95 spx

[Old dog 68]

Going to test ride a 95 spx this afternoon. Looks like a fun little wake jumper. I know the vts is probably not working and I was wondering how hers it will be to find parts. I’ve heard of trim fix but what if it’s the motor?
Thanks

You can pull the motor out and put it on a battery to test for functionality. Flip the wires around on the terminal to check both directions.

Make sure you have checked the vts boot on the outside of the hull before putting in the water

Cool thanks. Do you have an spx? Is it fun to ride?

I have a 95 xp and it's very similar. I think it just has a different size motor.

It's a blast. Extremely manuverable, light, with the vts can easily do standies, and can be submarined fairly easy.

Ease into learning tight turns. The thing is so small and will turn so fast that if your not ready for it, it will toss you every time.

The only major downside to the ski is a relative issue with it's size. It's an amazing ski when the water is flat. When it starts to get too choppy it will beat the heck out of you. I ended buying a GTX because I needed something else for the really choppy days at my lake. But don't read that wrong, the xp is my baby and given the right water conditions I'd ride it over the GTX any day
