Painted the jet ski

[Anti_Rice_Guy]

As most of you know, one of my other passions besides cars is PWCs. Well, this spring I had the top deck of my 08 RXTX painted to switch things up a bit, cover up some faded paint where stickers used to be, and patch a few things. Instead of sticking with metallic silver, I had Lacey Powersports (http://www.laceypowersports.net/) go back with a 3 stage metallic orange (silver base). I'm still trying to see what it looks like in all light, since I only had it out Memorial Day Weekend so far - it really brightens up a lot!

The seat is also the factory seat (just repainted), along with the rubrails, grab handle, etc. Handlebars were powdercoated, and the turf in the footwells is the only new item.

And yes, I made it a little faster this year too, 265 hp was not enough :twisted:

Moreso tying up than riding it. If I mess up the paint while riding it, I have bigger problems to deal with than just a scratch :wink:

Exhibition race on the same buoy course as the local race boats.

Coincidentally, COPO 9737 is the rare sports car conversion option back in '69.
