I wish I had a dollar for every Sea-Doo crank and/or starter I have replaced in that style of water buggy! Nice looking quad though!

tell me more its a stock crank wiith  a wiesco rod . and and the one that is blown up in the r right now is a wieco. I heard bad about the hot rod crank. but nothing about wiesco . guess its google time.
