I bought this from trademe a couple of weeks before xmas to replace my 93 blaster, it looked like a minter with factory pipe and 'recently rebuilt engine' but it seized a week later I pulled the donk out and sent it off to Roger for a rebuild and a few upgrades, it sucked being without a ski for most of January but i'm making up for it now! Full rebuild with Hotrods Crank and Pro-x Pistons Freestyle porting ADA Head with 35cc domes (185psi) Factory B Mod Pipe Dual Cooling Jetworks Flow Control Valve Solas Concord 14/18 Prop Riva Groovy Rideplate Works Scoop Grate Hydroturf Mats
That must be one of those new warped flow com rods, hear they're rather rare :lol: Thats looking mint dude! so do ya know why it siezed after ya got it?
Thanks The rear piston and head dome had some nasty pitting from detonation so i assume it was just too lean, not sure whether it was tuning on the carbs or an air leak but both carbs got rebuild kits and retuned after that
The cases havent been touched, i'm pretty stoked with the power at the moment it hits hard in the midrange but could do with a little more punch down low... the prop is too high pitched for the surf but I dont want it revving its ass off on flatwater rides so dont want to change that if I can help it. I think next on the list are MSD Enhancer to up the timing in the lower rpms and lightened flywheel to help it get to the phat midrange quicker.
What settings are on your b-pipe You can find a crap load by getting those right The prop you have will be fine Msd will be a good add on Be careful about the flywheel lightening as they are prone to cracking and sawing of the front of your engine V-force reeds will add to the low end hit on your ski as wel
3/4 out on top, middle and bottom closed pipe doesnt seem all that hot so could probably be closed up some more? I am wary of flywheel lightening - was planning on sending it to Roger to do as he seems to know his stuff. Anyone else had theirs lightened? was it worth it? V-force reeds look interesting, might have to add them to the list of winter jobs
Your motor will run flat at that setting go for bottom open 3/4 and then top and mid cloased the b-pipe is all about low end and when you have the water settings to give you more low end they go flat far to quick The flywheel lightening gives you a small boost but its not alot and its also kinda uncool when it saws the front of your engine V-force will give you a hit that will put a smile on your dial
thanks wax I've got a commercial tiny tach on its way so i'll wait until that arrives before playing with the screws, it'll be good to have some numbers to confirm performance changes
No problem A tiny tach is a great thing it will allow you to actually get data and prove if the parts are making a difference as well
Iv go both a lightened flywheel and V force reeds and its break neck snappy! lol And iv got a stupid low pitched prop which kind helps! lol
