stock 04 Yamaha 1200 3 seater (XLT?). My 3, 6, 8 year olds think it's fast enough as is.

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

You don't have Jetskis, you have Seadoos. Big difference.

The old Seadoos are as reliable as claw hammers and very reliable. They also hold their value well and have excellent parts availability both thru the dealers and aftermarket.

Only use the Seadoo injection oil- otherwise you're asking for problems. It's a completely different oil.

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

How badly do those kits affect your reliability? And fuel consumption?

And performance:)?

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

I don't have any but...

For the love of God, can you someone explain to me why most users are EXTREMELY DANGEROUS and cannot stop swerving right in front of me...

Whenever there is one around I expect the worst in regards to dangerous maneuvers and 1 out of 2 it is exactly what happens...

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

Best machine SEA DOO ever made IMO. :)

The RXP is faster, takes the waves better, doesn't require oil like the 2 strokes(what a pain) but it can't jump a wave half as well. They are both fun, just a different kind of fun.

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

I know exactly what you mean. Whenever I see one running anywhere's near where I'm headed I keep a close watch in case they decide to cut in front.
I don't understand why they ride like they do. I know the rules, I know it's unsafe to play chicken like they do. I ride ours as responsibly as I drive our boat. I do play around, but I do it in places where it's safe. And I always look around to see where the other boats are before attempting any crazy maneuvers.

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

They definitely are not a two person craft epsecially in rougher water. I've had 5 different Sea Doos with this hull, and there isn't another ski that jumps as well unless you can find someone who knows how to ride one of the old stand-ups. I busted the fiber glass on the last 97 SPX I had landing it on the tail. It about ended up in the bottom of the lake.

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

Got a couple of these under the boat house. Sorry for the darkness, picture was taked at 5:30 in the morning.

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

I agree that the 96 XP was the best machine they even built. I have had damn near every model they have built and had the best time on my old Yellow 96.


Now days you only see these morons out there. No good riders anymore. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

The Supercharged one really fly's!! Wife is play in this pic.

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

While all you personal watercraft guys are on here just want to warn you to hold out on buying the new fourstroke yamaha waverunners.We have 15 of them in the rental fleet ,6 of them have had to have new motors put in them already with less that 200 hours at $7000 a pop if they were out of warranty.I guess the new motor is a motor cycle engine converted to marine use and doesn't seem to like the wot, keeps busting the timing chain tensioner.My good buddy owns the rental fleet, he wishes he still had all his 2004 two strokes back that he sold off because he was saving so much in gas and oil.The two strokes you can get reman motors for $650 and their good for a couple thousand hours if you run the amsoil two stroke.

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

I have some friends who were thinking about buying a new yamaha 4 stroke. Thanks for heads up.

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

Their awesome machines the motor almost looks like it came out of a small foreign car it is so complicated,too many sensors and stuff wich have been the problems on a few of the other ones,one sensor you buy you have to buy the whole throotle body with it for 1700.They ride quite a bit wetter that the old ones too,nose is almost under water till you get on plane-sucks through no wake zones.The old yamaha two strokes are bullet proof but i would rather have a Sea-Doo hull like the old XP.

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

We have two:

2002 Honda Aquatrax F12X Turbo, great machine. Plenty of power and HONDA RELIABILITY!!!

1997 Seadoo GTX, 300Hrs and still running strong

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

I have Sea Doo RXP's Riva stage two and Yamahas GP1300r.
The speed of the jet ski's is still no comparason to the power and speed of a powerboat :D

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

1 Kawasaki.....96 1100
1 Seadoo........96XP
1 Seadoo........03XP

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

had a 96 xp good machine SEADOO won alot of race's with that hull, but you should really try a blaster for wave jumping ride's just like a motorcycle on water and air :D:

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

this was bad in its day.

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

Dude, that ski is STILL bad as hell. :cool: :cool: :drink:

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

I agree, SeaDoo is the best by far ! I've had 8 over the years. Some for racing and some for pleasure. My favorite is the 96 HX model. It corners on rails ! Very easy to work on.

Re: Jet Skies Who Has Them
 

Buddy of mine has an HX, was turning it 7800rpm's before it roasted.:eek:
