ACE vs 4-tec

A Prius can hit 75, so can a Vette. Which one will get there first? It's not about the destination, it's about how fast you get there.

Thats wisdom spoken there!!

I think its time to calm down on 75mph 2 strokes, they are not that common. My gpr was pushed pretty hard with mods and 72-73 was about it with my 175 on it and it was usually 70-71. My daughter hit 74.1 once in perfect conditions but couldn't repeat it.

There are a LOT of guys that say their 2 stroke did 75, and most of them were full of BS.

Setting GP conversions aside, getting to and crossing the 75 barrier is nothing to sneeze at, although certainly its much easier than it was back in the day since we have other people's work to copy but there is still some serious expense involved. 70 really doesn't take much but 75? that takes some effort and each mile or two after that requires deep pockets.

I've ridden with some seriously fast ski's 85+ and not a single one said "boy, that was cheaper than expected"

Boy has this thread really gone off topic...

Back on the subject on the 300 I asked the dealer if bought one how much he would give me for it in 3 years he told me between 11000 and 13000 depending on hours and whether it was a fresh water or salt water ski . That was after you bought it brand new for 16000 . And I don't think that included state luxury tax .

that seems about right, depreciation for brand new anything once it leaves the showroom is usually a ball buster.

Its one of the reason's I don't buy new cars/boats/ski's besides the obvious:

A) wife would kill me
B) i'm cheap

I generally prefer for somebody else to take the 20-30%% hit and pick it up after they upgrade.

I keep dreaming of an ACE 900 X4. Tune it to 110hp and have a light, reliable and efficient wave jumper. Also future proof it for when the EPA nazis ban all 2 strokes

Find one with a clean hull, I want a 787 powered spark.

Ew, I can't stand spark hulls. Love the concept, but I'm holding out for the next iteration

 

[racerxxx]

Perfect, I love the look and the way they ride.

 

[IDoSeaDoo]

Haha, perfect, if I ever come across one, we can trade
