Re: RIVA Board

We are a Riva dealer and have been for some time now! We are in the process of becoming Riva's North-East Distributor/install shop.
We have been working with Dave concerning the new STX-15F 300 HP supercharger kits. This package is awesome!! I will keep everyone posted. I hope to expect kits by March-April???

Man is this true?!?!

it's been kicked around for a while.. riva allowed kawi to use theire V5 trim vortech supercharger from the FX HO on there race boats.. they are currently tailoring the kit to be a more manageable and user friendly one for the end user.

either come spring time there is gonna be some wicked stuff out....

thankfully i live 25 minutes from heaven and hope to have the first RivaRacing Stage II Stxr

We have told some of our dealers about our intention to develop a kit, but we're doing all the work ourselves here at RIVA with some assistance from the Factory Kawi Race team. In a nut shell, we're taking their one-off package and transforming it into a more affordable and reliable product for consumer use.

need a guinea pig for the project

Hey Jonny5, are you reading this? 300HP in a recreational package Riva? WHOA!!!! Oh my God!!! are you people insane or what, any special price for the first board member who buy one? maybe me? like I said before the days for the old gas hugs carburated, messy and smelly 2 strokes boats are almost over.

Keep dreamin Ray.
You've got about 5 more years...MINIMUM to put up with getting your arse handed to you by the two strokes. I would have thought you were used to it by now.

riva crew,,is this kit going to be pump gas safe??

Yeah but that's about a race ski for the Worlds.

What about a recreational, 240/250 hp variation?

We're exploring that option as well as others.

R/C;
I have the 12F,
can I have the S/C Kit installed on my 12F ?
Is this an option?

Our current plans are to produce a kit for the 15F only. Maybe if the demand is high enough we will consider a kit for the 12F, but a lot of units would need to be sold first. The numbers have to be there to support the cost of development.

Do we have an ETA on the SC kit for 15F? Do you guys know if Kawi plans on releasing their own SC 15F with factory warranty as a regular lineup ski?

I will be extremely interested in a 15F SC kit combination from you guys to go along with my current STX-R.

We plan to have it available this summer. Kawasaki has told us that they don't plan to release a production model watercraft with a supercharger. But, that could change without our knowing it.

Let Riva do the S/C stuff, and hopefully Kawasaki will update the top Deck look and feel with 2006 models !
