I appreciate that you show yourself getting back onto the pwc from the water. I am a much larger person and that is something that I have to consider.
PWC content coupled with your reviewing style is great!! Keep ‘em coming gents!
Taking this out in smooth to light chop water conditions is like riding a cruiser motorcycle on the highway. Pure comfort. Set the cruise and enjoy the view. I used to ride crotch rockets when I was young, and never felt comfortable with my feet in front of my body on a bike. It's my favorite way to ride this. Not to mention no traffic or objects to get in my way. I'm loving it! It will still throw you off if you do something stupid. I haven't, but I can feel that it will. I appreciate the info on the rooster tail. I thought it was a pee hole, but there is another stream that comes out of the left, port, side at foot level, too. That must be the real water pump discharge hole.
Thank you for presentation! You are very good! Keep going!
Love the mix of things you review! Keep up the great work guys! Best channel on youtube for sure!
Great review, love the content. Thanks for sharing!

Nice enhancements. I have a pair of the 2021 FX Cruiser HOs. That new rear deck is super sweet, as are the tie down points on the handlebars! Would love to have those. Hard to overstate how cool and useful the speed control is, especially out on the ocean. These things are sea worthy for sure. My wife and I drove ours from Oceanside to San Onofre and back last weekend - about 20 miles along the coast each way. We've also had them out off San Diego when the ground swell was 8 feet + and it was absolutely rad. "Confident" is 100% the right word. Our next adventure is Long Beach to Catalina.
Your reviews are all great. Look forward to a switch video from you guys.
I put a pre order on switch coming next month. Only $35k out door with most options and big engine. Gonna sell it if I don’t like it.
Very nice,thank you.
Good morning Truck King!!! Happy Canada day!!!🇨🇦
Oh man! I luv the video…reminds me of my childhood…do you think you can fish off the back?
take the vx - little smaller (10'' less 131 vs 141 ) and lighter and very steady and more fun especially if you want to do some fun stuff in the water .
Hi! I love your review, congrats! Doubt: Do you know about where to buy the sound system? I bought in Brazil the same model, but its not bring with sound system. I'm looking to the others countries to find it.
Happy Canada Day Steve Elmer My Independence Day Is Monday 🇺🇸.
How do you find the cruiser style seat?
Comfy, enough leg room? Or do you find yourself sitting further back on top of the back support? I’m 6’, think a cruiser seat would be fine but not sure
seems much better quality then the sea doo gtx
The rear bench option for the rear platform is brilliant
love waverunner content
Agreed!
I wish there were better comparison between fx svho and the seadoo 300 rxt
The best top speed so far for me is 62mph. That's with two people riding(370lbs of people weight with the heavier person, 250lbs me, on the back,) 1/4 of a quart of oil short from full, and the trim in the middle. The water wasn't glass either.
If the oil is completely full then it knocks off about 1-2 mph. If I am riding by myself, then I also lose another 1 mph.
Dumb gallons used counter reset every time the ski and screen are turned off. Yes, there is a fuel gauge but that kinda stinks for most boats and PWCs. The middle console is not waterproof during a rollover, in my case anyway.
I concur. I can't get mine past 60, but that is plenty fast for me. I'm usually cruising between 25 and 30, anyway. I didn't want crazy speed, or else I would have gone with a supercharger. If I keep out of the throttle, these things will cruise all day on one tank of fuel. It sounds great without the supercharger. IMO.
Loving the dirty mo!
Uff que maquina más linda 💪💪🤙
I've got to start a Go Fund Me page for one of these..lol
Loved the video..where do I find out more information..ie..how to turn off accessory ...etc. however thank you!
Thanks. That info should be in your owner's manual. You can download a digital copy here: waverunners.yamaha-owners-manuals.com/
Maybe I'm bias. I find the seadoo GTX series to be a bit better. I think the large storage is better, more accessible. Also, the cup holders are on the side on the GTX, not right infront of you. One last thing is the latter. Yeah the FX has a longer latter, but the GTX latter self folds after usage.
I prefer the seadoo models too. They feel a lot more “sporty” than the Yamaha’s. I always thought you sit in a seadoo, and on top of a Yamaha. That front storage bin is tiny compared to the GTX’s and even smaller compared to GTI’s . BRPs audio is awesome too. Hard pass for that price tag. It’s a nice PWC, just about 5k over priced.
Love your videos!! Do you know if the GP1800R HO 2023 glove box comes with the phone charging port and light?
It doesnt. The fx and vx ho does.
When will you review the all new 2022 kawi's 310
What newer PWC is "Flickable" but also decent for cruising bigger waters like the Gulf of Mexico (Not that big of waves... but choppy at times). I'm in my mid 40's... I like to ride aggressively... but after jumping and cutting a while, my body reminds me of my age lol. At that point, I like to cruise.
You want a Vx HO
How does this do in heavy chop / ocean ?
I got to borrow one of these for a few hours. It had the same hight output motor but without all the luxury bits that weigh it down. I was able to hit 57mph on choppy water no problem and it was really fun to throw around. One thing is though this machine is THIRSTY. It took 5 gallons in just a couple hours. It was wide open most of the time so thats why.
try a Kawi 250 Ultra, I went through 25 gallons of 91 oct in a weekend with only a few hours usage. terrible and about the same top speed and way more maintinance.
2.5gph is actually quite good for a PWC
The only thing not there is the price point, just like the jet blaster. The spark broke out big for being a fun little ride while at the time having a low price point. This really offers nothing at its high price point. And yes I get the spark is expensive now but when it first broke out to capture a fan base it was cheap.
how effective is trim on these as it's terrible and little to no impact on my Sea Doo (2021 GTI SE)
Whats the difference between the FX HO and the Cruiser HO,is it just the seat?
Thinking of ordering a 2024 fx Ho or a gtx 230 but I might slip down to a gtr 230 or vx ho. The price for the fx is just too steep. 23k after tax and no trailer. I think if ur paying that price for a ski a trailer should be included.
It’s cool and all but to pay 25g’s for this is absolutely insane, especially when you’re in Canada and can only use it for 3 months.
Same in NZ. They are like 29k now plus trailer.... Insane. The supers are 34k nzd!!! For 2023...
The cup holders are for relaxing floating around with an ice cold bev
and one more thing - the stream that comes from the back is for you to know that there is water coming out from your jet and nothing is blocking the intake (seaweed and such ) the spray on the side of the jet ski as shown in 6:17 is the cooling water comin out from the engine . you have to check these two streams all the time to know that water flows into the jetski engine and that there is cooling to the engine - if you don't see them - there is some problem so shut off the engine and try to check what is blocking the intake underneath the jetski .
The rear water spray is Yamaha's "Visisbility Spout"
@@stevegiron8825 it shows as I said that water flows through the impeller and the jet unit . no water? you know there something blocking the jet . it's not so people will see you are riding the jetski - thats nonsense
@@robertbarel896 Partially incorrect. The back stream was put there by Yamaha and designated as the "Yamaha Visibility Spout" They put that feature there for safety. While you can deduce other information from it, it's there as a safety feature only.
What are the differences between an FX Cruiser HO and an FX HO? Thank you!!!
only the seat ; ]
Ya-ma-haw
Fx or vx, can't decide now lol, for a first timer here.
Defs fx. Don't waste time in vx realm you'll regret it. Fx ho cant go wrong.
When a person weighs in at 275lbs +, do the 90 and 130hp PWC's struggle to get up to speed, or should you aim at something 170 and up?
not really
@@TruckKing I'm 280 and wasn't sure if a 130hp was sufficient, still feeling out the market to see what's even avail around me
@@concernedcitizen2187 A 130 would be totally fine. If you are going with a Seadoo the GTI 170 was a great machine for my family. I’m a big guy to and with me and two kids she’d hit max speed of 55mph…. That’s as fast as that machine would go as I believe it was governed to 55mph. You’ll be fine with a 130 but I would suggest the 160-180 range for max fun! the GTI 170 I had would take me, a spotter and still pull a 220lbs skier out of the water no problem! I sold it and got a ‘22 Kawi 310 though now.
if you weigh 275 and you plan to have someone on the back that weighs 130 lb + and tow you want a 200+HP PWC, no question, I would not go lower than 170 HP, that is bare minimum.
😍😍😍😍
Is the speed control based on GPS? And is speed control actual speed or engine RPMs? Kawasaki 310 is RPM. Sea Doo is GPS speed.
Rpm
2022 use GPS speed and distance displays
Kawasaki is not RPM. It's based off Speedo run off the paddlewheel by the water.
Would be nice if the bin was insulated.
the cruise control has been stupid / and continues to be... if you are riding in a chop, your hand for a split second loses grip on the handle, then you squeeze it again except now the cruise control has been disabled and when you squeeze the throttle the thing flies from underneath you.. very dangerous.. there has to be a way to make it work differently like on a car
The Riva ride plate and ribbon delete are my only mods but handling is way better and 180’s are much better!
maybe for offshore riding from Miami to Bimini this would be sweet. Pretty much everywhere else I'd take a GPR1800R SVHO with Stage 1+ from Riva. Love Yammy's products though and to a lesser extent Sea Doo.
What’s your GPS top speed on the 1800? I’m only at 62 on FX
U sure that PWC is big enough?
I have a 2013 FX Cruiser HO, my regular play ground is the Chesapeake Bay, I'm not sure what to think about water that flat, I know I'd appreciate it especially when performing tow sports, but I think I'd get bored. Here on any given day best case is a 1' chop, average is 2', and 3'+ is more frequent than 1', we do have times when the water is flat but this phenomenon is measured in hours, often followed by a violent storm. The new features are nice, it may be time to upgrade though I'll say, the 2013 has held up beautifully. Specifically, the changes I like, in order are the electronic transmission control, electronic speed control, the rec deck, the move of the flush port, the removable able tote / storage. The touchscreen? I'll reserve judgement until I have one, for now, my view is "ehh". FYI I can hit 68mph on the 2013 FX on 1' seas, in my experience completely calm water is not necessary to hit the top speed on these things, no question you hit the top speed for your body weight. For reference; I weigh a tad more than half what you do. I am big fan of the FX Cruiser, it's an adventurer or an adult's ride, what you want if you're gonna be out in rough water on a regular basis, handles tow sports nearly as well as dedicated tow PWC's. I also have a 2022 GTR 230 which I love but it's more for playing, not my choice to take across the bay on a rough (2'-3'+) day, though I have done that. Most people come over and think they like the GTR better, leave preferring the FX Cruiser. In my opinion, if you have room for 2 PWC's on your pier a sport model and a luxury model are good compliments. Come down and do a Chesapeake edition; ride on the bay and your opinion of what is fun on a PWC will change forever. FYI: if top speed is most currently the most important trait of a PWC to you; give riding rough water a try, there are days I'm out that I cannot maintain 30 mph, but it's a lot of fun, completely changes the definition of a good time on a PWC. Riding rough water brings justifiable fear and adrenaline into the equation, if you've never experienced that, give it a try.
Great comments...and comparisons. And appreciate that you are speaking with authority owning both JetSki's
How do you find the cruiser style seat?
Comfy, enough leg room? Or do you find yourself sitting further back on top of the back support? I’m 6’, think a cruiser seat would be fine but not sure.
Ok, i know I'm a Kawasaki guy, but what a joke this thing was for top speed run! Not only is it slow, but it's nearly flying out of the water with almost no chop on the water at those low speeds. Haha, the Ultra just cuts thru any water you point it at.
Buy 1 2022 Yamaha or buy 10 1996 Seadoo XPs for same price and they can run 60 xD
How does the touchscreen do with wet hands?
PERFECT
@@radameslopez8200 Thanks
1:15 Not new but very nice.
I recently purchased a 2022 VX with extended warranty $17,000 purchase, great machine, everything they said it would be, at 6.5 hours the check engine light came on, while flushing it out in my driveway, I took it to a local authorized dealer and was charged $150 because the "code" didn't indicate a manufacture defect, after speaking with Yamaha Corp and they did an excellent song and dance routine, I am now concerned that Yamaha does not stand by their product. I should have purchased the Ski-Doo.
What did the dealer say the defect code was?
@@craigc9975 They said it was scu code #159, Ride motor IBR code, after speaking with Yamaha they indicated it was kind of a bogus code, the tech wrote down "loose battery cable", I went back to Yamaha and asked how a $17,000 Waverunner with 6.5 hrs had a "loose battery" they said it was a problem in prep before I picked up the Ski and I should not have been charged since this was a dealer prep problem not a user problem, I still have not received a refund. I'm not as concerned about the $150 as I am the extremely poor customer service from the service center and the song and dance from Yamaha Corp. I have no confidence Yamaha will stand behind their product or their authorized dealers, I really regret buying the extended warranty. The upside, the ski is great until I have a problem.
Had the same problem with my brand new ‘19 VX - It died out in the middle of the lake. The machine as totally dead. I figured it was a fuse or battery. I gave the battery cable a wiggle (not easy to do in the middle of a lake - lol) and sure enough, super loose. I tightened it enough by hand to get me back in. Called the dealer to convey my displeasure.
Big question is how does the stereo sound?
They are pretty damn good
All factory stereos in the industry are pretty damn good these days! The 200 watt system on the new Kawis is fantastic but I’ve had the Seadoos and have heard the Yamaha and they’re all pretty decent!
60mph on that thing would feel slow. I tested the svho on the ocean at full throttle & man it was nice!!
very good but driver is not too heavy? hahahaha
Very Seadoo VS yamaha ? 🚀🚀🚀
That glovebox is not in anyway waterproof I rolled it and everything got soaked
Sea Doo 🏆🏆🏆
I'm starting to think this...uhm
That waverunner should run 65mph all day and 67-68 if you are small
OK truck king you can buy me a wave runner if you really want cause I can't afford it myself
HAHA wish i could find it out the door for 15 k here in the states 23-25k out the door
Wow 23-25? Where are you?
Pls leanguage
Water boat price
that's a boat 🚢
Yamaha makes the best PWCs no doubt, but after tax, title, freight, and trailer, there’s no way you walk out of the dealer paying under $20k (usd) and that’s a bit scary to me
The resale value makes total ownership costs lower, mine is worth nearly new price and it's 4 years old.
If you include the best possible adm of 600, plus their y.e.s warranty your 20k estimate is extremely close. 23-25k out the door is now typical in the states with some dealers selling 30% over asking and people will pay it without hesitation
@@craigaustin4779 That only begun after 2020 with Covid prices and Supply and demand !! It pays to shop around 😉
@@jeffro7475 It shows no sign of slowing, there are a ton bought and sold on spec. It always pays to shop around, but you have to include total cost when looking at a new machine, and that includes maintenance and used value, Yamaha does well in both. All of the new machines are very good, reliable and expensive if you can get one.
I paid 12.3k with tax no trailer out door in 2019 on FX and thought that was crazy. It’s still running great but is on touch screen #3. 2.5 more years on warranty 😁
color is bad, not many new extra's they added, other than the docking feature, rear deck, and the ladder. i wonder how many times a owner will forget to raise the ladder, and shove it back up an in ?. touch screen: i see a high dollar item getting soaked from water..electronics and water do not mix !. no pop up tie downs ?, yeah..i'll keep my '15 fx cruiser ho, and the best part ?, i paid 15k OTD for mine ( usd ).
NIGHTMARE!!!!! I bought a 2022 fx cruiser HO. Screen won't turn on sometimes. One time at the lake the entire screen freaked out and thought I was out of the geo fence. Kept screaming at me. Couldn't turn it off or change the settings as somehow the code changed. Yamaha could care less. Offered no support. My boat has been at the dealers for over a month. Frustrated does not even cover it. I hope you have better luck me.
Any update on this one?? These things really putting me off the 2022 2023 models ...
@@mcquoidd6917 With a TON of complaining I got a new screen. Like I said before Yamaha could care less. The new one seems to work althought I won't really know until it gets hot again here in Arizona. When the machine was out in the sun and it got really hot, that is when the screen wouldn't work/freak out. When it cooled off at night it would start working again. I got the new screen when it was starting to get a little cooler so time will tell.
I like your reviews: "Joe Everyman checks out a PWC like a real person would do". But I need you to leave the mothership spiel "never met a PWC I didn't like" and draw the line in the sand. Tell your viewer which PWC you would buy for yourself. You have the luxury of testing all the brands and all the models within the brand, I don't. So a nod to one particular model from one particular maker from you will hold alot of sway with me.
Hi!
I sent you an email for a business opportunity .. I hope you can check it soon.
Thanks!
There is no way that is worth 20k CAD. Way over priced. There is zero justification to price this more than a base Toyota Corolla.
A base Corolla has less hp and doesn't float.
Toyota won’t gloat
Float
go with an SVHO and dont even consider the HO.
Exactly
Dude, your just sad!
It’s an ugly ski. Sorry!
