I just winterized my standups today, finally. Starting them up and smelling them run makes me want to ride again! Too bad its only going to be in the 40's tomorow.

yeah i know. had to do this over a month ago because bow hunting started and couldnt get back up to the skis. lakes are freezing over at night now and it should be anyday now when the ice stays on the lake.

Winterizing HAS to be depressing, don't really have to do that here, wetsuit gets you all the way through the winter and into spring.
Alas, I feel your pain as my X-2 is down and stripped for paint and a 750. Getting her ready for Daytone in Janurary!

I bought an '08 RXP-X toward the end of the season to replace my totaled '07 RXP that I wrecked mid season. That X boat has the brand new smell to it and it fills the garage. Every time I smell that new boat smell during these cold months it gives me spring fever.

I'm gettig ready for Lake Anna,after 4years of not riding and 13 years of not racing. I'm not sure of going with the proven 650 or building a750

Winterized my two also, but getting things in order, on paper to start stripping the stand-up for a winter restoration. Going to try my hand at putting in new footholds, matting and side padding to re-vitalize my '92 Kawasaki 750sx. Time and patience will be the main factors for me, I don't have an abundance of either. Plenty of glue remover standing by just in case. C'mon April..........here in Georgia, the water temp is tolerable around that time frame.

Yea, I winterized mine too.
Rode the *&%# out of it in the Pacific Ocean jumping waves.
Then I took it home, washed it, flushed it and wiped it down.
It's ready for it's next winterization next weekend...and EVERY weekend !!
God Bless San Diego weather !!!
