fx-1

Hi, just bought a 1995 fx-1. Have a 1991 and a 2000 SJ. What is the difference in riding compared to the SJ.

Ride it before you sell it at least! For nothing else other than to see how they ride. You will more than likely find that you want to sell the SN. For sure take it for a ride before you sell.

Re: fx-1

Like the others....

DO NOT SELL THAT FX!

I too,picked up an Fx-1 last season and sold it.

Also got a heavily modded 98 Rn, so something had to go. Only reason why I kept a SN around was for friends to ride, since they are somewhat easier to learn on.

Not a day goes by thinking why I let that thing go.
If at all possible, keep that Fx-1.

Re: fx-1

Sell the squarenose! I've got a 90 SJ, a 94 FX-1 and an 02 SJ and ALL my jetski money goes into modding the fx-1!

I don't understand - why do some guys spend thousands for a lightweight hull when you can just start with an fx-1?!?
