Features

Class-leading Performance

  • POWERFUL & LIGHTWEIGHT: A potent 1,498cc inline 4-cylinder, 4-stroke engine delivers an unprecedented power to weight ratio. Broad torque delivers strong, easy to manage power and excellent off-the-line acceleration. A 3-blade stainless steel impeller and high-efficiency jet pump contribute to low cavitation and powerful acceleration.

Convenience

  • QUICK & EASY: The Jet Ski® SX-R™ personal watercraft comes equipped with many convenience and security features. Secure your personal items in the small-item storage compartment located beneath the handle pole. Bilge drain plugs in the hull can be removed quickly to facilitate easy after-use draining. Convenient low fuel and engine warning lights on the handle pole pad offer vehicle information at a glance, while a key-operated magnetic ignition switch helps deter theft.

Other Features

  • Easy to manage power, Outstanding acceleration, Large deck, Coupling - Direct drive from engine

Superb Handling

  • AGILE & RESPONSIVE: The V-shape hull design offers an ideal combination of light handling and agility for stand-up performance like never before. The hull carries the engine low and central for balanced weight distribution, resulting in exceptional cornering performance and outstanding handling both in straight lines and in turns.
