so today i took the 96 770 out for the first time and it start up fine well last year i removed all the fuel out of the carbs so it took about 2 mins to start it. so i got it started and it was running good and cool but then smoke was comeing out under the seat and out the front cover, so i thought my jetski was on fire and i almost $*it myself lol. i took the seat off and it was just smoke from the motor so i thought it was the oil i put in from last year coming out the carbs. but the seat back on and the motor was bogging down really bad and again smoke was coming out everywhere so i just took the seat off and went to dock. my partney and i was looking around to see if the exhoust was loose and it was not so then i went back out and the motors sounded so loud like the exhoust fell off and the motors bogging down cuz the smoke was choking the motor. back at dock my partner found the problem it was the tube for the muffler fell out so all the smoke will just stay in the hull rather then out the hull. so fixed the problem and loved riding my wife's 770. i kinda like my wife's 770 better then my 900. thanks for reading A&R Motors
In 2002 I was riding my 96 Montego 640 thru a shallow area and at the time didn't realize how shallow it was but it picked up enough sand to clog the water filter and cause the engine to run in overheat mode. I stopped by a friends boat and asked them if they could tow me back to the dock and they did. Once back to the dock someone asked "who makes that jet ski?" "Never seen that type before" and I said Arctic Cat. I told them it overheated on me and he said "probably why they are not widely known then" and I said "well at least it was free, it was given to me!" I just backflushed the motor with a water hose and it ran fine, just got the motor real hot!
Funniest Tigershark story I can tell is when about 2 seasons ago we were all out jet skiing down the C & D canal when six of us went to pass a big cabin cruiser which was throwing out a 5 foot wake we went to jump it and all of us made it but one poor Tiger Shark which jumped the wake only to stab into the next one and get swamped real hard, we almost wrecked out laughing at the guy so hard. Needless to say his day was over. Tiger Sharks don't have enough bow lift and will spear a wake instead going over it

outlaw i am going to disagree with you on that one. i have a 900 and i can jump any wave. wish i had a water proof cam. aaron my bro in law did the same thing but only thing was that he went fyling and the jetski did not lol.
No I mean he made the first one no prob, but the second one for whatever reason he was outta sorts and harpooned it at a bad angle I guess. Maybe he lost control or drunk then, but he harpooned it thru the second wake right in the middle. I wish I had a video of it. lol
