- This video is about refurbishing an old jet ski. I mean, I think the title is pretty self-explanatory. Just watch the video and you'll figure out what it's about, if you haven't already figured out what it's about from me telling you what it's about. What's the point of these descriptions anyway? Does anyone read these?

Wow KobraHamson, what an informative video! Clearly you know everything there is to know about jet skis. I'm so glad we have professionals like you teaching us how to properly fix things.
saxo tu casa tu paya sol love hola vctor saxo xxx
Even the comments sound robotic.
@@JetSkiBuyFixPlaySellChannel I swear he typed this his self as if someone else typed it he gave himself a Round of applause 👏 🤣😂😆
How the hell do you not have more subs. This video was funny and well put together. Definitely deserves more recognition
🤘🏻 Spread the word!
Dude agreed this is awesome!! Legend Status
Agreed
Agreed
This restoration series is extremely underrated
Yeah Rotten Tomatoes should have rated it higher
Dude you’re going to get so many jetski honeys with that thang.
The Trim you gonna pull when you cruise this beauty along the river bank will be epic!
One can dream...
90s jetski restos are my new obsession. Working on a 97 GTX and life is good. Great content 👌 Gonna binge it all
Enjoy the slog through all the frivolous commentary!
I really like your videos! The dry humor mixed with informative facts and crafty editing is great. Thanks for the chuckles as I have been dreading starting on my own PWC resto.
Hey thanks! Glad you like them. Good luck on your restoration!
I really like the way you put this video together. Great scenes, very good commentary. Excellent!
Wonderful!
An awesome transformation, no matter how you pronounce it! The trailer is epic too! Nice work.
Thanks for the graphics inspiration!
not gonna lie - I'm stealing that vinyl design for my yamaha rebuild I'm doing. love this series so far!
Check out Steve Vigus, I stole that design from him.
I love your commentary lol, its hilarious
this pisses me off beyond belief that you got only 62K views and only have 2.34K subs. This is GOLD. I wish you luck that the world finds your content...
Hey thanks!
I love creators like you! You do such a good job editing and your work is immaculate! So happy I found this video! Just wish this whole project was done so I could binge watch them all!
This! I wish I had the time to upload every week... It's more of a once-a-month deal for the time being.
@@reed.k.h No worries! I will be patiently waiting for Full Bore to finish your cylinder heads so you can upload more! 😆 I just sent my 951 cylinder heads there a few weeks ago! I hope I can get them in time for June!
@@Wolf9326 Oh don't worry, there's plenty of work to do while I wait for the cylinders. The electrical system needs some serious attention. Get ready for a video that is mostly just closeups of wires.
@@reed.k.h Oh great news! Maybe I’ll learn something new haha wiring is not my specialty, excited to watch it!
Love the video! Also you should sand the plastics clean before heat gunning it or the dirt gets melted into the plastic.
Yeah I learned that the hard way...
I love youre style!!
Great video man I bought the same ski on marketplace for 300 lmao. Love the funny commentary on the video to
Thanks! It’s a fun ski for sure
Your content is hilarious! Keep up the good work!
Thanks, man!
omg, love your commentary! just picked one up the other day. got her in much better shape than yours, but at quite a bit more moola! looking forward to the rest of the parts! also, LOVE the decal design! I will definitely be doing something similar!
Don't worry, the commentary only gets worse in the following parts.
Rebuilding my jet ski as we speak
I did not expect to find a quality, recent video on a 26 year old SeaDoo. Thank you for your service hah.
Nice, where did you find it? It's for sure not this one.
bro buy more 2 stroke seadoos , i watched this series like 5 times already 😭
What’s like an amazing underrated PWC to buy from like the 90’s or early 2000’s? I want to buy one used and cheap to fix but don’t know anything about PWC just cars and boats lol
I have no idea... this one? This is all I know about jet skis.
Love your editing style, subscribed
Heck yeah, thanks!
3:00 good idea
You’ll be getting wet on that thing!
That's the hope
Haha. That's as impressive as it is funny. Looking forward to seeing part 2.
Aiming for Part 2 to be up before the end of this month!
Good content! Where did you source the all the clear tubing? I need the 7/16 oil lines!
I got all the tubing from McMaster-Carr
Russ T. Driveshaft 😂
What state you in I have a sea doo that needs top end rebuilt
Dude your effin hilarious
You're too kind
Dude I think I’m finaly gonna Tackle my. Sea Poo Xp ha. Ha. Your hilarious
O M G !!!!
HILARIOUS VIDEO ! LOVED the narration over the video and great editing... you make it all look SO EASY. I just picked up the same ski and I'm thinking mine is in much worse condition then yours was, even with the oil swimming pool in the bottom of your hull.
We'll see how mine goes over the next couple few months.
Damn, yours must be pretty rough if it's worse than this one was...
Do you have a link to the vinyl for the wrap?
I used craftvinyl.com
This video is underrated.
I put myself through the same stuff……for fun!! 😂 absolutely LOVE your sense of humor. Awesome video! Awesome ski! Thanks for sharing. 😎🙌
What a wonderful comment!
Stumbled onto this video. Now I want a cheap jet ski to fix up, and KobraHamson is funny AF!
I mean you gotta make a $400 cleaning chore entertaining somehow...
Cool video, wish you actually provided better info about how you refurbished the ski such as what you used to clean and how you went about removing parts from the ski. This is more for entertainment than informative video.
Agreed
Loved the jetski videos, where can I get parts, decals for my 95 seadoo spx, I can find parts anywhere.
Thanks
Bay Area Powersports and Watercraft Superstore are good sources, I also got a lot of parts on eBay. Just Google around a bit, there are a ton of sources.
Thank you
Your commentary for this video is hilarious! Awesome👌
Thanks man!
You didn't need to cut the lines. Just a flat screwdriver removes fancy hose clamps! Dude I am sending you a how to do video!!! Lol jk
Please I need all the help I can get. In every aspect of my life
I love this video. I moved to Florida a few years ago and I'm thinking about buying a jet ski to rebuild. Only problem is I don't know the first thing about them. 😂.
What bike is that in the background?
Well, I didn't let my lack of jet ski knowledge stop me, so I say go for it. That bike is my roommate's... it's currently in pieces in the basement.
Do you have a part list break down? Just finished part 1 so hopefully it’s in the next videos or if you could add it to the description. Thanks! Great video
I do, it's too long for the comments though. Send me a DM if you want a list.
Im starting on a 95 sp and 96 sp, found your ep 6 and started laughing so here i am watching all of the parts haha
Welcome to the land of disjointed commentary.
i LOVE the commentary
The infamous list of creg!
Not joking I forgot about the state Vermont until this video I feel bad now
We like to fly under the radar
what did you find to cut the grease? dawn isn't really working for me. I have the same giraffe pattern
I used Simple Green. WD-40 also acts as a surprisingly good solvent.
You think I can get the engine off n back on to clean for first timer. ?
Yep, just take a lot of good photos of where things go!
Wtf have I gotten myself into
Great video very funny and the decals are awesome
Hey thanks!
I have one of these that has been sitting in the back forty for twenty years.
I'm subscribed and following along.
How about a link for the "quick clamp pliers"?
They work, but they're not the highest quality.

awesome video man!
Great video man
Everything about this video is awesome 😂👌 New sub here
Hell yeah, thanks!
I’m 3 years late but how do you remove the drive shaft?
From what I remember, you have to remove the pump, and then the driveshaft just pulls out.
Alright i must say your commentary is on point great video man
Much appreciated!
@@reed.k.h if you run into any issues let me know ive rebuilt a few of these however it doesnt look like youll need it im over in MA if you ever ride it down here or in NH
Damn, this was surprisingly satisfying and entertaining.
That's what she said?
Great video
Not only was this informative af , this shit was hilarious lmfao.
Agreed
Lol this is how UA-cam videos should be made 😂😂😂😂
Well, at least 6 are made like this
nice video , where did you buy the adhesive vinyl from ?
craftvinyl.com
Those crappy grey fuel lines along with ethanol fuel were responsible for more seized SeaDoo engines than anything else.
I can't wait to watch more of your videos
Funny as Fuck!
That's pretty funny.
3:59 does the silicone do anything. I have that on my ski too
I think it’s there simply for sealing redundancy, it certainly wasn’t doing anything on mine and I haven’t had any issues with leaks since removing it.
Hola amigo quisiera que me puedas ayudar con la restauración de una moto no sé si me faltan algunas piezas pues es la primera vez que desarmo una
😅
Buena suerte!
Lol, I'm the same way about uncut zip ties.
It's a lifestyle
Gold bro , gold . I don’t a own a jetski yet . But this is epic . Keep doing you man
I loved every minute of this man!!
Why thank you
You are hilarious, great commentary and you make great content... thumbs up and subscribed👊
Much appreesh
Dannnng! You could have ended the video at those sweet 90’s style graphics and I would have been blown away, but you continued to blow me and built yourself a versatile, functional, inexpensive trailer and now I don’t even know what to think.
This is great
i have this same on I picked it up on the side of the road
Dang, must have been pretty heavy
I have a Jet Ski that I need to Fix can you help
Hell no.
Hey wehre I can buy the hydro truf mats ?
hydroturf.com
Dude this was great. Unexpected hilarity is much appreciated
Always happy to provide surprise entertainment
@reed.k.h i want to thank you for this in-depth rebuild. You have encouraged me to not try the same, as I am without a basement nor a winter season.
@@paulmryglod4802 Excellent, mission accomplished.
Wam Bam! Thank ye, KobraHam! That cart gave me tingles.
Mission accomplished
do you are funny ASF great video
This is a very serious video
My friend where is your location
I'm in Vermont
incredibly funny and nicely done.
Many thanks!
I’ll be your girl.... just kidding. Love the video bro
Haha I'll take what I can get I guess
What about the seat!?!
I have the same jet ski. No spark.
Bummer, I hope you find the spark soon.
I managed to pickup a 27yr old seado xp and a double ski trailer for $850! And it ran. Cleaned it up and did the same exact vinyl job you did expect with orange black and grey on a purple ski. Haha I probably watched the same vid. I might have to steal your garden cart idea!
Hell yeah! The garden cart was $100 at Harbor Freight. Way cheaper than the pre-made jet ski carts, and no shitty little caster wheels.
Pretty new to jet skiing.. I have a 2001 sea doo bombardier xp. I feel that it sits pretty low. The stern sits right with the water line and I weigh 165 lbs. I had a second person get on so the total weight was 320 lbs with a weight capacity of 565lbs and it capsized. Do you know why that would be? ( both the drain plugs were close and it was not filling up with water inside)
Considering I've only ridden a jet ski once in my life, I can't say that I'm an expert on jet skiing either.
this is AMAZING what a turn around. did you just buff the whole ski with cutting polish or rubbing compound i mean , it came out awsome!! i’m also shocked at how clean you got the engine bay. i do not understand how you pulled that off....
Thanks, I'm stoked how it turned out also! I only used rubbing compound on the yellow storage cover. I wiped down the rest of the ski with toilet bowl cleaner. The hydrochloric acid helps dissolve the stains. For the engine bay, it was just Simple Green and a lot of scrubbing... Like, a lot.
On those plastic
Cowls, just try sanding with progressively finer paper. by the time you get down to around 1000 Grit It can easily be polished.
Next jet ski I rebuild I'll definitely do that.
I worked for years as a Seadoo boat rental beach bum in Sauble Beach Ontario. This generation was simple and bullet proof. Wish they remained this way. The hull design feels dated now, but I’d buy one again.
I've never even ridden one from this generation, but I've heard that a lot of people swear by the X4 hull. Looking forward to getting it on the water!
I was wanting to see what pliers you used specifically, I had to destroy one of these lines on my truck to get the fuel filter off and the parts guy had a very hard time finding actual replacements. He kept saying to use regular hose clamps but I confirmed they are not enough for fuel injection pressures of gasoline. Thanks for the videos, cheers!
Having the right pliers makes a hell of a difference!
Bro ur so funny 😂
Bro thanks bro
Hey man out of curiosity, where did you learn to do all of this restoration? I would like to get into it and know a little bit about mechanics. Anyways great video, seriously Ill make sure to stay up with you 💯
I've spent my whole life taking things apart and putting them back together. No formal training, just a lot of tinkering.
Hey question could you do this to mine
Yeah sure, bring it on over.
I am currently in the same process with my 1997 seadoo gti 3 seater. Just got the new motor, gotta do the carb rebuilds, new lines, and finish cleaning up the hull inside and out. I will say though, yours is in like 50x rougher shape! good luck man! New subscriber here.
Hell yeah! It's a full winter project for sure. Good luck with your motor swap!
@@reed.k.h it forsure is! thank you. I thought about filming it for youtube. Havent decided yet.
I have the same ski and currently restoring it to it's former glory as well. Great ski, . Very fun to ride. I love the one liners and puns!! They are epic!!!
Oh hell yeah, good luck with the refurb!
😂 bad a$$ trailer bruh
Yeah she's pretty mean
Looks awesome bro! What do you think you have $ in the total project.
Thanks! Including the initial $400 for the jet ski, I spent a little over $2,100. That's not including the trailer or the cart.
This is what I’m about to work on as far as ski, and your commentary was hilarious!
Heck yeah! Don’t worry, the commentary only gets worse from here.
Have no idea why UA-cam recommended this, but I’m with it 🤙🏼 haha
Your guess is as good as mine. 🤷🏻♂️
110/10 video
This comment ain't so bad either
Love the video mate, funny and informative, good stuff
Love the comment mate, flattering, good stuff
Nice resto. These X4 hulls are a lot of fun, really nothing comparable you can buy new today. I used a similar cheapo trailer years ago for a stand up but I used PVC pipes for the bunks.
I knew next to nothing about jet skis before I bought this one, so it's a total coincidence that I happened to find one with an infamous hull design! PVC pipe is a good idea for the bunks... how did you support them?
@@reed.k.h I bolted them to the trailer cross bars with large fender washers. ( I had to drill an access hole in the side of the PVC to get to the bolt heads). I always strapped the ski down the frame itself. Never had any issues, towed it up to 4 hours one way with an '86 300zx. drive.google.com/file/d/1zzxylvJ_UkaCln6js_p7CzW-c21aIE5E/view?usp=sharing
@@VTCMart I like the simple design. My one concern with this trailer is that the ski sits pretty high off the ground, which may be an issue at the launch ramp. Guess I'll find out in a couple months...
