i bought the 97' version 6 years ago for 2k with a trailer, so the green/white one, and i'm going to keep it for the rest of my life because it's more reliable than a rolls royce and it still looks like new, inside and out, and it's not too expensive on gas, and maintenance is like zero dollars because i can't see what i should do to it to keep it in good condition. I ride on a lake with fresh water only, so after the season it's just blow out the water inlet and then put a block of wood between the bonnit so the engine bay can dry up and no mold can built up, and then the next season it's good to go again. Maybe a few sparkplugs every 3-4 year and that's it!
Mick O Toole Sorry I didn’t reply to your little comment yesterday. I didn’t really notice it. Here’s one thing we can agree on though. We want nothing but the best, for our JSB’s 😁😁😁😁😁👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼💯💯💯
FYI, those 760s seem to start blowing up at around 200 + hrs. They loose the ring pin and toss piston rings. Always wrecks the head and needs a bore. Good practice to do a quick top end as prevention.
I think theres a good idea having the B2 and XP go head to head, how about instead of engine swaping, build both up as much as possible and see whos victorious.
hey josh i came across this vid.. killer content my dude,, my 760 waveblaster 2 with minoku 44 bogs down when i turn ive kicked the primer off so its a replacement.. could the primer be bad? i hope its not a control module
1200 may be faster, but running buoys you're looking at what, 45 min of endurance before you need to gas up? Lots of fun but you need to stay close to the beach. 1200 is the obvious choice for racing, but for someone who wants to ride for a few hrs at a time before heading back to the dock, 760 swapped wb1 is my perfect machine. Piped and ported even better.
I just bought one 2 days ago and road it 2day,love it used to have a 16vxr and I think the WB2 is more fun,need to tune a little the carbs as sometimes it bogs down after a 180,like no pwr then takes off. Overall road it non stop for 3hours lol till I hit reserve,raced 2 spark trixx and kill them on tje close course and off the line till 40,then the walk away,gps'd it mine did 44.7mph 👊🏽😎
Thumbgas the wb2 seems like an awesome platform to me I think it was just ahead of its time. If they were available these days I think they might sell pretty well
@@JetSkiBrothers i think the same,super fun to throw around and jump. I saw somethibg in the internet that yamaha would maybe bring a new version of it
Jacob Superjet Jet SKI haven’t built one myself but ridden one, they are so good with the triple. Should have been factory. Into engine swaps over here in New Zealand too, love the jsb channel keep it up ✌🏼
Is there any modifications you can add to the stock b2 engine for additional power? I am really on the fence about putting a 1200 in mine, but it seems like it weighs the ski down. I just want my b2 to do 50-55
I think you’re going to need some big time mods to get that kinda speed with 2 cylinder in the blaster, seems to be tough to get more top speed out of the waveblaster 2
Courtney Mitchell not sure if the wb3 was available in the states. I have never seen one. And I am kinda taking your word that the wb3 actually exists. 😂
I have a WB3 and a GP1300R. The blaster actually beats the GP out of the whole and for quite some distance before the GP catches up. Of all the waverunners I've ridden the WB3 is definitely my favorite, absolute hidden gem
So I had a question for you guys I have a gp760 fully modded with a riva pipe and tons of other stuff but I'm not getting enough gas and it bogs out even after tuning has a brand new jet pump as well and I was wondering will a high volume mikuni external fuel pump help get more fuel and if so do you guys have a video of how to install it because I'm really trying to enjoy my ski
@@JetSkiBrothers I hear you I took the carbs off took them to a buddy that builds race motors and freestyle skis his name is Paul he's pretty well known in the race world he did a pop off test and they where perfect on pop and the filters inside where clogged up needed some fresh ones I all ways have to ask people and I watch alot of your videos and always like to hear others opinions of what might be going on but keep up the great videos hopefully I could get this thing in the water on Tuesday its been really nasty weather hear in Georgia
Matthew Robert i’ve run into similar problems quite a few times with the filters inside the carbs keep getting clogged and I’ll clean them and they’ll keep getting clogged and the best solution I find is to run an in-line fuel filter before the carbs to keep all that junk out of your carbs and then replace that when it gets clogged and hopefully your fuel tank will eventually clean itself out. Good luck
@@JetSkiBrothers yeah I went and put some inline filters on I messed up and got the paper ones and I put 2 on so I kinda messed up I had the return filter going the wrong way and then found out your not spouse to put anything on the return and I guess paper filters are bad news he said but I took it out after putting that stuff on and didn't run right because how I set it up so imma take them off and get a new return line and a new filter and the right inline filters I might bypass the reserve switch are there any disadvantages of doing that I should know about
Drake Westerman it’s for visibility/safety. I guess the idea behind it may be that you become more visible to other people operating vessels on the water. Disclaimer: This is what I was taught 20 years ago during my safe boating course when I got my boat/pwc license when I was 10 years old hahaha
I absolutely disagree. The Blaster 2 is a great for wave jumping in the surf. It’s lightweight and has a large 155mm pump for great low end acceleration. It’s all about timing for wave jumping. The 97’ model has the adjustable trim, which might help the nose lift up a little more. The Blaster 2 is considered a “wet hull” where a large amount of surface area is contacting the water. This makes the hull handle great but limits the top end speed because of drag/resistance. The 760 motor gets loads down under hard turns with the 155mm pump. Yes, triple swap for sure!!!
@@kevinmulholland9566 Yes trim would def help, i had a 95 so with no trim its tougher to land at an angle. If you land with no angle it lands HARD! Best ski to jump is a wave blaster 1 all day.
Mick O Toole is that what they call jetskis in Ireland? Sticks? 🤔🤔🤔 I think it might be a better name for a surfboard because surfboards are actually made of wood; but that’s just my opinion.
@@calebforslund1348 no no no the STICKS are out side the jet ski BROTHERS back garden if you have not noticed for the past 2 years .....😂😂😂thay are micks STICKS 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁♥️🇺🇸🇮🇪🇺🇸♥️🇺🇸🇮🇪
Had the green model of the wb2, went the extreem throttle 1200 version. Loud and obnoxious and one hell of mid range pull. Miss that ski. th-cam.com/video/q78ZEsIGssc/w-d-xo.html
So much fun, I have one identical to that one. Good on corners and out of the shoot. Fun afternoon on the lake every time

Glad to see the Vintage skies kept alive! Keep producing these great videos!
Im buying one real soon love these skis
I bought that exact Wave Blaster 2 for $1,300 . I had as much fun last Summer as my buddies who paid $9,000 and $11,000 for theirs.
If you had just a much fun then you won by $7700-$9700 🎖👍
hell yeah!
Triple blaster 2 time! It's a train!
Lights camera action ...go jet ski brothers go😁🇺🇸🇮🇪🇺🇸♥️♥️👍👍👍👍👍

Jdh 104 thanks for the info 👍
How about the waverunners, always see them with bad cranks.
I think theres a good idea having the B2 and XP go head to head, how about instead of engine swaping, build both up as much as possible and see whos victorious.
Have a b2 1150 with a custom -6 set back.. wish I could get a hull that mint
Guys yall need to do more buoy battles, great to watch. Also that B2 sounds pretty healthy all around good find.
Zackary Crutchfield I wanna set up a buoy corse so we can do some more head to head action 😃
You definitely should, get some bouys anchor them suckers down and throw some water.
I have that ski, it's fun as hell
Both?
Howie it sure is
hey josh i came across this vid.. killer content my dude,, my 760 waveblaster 2 with minoku 44 bogs down when i turn ive kicked the primer off so its a replacement.. could the primer be bad? i hope its not a control module
Primer could be bad sure, but if it did it before you put a new primer on there then I think it’s probably something else.
I need that front cover and the little screw off cargo cover. ASAP
Man my dog could captain that thing and I wouldnt even be worried
Now that's a track. Maybe run lap times there once or twice.
1200 may be faster, but running buoys you're looking at what, 45 min of endurance before you need to gas up?

hahaha for some reason these videos are addicting
Next ski you guys should get is a Seadoo SP, SPI, SPX or pre 1997 XP. I would love to see an X4 hull seadoo compared to the Blaster II.
That's a great idea, I will look into it! I've never ridden the X4 hull. Is it pretty amazing?
+Jason Ski brothers I own a 1997 Seadoo SPX, and I will say, it is pretty damn good. It’s really stable and it carves well.
@@Duderocks5539 I don't love stable, but I like carves well. Lean to turn?
+Jason Ski brothers Yes.
@@jasonskibrothers2192 ive tipped the xp hull plenty of times. 180 into a wheelie and I've gone completely backwards too
Just sold my B2 yesterday. Never rode it never tried. I'll stick to stand ups👌.
Markus Rice it’s not for every one that is for sure
Dude you guys are awsome. Maybe you should put your seadoo 155 engine in the waveblaster2. Thanks love your videos stay safe.

Hey lads! The blaster 2 have factory 155mm pump and go so good with triple 2 strokes you will love it 👍🏼
Seems like the perfect marriage right? You build one?

wonder if the 1100 is worth while?
Does this have a brake
The black storage cap is worth crazy money FYI 😎.
I'll try not to lose it!
D.J. Walsh sucks when stupid little parts cost way too much
Cool vid love it dident no what to think of the wb2 try and find a wb3 800 pv motors go hard

How deep is the water where y’all ride at?
RAW T.V it ranges from 4-12 feet deep. It’s much deeper in other spots but we generally don’t venture to far out
Anyone looking for a Blastet 2 GP760 Factory pipe? I'm in Washington state.
Theres me STICKS again 😂😂😂😂hahahahahaaa
What did the WaveBlaster 2 cost you?
General Parrish Jacob will have to answer that one since he bought it but I wanna say it was just under 1000

jmedlock696 depends on what you want to use it for wb1 is probably a better surf ski wb2 is better for flat water carving
