Running flat out accross Lake Lopez. While its not a very exciting video, if your "jones'n" for a ride on your wetbike mid-winter, this might be your temporary fix. This bike runs 38 mph on GPS. April 2009

  • I used to have one back in 81. I put a grate on the intake and it seems to glue it down with a little extra on top. Maybe 1 or 2mph.  Wasn't there a fellow around 87 or 88 that broke into the high 70's on one?

  • @vwertigo Intake grates, or scoops as they are called are common upgrades. Doubtfull anyone has gotten one to 70mph. 50 tops.

  • You're riding an ATARI.  That's awesome. What are the whipeouts like? I bet they hurt.

  • @GhettoStank Not any worse then crashing from a wakeboard or waterski.

  • Hi...I have a 1979 stock 50 hp wetbike that tops out at 32 mph on my radar gun. How did you get yours to reach 38 mph? Thanks and great video.

  • Richie, this is a 60hp bike with speed plug insert in jet pump, and velocity stacks.

    That'll get it to 38mhp

see all

  • @vwertigo this was, of course, before the sheriff patrol regulated someone jumping off the primary or secondary wake of a boat. you see I got mine when I was in the 5th grade and I'm now 39. the first time my legs left the hull I was doing a superman and didn't know it, but I rinsed and repeated many times!

  • @tjm52071 no seriously. there was a guy in watercraft magazine that ran some crazy speed on the 800cc when it came out. I do remember the thing having elongated rear ski etcetera. this was a drag machine with a built motor. I know the "scoop" well. I bought mine from the local suzuki shop and it was a red double finned scoop. i was in the shop buying my second front ski from shattering it jumping cabin cruiser wakes as they plowed on Lake Hamilton in Hot Springs, Arkansas.

  • Totally........ i should'a had a cape ! LOL

  • Here I come to save the day!
