07 GP1300R Problem

[eng811ine]

I took my ski to the shore for the first time yesterday, ran great. Got home, flushed it really good washed out the inside etc. Today I go to take it out in my normal riding spot and it runs good at WOT for about 30 seconds then the rpms drop and I lose about 10mph according to the dreamometer. Did the salt F&$* my ski up or is something else wrong here?

Welcome to the forum.

No, the salt water did not damage it.

Do any warning lights come on ?

I and others have seen very poor new boat assembly from the dealers. Cables coming loose. Like throttle and trim cables.

nope no warning lights. it just falls on its face after about a 30 second WOT run then the power won't come back until i let it idle for a minute or two then the same thing. also after this happens the holeshot is well....non existent.

Check the battery connections.

If they are Ok, it could be an exhaust leak I guess.

Damn this is hard over the internet.

Could there be something stuck in your prop? Does the ski sound different or vibrate when you gas it?
