Concerns on a 05 RXP.

Hello, new to the forum.
I grew up on the water and have not been on the water for some time. Back in high school my family had an old Yamaha 2stroke ski. So there some bio on me.
Now I'm looking into getting a 05 RXP, I have done my research on them, I know about the supercharge rebuild at 100hrs and the ceramic washers. I try.d to do a search and came up empty, so if there is any other thing I should know please let me know.
Thanks.

Potential valve issues...

Pretty sure it is the exhaust valves if I am not mistaken. The early models are hollow and the break off and do plenty of damage to the engine. There are update vales that eliminate this issue. I will do a search to see if I can give you more accurate information.

Ok thanks so with the ski I'm looking has roughly 150hrs on it. So from that thread the valves and chain should be replaced?
