I gotta admit, i rode my buddy's GP1200R today, and my fourstroke, while smooth, feels sorta gay compared to a two stroke!
I grew up riding motorcycles. One of the first baby pictures of me is my mom feeding me on an IZH 56. I've never ridden a thumper in my life, and now I own a 4-stroke jetski, can you believe it? LOLSnackem said:I gotta have the B-R-A-A-A-A-P, and four strokes just don't deliver.
Good for you Momar.momarski said:I am heading rapidly to my second hs
the part is made by bosch, I will match it up at the auto mechanic, is that funny or what
does brap mean it makes alot of noise and does not go nowhere
my boat kicks a.. and sounds just fine
mike clippenstein from canada bought another hs today that makes 4 hes got
the move is on, the boats are now going as fast as big boats can get em here

About a year ago I looked into this for a standup with some other people/companies. The rotaries that will physically fit in a standup hull have less torque in the midrange than a limited 2-stroke does, weight is about the same engine-engine (though the rotary would require something on the output shaft for alignment), and are much more expensive.Knightofwyte said:Didn't say it would be easy, and they don't have as much torque at the higher rpms but they do make more torque than a piston engine could ever hope to in the lower rpm range! And I figured that if they pass emissions tests in a car then they should work fine in a ski!
As for the off-set driveshaft, thats not correct on the newer rotaries. The eccentric rotates around a lobed central shaft which becomes a crankshaft of sorts...
