wtb jetski - zookiezook - 04-17-2012

looking to spend 1500 on one
dont need one but i know someone who has a house with a winch and lift thing but no jetski
would like a 2 or 3 seater and something fairly newer and doesnt need work

i know 15 is on the cheaper side but i dont need one and i dont really like water anyways but thought maybe someone had one they wanted to get rid of

i really dont know shit about jetskis or waverunners whatever you want to call them but i dont want some 1990's pos lol

something clean solid and cheap but i dont want to break down on the water
anyways if anybody has anything pm me

15 might only get you like a descent stand up but nothink solid. I got an 08 Honda Aquatrax turbo 3 seater for 7k if you want

Get an older Seadoo XP or Kawa ZXI 1100. My favorite though are still the older Seadoo XP's . 95 XP720, 96 XP800 or 98 XP 951 LTD. My favorite ski was still 95 XP Full Race Setup or my 98 XP LTD.

You can find them pretty cheap but make sure you do a compression test on the older skies.

If the compression is good and the skies are bogging when you test them mostly the carbs need to be rebuilt and the fuel lines if original need to be changed out. The XP's will run ya about $45 for the kits per carb and rebuilding isn't that hard.

The ZXI's run 3 carbs so a little bit more.

I used to have an XP, you can donut that thing and wheelie it till the fuel cuts off.

Yup haha the older X4 hulls I think are still the best. Turn that thing on a dime and be long gone before my friends even complete a full turn on their newer ones.

I used to run it in the ocean all the time and you can get like 20-30ft of air no problem with them haha.

I used to love my old 96xp. Problem was the damn motor mounts always broke when I took it out wave jumping.

Yea the stock were were crap. Someone used to make heavy duty ones that I had installed and the problem was solved. You just had to make sure the motor was shimmed properly on them to. If its not shimmed properly the motor mounts will fail quickly.
