we have built several Sea Doo RXP's that run over 90 mph on GPS, we are currently working on a Sea Doo RXP with a single Garrett Turbo that will run over 90mph, around 91-94 on GPS, I love this part of the business modifing 4 stroke jetskis is great fun and rewarding.

Thats amazing you can insure it for hardly nothing.! 150 + in a 40 cat try 1800 a month.Some fu*k up country we live in. My skater would be over 350 mph at the same scale speed and with no chance of falling of the seat at wot.

15 to 85+ in less than 6 seconds. That's pretty wicked.

F that I have been throw off my POS Kawasaki's at 55 and it hurt like hell or a stand up at 40. My buddy has a RXP with about 5g's in it and it runs around 85 and is like being blasted in the face with a fire hose. I rode it once and lost a $100 pair of glasses.

40mph on a stand-up is probably scarier than 89.4 on that thing.

The 1300R Yamaha is a 2 stroke. What an amazing feat! Having problems with the grates cracking and blowing out at speed. Most are "super-manning" at that speed, so you have no chance when something happens.
