1995 Yamaha FX1 Bought it back in Feb, had it 3-4 weeks and it threw a rod smashing one cylinder and right through the bottom of the crank case. Piston met head. Lost a few mods coz of this! Bought another ski as a donor while I look for a third engine... Now has: Jetted carbs 180psi head Alloy flywheel Factory B Pipe Timing advance Stainless Prop Aftermarket bars When I find another engine I will copy the port job from the broken one, and get new domes for the Riva head! Also thinking about going (proper) footholds and tubbies for the other hull, as well as a blue paint job (or at least move away from pink and purple). By rumb1e By rumb1e By rumb1e
Wouldn't start so pulled the engine apart to find that it had a rusty crank due to a shitty rebuild by Titty1 (Trademe). Now has: Rebuilt & Jetted carbs Stock head Alloy flywheel Factory B Pipe Mild port job Boyesen Pro Series Carbon Reeds HotRod crank Adjustable Rev Limit Stainless Prop UMI Racing Bars Pro-tec Intake Grate Riva Rideplate Stainless Prop
Yeah thats the other ski I had when I found it cheaper to get my engine parts by buying another ski... This is getting the new footholds. The squares were in there already - bastards on ya feet!
Rumble, is that a dedicated FX1 'B' Pipe or a Superjet one? If it's a Superjet one, were there any fitment issues? Mate has an FX1, wants a pipe (preferably a 'B'), but the proper FX1 version is a touch hard to find! Cheers.
