It's a 99 Seadoo GSX Ltd - produces 130bhp. The engine is made by Rotax

The engine is famous for being quite short-lived, although at ~70 hours I haven't had to rebuld it yet!

Anyone?

 

Monday morning crew?

 

jlanng -- I've wondered about this for winterising my 2stroke "classic" Suzi. The only recommendations I've had are from shops / specialists in marine outboards.

I guess you'd have to check yellow pages for contacts of your nearest.

At a push you could use WD40 in the bores which will keep everything free. Is it a 2stroke or 4stroke motor?

 

That's a good idea - will phone an outboard service centre!

It's a 2-stroke 951cc jetski

'preciate it

 

jlangg -- what make is it? I've often wondered what a bike would be like if you could put a f*ck-off jetski / outboard motor in it, as they are designed to be very compact.

In the 70s, a Koenig-powered bike came 2nd in the 500cc bike world championship -- posthumously. Full story and pics at:

It was a 500cc flat-4 disc valve, I heard it at Oliver's Mount in Scarborough way back. Sounded awesome.
