Default Personal Watercraft (Jet Ski)

Heres my '94 Sea doo Bombardier (no pun intended) 2 seater. Its yellow and one ugly looking Jetski. But It Has been overhauled and a 782cc Rotax 110hp motor has been dropped in its place. Runs good, and sounds like a super bike when i run it in my drive way. Been trying to find any upgrades for it but have no luck. heres some pics....

I recommend to NOT get a 2 seater, Mine has a weight limit of 350lbs. But getting a socnd person on it is no easy task, it will flip over if you don't get on fast enough, even with a combined weight of the two people being 300 lbs.

My parents have a 98 Kawasaki 1100 3 seater -- I weighed nearly 275 at the time and got that sucker up to 55 MPH... that was fun!

if you put the 110 in it there are a ton of upgrades. Your cross breeding and building a ski that Sea-Doo didn't come out with untill 95-96. Just look for stuff for the 96 XP or the 95 XP800.
