I don't have a lot of Spark experience, but I think they have a sport mode where you push a button a few times... it makes the throttle more crisp. One of the ones I rode was a 2019 and it had different modes. I found that it was a sit upright or lean out to turn. They ride like they are on rails if you lean out a bit, from what I remember. They are fun little skis, but I wouldn't go out of my way to buy one. The sound it makes is only a little better than an electric. "it would be nice if it wasn't such a turd" 🤣 Cool to see one of these on your channel after all these years.
Yeah I think a spark has potential but in stock from its just not very exciting. I have always imagined a 1100 Kawasaki in one of these. But there has never been the right deal on one
@@JetSkiBrothers Oooo, it would be interesting with an 1100, haha. After posting my last comment I realized the one I tried was a Spark Trixx ... so a little more exciting. That being said, it seems silly that they would make a non Trixx version... I mean.... isn't that what they are. It's like making an airplane with optional wings.
I had a go on a friend's trixx one time, the most enjoyable thing was just the lightness. Taking it out on waves it just flew out of the water, great jumps. And of course the "water wheelies".
I have a riva tuned one through haul exhaust upgraded pump with reducer for more psi some other goodies 300 hours on body 1 hour on engine, 72mph top speed with trailer its s 2019 trix 5500
Yeah chuck an 1100 in it. Too big though maybe? Dunno how much room there is. Anyway chuck something 2 stroke in a spark. Would be fast! Or maybe that 1500 kawasaki motor, did you guys ever end up using that for anything? But again, might be too big. Suspect that spark motor is pretty tiny and the hull is made to suit. Ideal hull for a swap though, easy to split in half.
That Sea-Doo sparks looks like it is a 2014 and the 2014 models have a bad driveshaft issue 2015 late 2015 does not have that issue but a lot of the early 2015’s in 2014’s have the driveshaft stripping issue we work on them for a living in Alabama and then things are very fun and tell you have to change the spark plugs and you have to pull the whole entire top careful just to get to the spark plugs
I'm in for more spark content. I'm guessing that one was a 60 as the 90 should do 50 mph. I've been toying with replacing my aging 787 gsx with a spark one of these days.
I'd rather rebuild a hx with a 787 or your gsx. I have rode a built 787 that gpsed at 64 in a 96xp amd 68 in a 97 xp. 2 stroke is cheaper to rebuild the skis are fiberglass not plastic. They don't creak lol. 50mph is with no fuel and very smooth conditions and a light weight rider. I am 6.1 200 pounds amd I couldn't reach but 46 on the 90hp version. For 10k I could spend my money amd restore a better ski
@@AtimatikArmy yep! X4 or the 97 and up. I actually rode a 951 limited yesterday for the first time and I liked it. Handles better and is faster then a spark lol. 130hp not 90 lol
@@jeffbryner5355 Agree totally. I have an old 2 stroke, thought about replacing it, but you get a pile of computers and emissions and things that are just hard to work on yourself now-a-days.
@piquat1 yep! I just totally rebuilt a 2 stroke superjet. Replaced everything including the engine internals. it was still cheaper then buying a new crappy 4 stroke ski. The best part is I don't need a computer to work on it. There is no sensors to be faulty and throw codes etc..
It's on a long "selfie" stick. The insta software removes the stick in processing so it looks like there's nothing there. Look closely and you'll see the guy's hand out like he's holding a stick.@@andybabiii1
I'm looking to buy my first jet ski. I don't have much money but there's a 1974 sea jet for$2300 in my area. The guy said it's pretty nice. Is it a good ski for my first one?
Swap in a clapped out 650 into your blaster and stretch it about a foot. I guess it's the b1 for the ipad generation. Kinda sucks for them. If it looked cool and wasn't plastic or a seadoo and it had decent power then I would take it over a b2 blaster.
@Jacobskibros bahahaha!! That was perfect!!!!🤣 you need to do lap times and a drag with it vs. a stock b1, then do it with a triple b1! I will use your videos as since then share it with everyone I can lol
360 cam looks like a video game and it gave Jason a tiny head LOL
Seadoo Sparks are awesome lake skis, fun to throw around for sure!

Spark with a 951 lol and the spark engine in an xp would be fun
That Jet Jon needs some trim tabs (down trim), lol!
Great acceleration, smooth turning, doesn’t feel rocky or choppy yet smooth and fast?!? *IS THIS MY DREAM SKI?!?* 👼😇😊

Do it

Need the trix version can ride mile lone wheelies and do backflips
Put a turbo 1630 in a spark!
Build a bananas turbo spark trixx would be sick!!!
Maybe take it back two stroke and do a 951 xp engine swap
Try $600 AUD to get a tune upgrade, both Seadoo and Worx here in Australia. That’s why we are stuck to the original firmware, just too expensive.
Nice
how are u guys recordin that? looks pretty nice!
insta 360

no chance dont buy a older ski like that for your first it will just be a headache
Gp1300r motor in it
How does it compare to a waveblaster as far as speed and handling
LOL, doesn't even compare!

The way the camera records almost looks like computer generated.
it’s a insta360 camera
Where's the V8,
Actually a pretty good ski if you don't want to learn to ride a jetski.
I learned on one it’s not that bad😊
