterbox cap and it gave me some difficulty so I took off the whole unit. When I got the cap off I found...

So has anyone ever taken their seadoo in the rapids somewhere? I dont know where a good set would be that arent TOO crazy but would still be some fun.. Someone said the Ottawa river should have some with good depth as well.. Any ideas?

I was reading around and came across some people having problems with the DESS. It was also stated that it cannot be bypassed. I was wondering.. Is it not just a resistor type of deal the same idea that some car keys have?

I have been looking on the net pretty hard the past few days for a place in Canada to get ODI Grips. IS there any big online stores either in the USA or Canada that may sell these? Again Canada FAILS at getting the parts people need.. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Well so much for the seadoo dealer around here. It went up in smoke a few days ago.. I wasnt happy to hear about that. A lot of money went up in that fire. http://www.intelligencer.ca/ArticleDisplay.aspx?e=1295206 So I think I may need to find somewhere else to order my part from.. Problem...
