Bought a 04 RXP with supercharger blown?

[Derek45]

Hello, all, bought a 2nd Personal ski, to fix, the super charger, went south, I have looked in search, but does anyone have a link for what needs to be done to this Motor, Pulled , flushed ETC. only paid $1400 for it and low hours, 9 out of 10 condition, I rebuild 2 strokes and only delt with Honda 4 Strokes any advice would be great, thank you

For an 2004 RXP....with blown SC....Expect the following...

- Pull motor, split case, flush everything...
- Freshen motor with new bearings and rings...
- Replace all valves, 2004/05...prone to breakage...
- Replace flywheel bolts, 2004/05...prone to breakage...
- Replace oil jet/restrictor that is in block, 2003-05 it would starve valvetrain of oil when prolong WOT run were done...

Danny is on it 100%

Its a pita but its gotta be done..
Only thing I can add is the timing chain and possible timing gears.
But for sure change the chain with everthing Danny said.
Your looking at some big $$$$

Rip on..

Use oem head gasket. And bolts need to be replaced.

Might be cheaper or almost the same $$$$ to buy a remaned engine and drop it in..
I've seen over 20+ sbt 4 stroke engines installed in the last 2 years with 0 issues.

thanks everyone, will look into those parts Vs. Sbt motor, I always had good luck with SBT Motors so may go that rout.

Im thinking of just going with a sbt motor, would save me alot of time

Derek45, I spend a lot of time with my ski job friend, he says that only use the SBT swap as last resort ... meaning you will get 1 year warranty with it because it will last @ least 1 year. If you plan to ride wot, or race, or keep ski ... the cost will be be about 25% higher & labor PITA, but if @ all possible rebuild or low time swap is better. I know $$$ is always a main concern. But rather pay big once ... that a lot all the time. Good Luck

Yes was looking at time factor wish I found this deal at the beginning of winter, now that the season is comming, My parts and trailer biz is booming again, so not much free time, so If I do the rebuild my self may get it done by mid summer, but who knows, making $ is top priority, we will see, I do need a shop manual for all the specs, if anyone knows where there might be one? only seen a 05 rxp CD on Ebay, but would think they would be the same, when it comes to the 4 stroke Seadoos, I dont know Jack.

Hey, I would say if SBT hasn't been having issues lately it's probably a good option to throw one in. Save some time, so you can be riding all summer long instead of wrenching.
