    Love the color but too expensive and I bet a well tuned 787 will walk all over it.

        I don't know Matt. A turbo kit on that bad boy would be insane. I actually really considered doing this swap but ultimately decided on the 1100 instead. I don't think the price is that out of line for the amount of time and money invested to do that swap. I mean come on; mag pump, umi, carbon hood, sponsons? That's almost a couple g's right there.

        I think you guys are just spoiled by all the steals you run across in your area.

        Only thing I would change is the Ronald McDonald seat.

          He has a Jettrim seat on the way so that will be covered.

          I believe in and love 2-stroke Rotax power. Stuffing a perfectly good X4 hull with quiet boringness is not an improvement in my opinion. Somebody will buy it though I just hope they enjoy tinkering and have really small hands lol.

          It is cool to see something new though I totally agree with that.

            Go look up a couple vids of the supercharged version. They sound freaking awesome.

            I'm with you Matt; I love seeing new things. It it weren't for guys who love to experiment we'd miss out on a lot of cool builds. I'm a huge fan of the 787's though and agree there is little to nit pick about them.

              Cool build, would be nice to see some numbers on this. I have a SPARK I have been making mods to ( Non-Turbo ) and they are not speed demons on the top end. You can get some good pull on the 91 tunes but they top out and thats that. I can say that with handling mods my SPARK is more comfortable than the ole XP and is staying planted in the chop.

              Sorry to seller if I am hijacking, the Spark moto is a solid set up.

                Well like Matt said; that thing in stock form would make zero sense. Less power than the stock 787 and I'm guessing a bit more weight? The only way I'd do that swap is if a turbo accompanied it. Then we're talking a whole nother story.

                  its less weight and weighs 380. throw a turbo on it and now your talking! Freedom racing turbo spark ran 74mph and was a rocket out of the hole. Basically you need another 3500 to make it really move!
