While I dont hve any parts for ya I did race them awhile back and have a 91 superjet and an SXR 800. Both are modded and pretty fast. I love my standups...They are the only way to go. Lemme know if you have any quustions about how they work, problems,the best ways to turn, all that good stuff. Most fun you can have on the water for your money!

nah there's still plenty of lakes that allow them. in fact the only lake i can think of that doesn't is tahoe...

try craigslist, I've seen some parts/engines and ads for service on jetskis. [patriot]

Honestly a pipe and prop are the single biggest things you can do to a 550. It wont really wake up till you have one. And ps..750 sxi= slow...No bottom end. Get an 800 sxr or a superjet. Only way to go IMO. I would prob get an longer ride plate and sponsons for that 550. They are pretty squirely and sponsons will keep you stable in the turns

I'll sell u one for 200 it's a 440 with head work water box pipe impeller ride plate carb a bunch of stuff but doesn't run cause the wiring got fried when I submerged it one time.

If I have the wireing from a 300 will it work for that 440 ?

Umm I'm not sure but I have all the wiring on my parts ski still an I'll give u that one if u buy the other. But I will say skis with mods are fun as shit but are so temperamental but when here working good there's nothing better!

the wiring is pretty simple on these. They run off a stator and usually have a cdi box that controls ignition timing off a crank trigger. If you take it apart its pretty easy to figure. You can find parts allover the place. Theres even a ton of parts on ebay. If you have some specific questions hit me up. I have been racing and riding them for over 10 years
