Anyone with a 2000 speedster if you could do me a favor and take some pics of your steering column. A video of it moving left to right would really be helpful. I am having to replace the gearbox the steering wheel hooks onto and i want to make sure it matches up correctly. there are some different ways you can put the stop block in and different ways and adjustments. I had an issue where i could move the steering wheel from center it took 90 degrees to go full left turn and 180 degrees to go full right. i think someone messed with it before i bought it so i want to check a default config and make sure it is put in the correct way. Thanks a ton in advance for any help.

We just got ours in July and have had a few little issues with it. When we have had it running it has been great. We used to have a Sea Doo Explorer but sold it about 3 yrs ago.
The big pain in the rear was when we lost a back cushion on the 401. I managed to find one on ebay but is doesn't really fit right. Luckily I found someone selling a set of 2002 speedster cushions here in Ontario so I am going to grab them. I now cover my boat when towing. lol.

that is probably a good idea. Cant wait for the pics. this stupid steering wheel is the only thing that is really a problem. Cant complain though i got the boat with the monster tower bars with 2 speakers on it. trailer, huge two person tube, and a wakeboard for 5100. so that is good. stickers need some replacing but i think i am going to just remove them and get stuff painted on.

That is an awesome price. I paid 8500 but all of the boats up here are pricey. Most of the 2000 speedsters are around 12500.

Perfect. Can you confirm when the steering wheel is centered its about 180 degrees to the right for a full right turn and a 180 degrees to the left for a full left turn. Before i replaced the steering box it was 180 degrees to the right and 90 degrees to the left. Also i had to disconnect the throttle at idle cable because even with the set screw all the way out it would still give it a ton of gas when going to the right. I am still waiting on my new steering box though. Hopefully that fixes it. Thanks a ton for your help on this.
