    hey lads I've got a 1995 Yamaha fx1 and I'm wanting more performance from my stock ski, what sort of mods are common on these models ?

    pretty much same sort of stuff as a superjet , generally the first mods are, aftermarket exhaust (most commonly a B-Pipe exhaust), MSD enhancer CDI , up the compression (skim head or aftermarket head). they will give you decent gains

    While we're on the topic, whats the go with that hybrid 61x/62t engine? Its the 62t twin carb bottom end, with the 61x barrels right? Anyone know if they go good, or is it just internet BS?

    thats not a hybrid, what you are referring to is a normal twincarb superjet / blaster1 engine.

    650 = 6m6 cylinder , 6m6 cases
    701 single carb = 61x cylinder , 61x cases
    701 twin carb (superjet/blaster1) = 61x cylinder , 62t cases
    701 twin carb (raider etc) = 62t cylinder , 62t cases
    760 twin carb (blaster2 , gp760 etc) = 64x cylinder (still marked as 62t on the casting) , 62t cases

    the 61x cylinder has lower port timing , makes it more snappy down low. 62t cylinder has bit higher port timing, better for mid / top
