    I just bought the same 17FX, so this is super helpful. I love the transducer wire through the drain plug. Genius!!!

      watch some of my newer more current videos. I now have it mounted in the keel of the hull right in front of the engine using $4 "duct putty". it was way easier to mount, and it works a lot better.

      @@nolimitsaz Correct. No more water temp. Might be important if you are fishing, but not important for my use...I know April and october are going to be chilly....so I determined it doesn't actually matter HOW chilly it is...i still wear the same neoprene gear. (neoprene socks have become the best and easiest option)

    bravo...like to see the a vid pointed straight at the belly of the ski speaking on chop and you upgraded grates to offset such. i like how you guys went into comparisons.really every modd you guys did deserve a short vid.for having both you could do a few comparison type vids that would help guys out.thanks for focusing on confidence and convienace .

      Thank you. Recently we added a 50 lb bag of steel shot to the nose of each ski. Took 1mph off top end but handles so much better in chop. I have another video on it. If you search my channel.

    Great video! What year is that ride plate on your fx?

    • @factionfx
      @factionfx  2 роки тому

      It is the factory ride plate, custom cut by Jim's performance. about a $300 job.

    Hi ! I have a 15 FX HO and I was considering the riva intake grate but I was not sure because it allows for more debris into the pump …what is your feedback with this grate on your HO ? Any top speed loss ? Did you feel it more hooked up to the water ? Thanks buddy

    • @factionfx
      @factionfx  2 роки тому

      I have a ride plate and the riva grate and it still only goes 58mph... Same as factory. I have had these performance intake grates on my machines since 2012 and have not sucked any rocks through the pump.

    Looking good. What is that RAM part number on the left dash dry storage?

      RAP-B-366U. Remove the hex screw, then thread in your standard 1/4"-20 threaded bolt from the opposite side.

      we have since replaced our custom battery switches with "macboost" compact battery switches that sit right on top of the negative terminal
