The last two times I put the ski is in the water it has had a deep, throaty, sound when I give it throttle. It didn't used to have that sound and I cannot reproduce it when it is out of the water and hooked up to the garden hose, while on the hose it sounds totally normal. There is possibly a...
I have a 2014 Kawasaki Ultra 310x SE and I have a jet ski lift on one of my dock pilings. The problem I am running into is that it is not a rotating lift and the flush ports for the ski are on the lower left rear of the ski. This makes it almost impossible to reach the flush ports while on top...
