I bought an SXR 1500 and was told all these things I needed to do to it to get it "up to speed"... turns out I liked grippier sponsons and thats about it. Maybe a new tray mat down the line, and a stiffer pole spring, but like... I'm "putzing" around at 35 to 40... I'm not racing, I'm not buoy chasing... I'm just looking for a more connected ride than my 300 (sit down seadoo!)
I hate zero degree bars and prefer 4's also! Everyone, it seems, they all like zero degres, but that is just not natural! I think its because someone recommended them to them and now they allgot used to that atrocious un natural grip position!
