Bob, billet stuff for Sea-Doo

Bob, Still haven't found the XPL seat pivots yet, but I did remember theis page
http://village.infoweb.or.jp/~fwht3369/art5/Eseadoo.htm

They have hard to find billet stuff, like choke knob plates, and beleive it or not, of all things, they have billet rubrail caps..wow I figures some other sea-doo folks may like this stuff too? Regards, Matt Burkhard

Oh yea, they are out of Japan, so the 'Jinglish' may be poor. 'Jinglish' is a term we use at work, when our handlers (machines that test computer chips) that are made in Japan, are shipped with a translated english manual. I guess Japanese doesn't translate to English very well? Come to think about it, not many languages translate to english very well Go figure. Matt

I really don't see use for any of that stuff. And if you ask me, it looks kinda ugly with the stock colours...

Bob, As far as the seat hinges, a local friend said he almost bought some, but they were $150 each. The bad news is that he can't remember who he was dealing with. He wanted to say Hot Products, but he doesn't know for sure. There number is (800)762-1633 ( I think). Good luck. Matt

I wanted to say Engine Trix? I remember someone posting about them a long time ago.

Matt I checked out that site. Billet front bumper plugs...LOL now that was funny. I'll call Hot Products to see if they have the seat hinges available tomorrow, thanks.

Bob

What happens when that billet plug hits something hard? It smashes through the bumber piece and cracks the hull. Nice!!! It wont crush like the stock plastic plugs.

Your not suppose to be hitting things!!!!! Right??

Really. If you were to hit something hard enough to cause it to push into and crack the hull, you hit hard enough to cause the damage in the first place.

I got a Sea Doo XPL that had a set of Billet pivots on it and they were made by Jet Tek in Oregon. These things are the right stuff ! Bearing pivots, and appear to be bullet proof. Call Ronnie at Jet Tek. Maybe Crammer can provide the phone number ? About $300 per set, which is way expensive, IMO, but they are definately the strongest pivots I've ever seen on an XPL. Except maybe the ones on Kenny's XPL. But that is another story

Thanks Bill It is Jet Tek and Crammer's promised me to get hooked up with a set from Ronnie since Havasu. I tried calling Ronnie but could never reach him. Cram must have flaked out I guess after I told him I hated red. I also remember the boat you got that had a set on it. (I personally would have kept those if I were you) Jeff Buckmier just drilled a hole through the whole deal and put a bolt ! Never had a problem at all. I think I'll just do that too.

Thanks Bob Asmega Mega Fast Racing
