Advice on a good sea doo?

[02RxDiRunner]

im not fixing my motor it will cost over $2,000 total and id rather save that and get a different sea doo. i read alot about the rxdi and they suck in the motor category so i was wondering if yall can give me some advise on a good sea doo with reasonable price. im lookin to spend around 3,500- 4,000

All of the SeaDoos are good... but if you are buying a used ski... there is always a chance you are buying someone's junk.

I avoid that by buying someone's broken ski cheap, and then fixing it.

Well.... you could buy a 1 year old ski, with 20 hours on it, and if it was filled with water, or dropped off the trailer... it could be junk, with enough patches to make it look good.

Like I said... the skis are all good, but if you buy used... you can get junk.

I don't know about in your area, but here you see very few Honda's. A friend of mine owned one, he said Honda Aquatrax does not have a good dealer network, and parts and service are hard to find.

Your area might be different.

Ive heard the 951s suck thats why i didnt get one and i dont think honda makes skis anymore

 

[LouDoo]

Honda?

You're probably not going to get a lot of support for buying a Honda on a SeaDoo forum!

We know that SeaDoo's have their problems (like women), but we love them anyway.

i bought a broke 3ddi 2006 model had a complete rebuild of the engine and it runs like a dream and the ski stands me about half of the book price so im quids in plus i got a 1 year warranty on the engine so it might be worth you rebuilding yours but shop around for prices as i live in the uk and everyone i phoned there was huge differences in the price i ended up shipping my engine 300 miles to get best deal
