Thank you that means alot, we do work really hard to make these high standard, just upgraded to a new 6k camera so should be even sharper. Thank you for watching, commenting, supporting ✌ p.s. great colour spark 😉
@@classicjetskis Thanks i also just got a 95 XP just like yours off marketplace for so cheap for the condition it's in that's how i found your channel. I'm going to replace all the fuel lines and maybe some other things too
Thanks man, glad you appreciate and enjoy the videos... I will keep them coming and keep trying to grow the channel! Thanks for watching and supporting 💪🙌
I'm soo happy your are doing the series on the 95 xp. I recently bought a very nice one for 800 us dollars it's a blast to ride. I'm very proud to be keeping the classics alive!!!
That's awesome man! I'm pumped to hear you found a clean 95 XP and are enjoying it. Keeping the classics alive is definitely something i'm proud of and love others are doing it also. Thanks for watching and supporting... more videos are coming in the series ✌
It sure is up there for one of my fav skis, just so much fun and never gets old to ride... also super reliable and easy to work on. Thanks for watching 💪
I know right, we ski there all the time for this very reason alone... its the closest sea to us (35-40mins) the water isn't as clear as some places but the tide works well and the fact its all soft sand. Thank you for watching ✌😎
Heck yeah, that sounds like a blast! Dude, getting footage of your 2000 Seadoo Sportster would be epic!... Get that camera rolling mate... thanks for watching 👍😎
I know right, sadly alot of the new gen folk dont appreciate greatness... the world is a pretty woke/ environmental place now so when a 2 stroke starts up you get the, 'why is it smoky, whats that noise' bla bla bla... Most people at the ramp think 4 stroke and their superchargers are the best thing ever, and the 90s didn't happen!... You do get people that appreciate the old stuff but by and large I'm sadly in the minority. If I saw a 2 stroke and heard it I would run the length of the beach to see what it was. In the US people have more 2 strokes but here not so much... good job I'm Keeping The Classics Alive! 😎
"XPS" aka "Seadoo Lube" is really good stuff. It's like Frank's Red Hot Sauce. I still have a can from 1993 when it was called "Seadoo Lube". It doesn't make a big mess. Good show. I like how you get into details about detailing. Love from Nova Scotia.
Thanks man, I do love XPS and its my main go to for the engine bay, along side GT85 for water displacement. I do think its over priced, between £25-30 in the UK a can... I have an old 90s can with XPS still in it. Thats epic you have some from 1993, send me a pic on my Insta dude, would love to see it. Thanks for watching and supporting the channel 😎🙌
Ooooo Seadoo Lube! I have one off those cans on my garage its violet orange and black. Always follow the vhs tape safety procedures! Spray metallic parts with seadoo lube and turn down your fuel line to the off position hahahahaha i still remember that
Thank you it means so much that all you guys watch the video, support the channel and enjoy the videos...I have since now nearly hit 3.5k... Thanks for watching dude 👌
Great video, glad to see your channel growing! Your attentional to detail is amazing. That XP is one of the cleanest I have ever seen. I can't wait to get my 1995 GTX out.
Thanks man that means alot! I do try to keep this XP looking fresh, just can't resist riding it all the time 😍 Hope you get out on your GTX soon! Thanks for supporting
I'm in Toronto and love your work, in Florida everybody had a jet ski or knew someone at some point, theyre more plentiful than scooters in london lol you gotta go and see it for yourself. its a classics world on to itself of jetskis
I know right the US has so many more than here in the UK, in a way though I love it as when I then find a clean classic here in the UK, it feels rarer which is cool. I would love to go out to the US and do a tour meeting a load of my followers and ride some of their machines. Thanks for watching and supporting 💪😎
So an old friend of mine just gave me his old 1996 Sea-Doo GSX. The original owner was a mutual friend who has since passed. So this craft has sentimental value to me. I haven’t ridden it for several years and he stopped riding it 5 years ago. Is I’d like to baby this thing and get it going again in as correct a way as possible. It will play in Minnesota lakes. I know I need to get an AGM battery and replace the old gas but what all should I do to help ensure it’s fully operational? New gas or oil lines? New spark plugs? Should I check the compression? Evidently it was running when they last used it and I believe it was kept inside a garage. Thanks for the informative video!
Hi dude, thanks for the comment and sounds like a lovely 96 GSX machine you have. Sad story about the original owner passing but this is normally the case with how clean classics pass hands... The good news is clearly its gone to you who cares about its future life... Ok so as you have alluded to, you need to do a full recommission, this will include new battery (Gel cell) change all the old grey lines if they haven't already, replace the fuel (E5 only), check the condition of the oil. If it hasn't been converted to premix then check the oil pump as these can go bad. Yes check compression but would likely be ok if it was running ok last time... you want around 140-150psi. Check the crank seal, engine mounts are solid and the obvious one but the carb may need cleaning/rebuilding. The reality with these old machines is the best way to keep them going is to ride them regularly to keep things moving, when they sit, that's when you need to do all the checks. Hope this helps and hope you get out on it and enjoy it. Thank you for watching and supporting the channel. 🙏
I’m shocked you don’t have the the wireless led lights for the trailer board tbh. You should do a beginners guide to owning and maintaining a jetski😎 amazes me how many people don’t have a clue 😂
I have tried them but with the Range Rover electrical system it dosent link very well... The ones I have tried were wireless with magnets but couldn't get them to constantly connect, so was as much of a pain as doing the wire. I think the next thing will be a in built waterproof connection, so I can leave the wire inside the trailer box section and just leave a small length of wire on the end of the wired lightboard and just have to do the connect at the back each time. I will add the video idea to the list... Was unsure if people would just skip this first section and go straight to the ride... But you're right, most people get the simple things wrong... Thanks for watching ✌
I know right its 1000% on the to find list, here in the UK there are very little clean 787 XP's... I would love a 1995.5 but likely aim for either a 1996 XP or 1999 SPX 787. Thanks for watching dude 👌
When are we gonna see the rest of the SP series? I have been waiting on that one for awhile. 2 strokes are life they are all I will buy. I have an 89 sp and a 96 gsx love the smell of burning oil
I know I know dude, the SP has been a saga, the EP2 is coming but had so many other videos that need to get back round to it. I will for sure, thank you for your patience on this. Good line up with the SP and GSX dude, hope you're out having a blast this summer. Thanks for watching and supporting the channel 🙌😎
For sure, it would be interesting as I use a range of products and different products for different skis. 3M is my go to for actually cutting and polishing and then ceramic products for routine shine/hydrophobic properties. I will try make a video at some stage dude. Thank you for watching and supporting 🙏
I have this ski the hull is perfect…. I put a skat trak stainless steel low end tuned prop in it and it helped a lot…. I do wish it had just like 10 percent more torque without spending a ton of money…. Thinking a used factory pipe I’m not sure if that ends up giving other components issues…. It already has a mind of its own when it wants to work or not lol any 717 x4 mods someone can recommend ?
Hey man, the X4 hull is a total classic! You can't go wrong with that-it's known for being super agile and responsive. That skat trak prop sounds like a solid upgrade. As for a bit more torque, thats why the 787s came in... but the X4 717 is already such a fun ride. I'm personally an OEM guy so mods aren't my thing, I ride them stock and work out how to get the most out of them... but for sure there is alot more performance to be had if you start modding...Thanks for watching, mate! 👌
@@classicjetskis thx for the information…. When it runs wide open power band it’s been great…. Sadly it was bogging and I read in some forum it may be the rectifier unfortunately hasn’t worked since replacing that…. It was previously giving me sometimes 30 percent power then all the sudden 100 percent power…. Is there any mods you did to the oem engine outside of prop and intake…. Maybe jet ring ? That would increase it’s very low end pop on the 717 xp ?
Love these videos mate keep them coming also I’ve picked up a 1994 seadoo xp for 1100 the other week love this thing and only 40 hours on her she is very clean too wanted to know were can I get a original cover for this or one like yours thank u
Thank you for the kind words and watching the videos 👌 Love the 1994 green colourway, so retro! 1100 is a good price for a clean low hour, so congrats. So the cover I assume you're referring to is the green and purple one as featured in EP1 in this XP series, if so this was actually the incorrect year cover for this 1995 XP... that green and purple cover is for the gen 1 XP 1991/1992. I have since bought a brand new NOS OEM 1995 cover that correctly matches my 1995. It took ages to find, a guy in the USA helped find it for me, I did pay £500 for it and still haven't taken it out the box as so rare as its new. When its warm/dry I don't run a cover, for me the covers are more about the completion of the OEM look. Best place to look is on the FB X4 groups as from time to time people sell OEM covers. Aftermarket wise I think the covers are easier to find if you just google XP X4 gen 2 cover. Hope this helps dude 😊
Also let me know if u would be willing to sell that green and purple cover that was in that video much appreciated and yes it’s a great colour but still the yellow colour is just as retro
@@fayefletcher1896I would be willing to sell it yes as have a new cover for it. Where are you based, if you follow me on Instagram or Facebook you can send me a DM to discuss 🙏
I know what you mean by being the minority running a 2 stroke ski. Had my 96 SPX out last weekend and I didn't see another 2 stroke ski on the water of the 50 plus other skis that were out there.
Hey buddy! That’s so true-2-stroke skis definitely seem to be a bit of a rare breed these days. Being part of the minority makes the classic rides even more special.... there’s nothing like turning heads with a classic 2-stroke while everyone else is on newer models. Keep rocking that SPX, mate! Thanks for watching ✌
These videos are better than TV production quality Great Work

I love the 1995 720 xp its one of my favourites
It sure is up there for one of my fav skis, just so much fun and never gets old to ride... also super reliable and easy to work on. Thanks for watching 💪
That’s awesome you can just drive right up to the beach and send the ski out, not many beaches are like that in the US
I know right, we ski there all the time for this very reason alone... its the closest sea to us (35-40mins) the water isn't as clear as some places but the tide works well and the fact its all soft sand. Thank you for watching ✌😎
Heck yeah I want to do something like this with my 2000 Seadoo Sportster. Get footage of the classic 2 strokes!
Heck yeah, that sounds like a blast! Dude, getting footage of your 2000 Seadoo Sportster would be epic!... Get that camera rolling mate... thanks for watching 👍😎
Maaate the XP sounds nice and crisp when you fang the throttle 👌🏻👍 I bet you everyone on the beach had their eyes on your skis.
I know right, sadly alot of the new gen folk dont appreciate greatness... the world is a pretty woke/ environmental place now so when a 2 stroke starts up you get the, 'why is it smoky, whats that noise' bla bla bla...

Good vid man😎👍, would love to see polaris ski on your chanel some day, maby slx or something like that. Have a nice summer🏖🌞
Thank you, I don't know a ton about the Polaris but if a clean one came up, never say never. Thank you for watching 😎✌
I agree, I've owned a 94 sl650 and currently own a 95 slt750 and love both of them
@@gatorracing72well hopefully at some stage I can bring a Polaris to the channel for you dude 😊
Another top notch video!
Thanks Steve, I'm trying to level up each video, just got a new 5k camera, loving the look of the 50 fps. Thanks for watching as always 🙌
The sunglasses look great! I want a pair lol
Glad you like them, I've wanted a pair of 80s/90s looking shades and these are exactly it. Thank you for watching dude ✌😎
