Standard Features
THE POWERPLANT
, This 1812cc engine, which is purpose-built for the marine environment, is the largest displacement engine ever installed in a personal watercraft. It is also the only engine in the high-performance, four-stroke category optimized to run on the least expensive Regular Unleaded fuel.
Four electronically controlled fuel injectors, throttle position sensor (TPS) and intake air pressure and air temperature sensors supply the optimum air/fuel mixture. The results are a smooth, high power output with low fuel consumption and low exhaust emissions.
Provides tremendous engine rigidity that's lighter and stiffer than two piece designs.
Electronic switch stops engine and oil pumps immediately if watercraft becomes overturned, protecting motor from unwanted water ingestion.
With water repellent air filter and flame arrestors
Uses two engine oil pumps to deliver lubricated oil to each moving part with water-jacketed sump and oil backflow protection.
Achieves high power while keeping noise and exhaust heat under control.
Water flow through the engine is controlled by a thermostat sensor.
For exact ignition advance control at all throttle positions and RPMs.
Sacrificial zinc anodes protect the engine from harmful galvanic corrosion. Stainless steel fasteners (nuts, bolts, hardware) provide a long service life.
For more efficient combustion.
THE JET PROPULSION SYSTEM
with three-blade stainless steel impeller is designed to maximize water flow for high performance. The FX HO pump configuration provides excellent hook-up and smooth acceleration.
Maintains the perfect RPM to provide the optimal speed for effectively maneuvering when the watercraft is in reverse.
Mechanically operated, this system offers instant change in the attitude of the watercraft while underway allowing for tighter turns or quicker acceleration on plane, as the rider prefers. Q.S.T.S. offers 24 degrees of total trim range.
For high durability, the liner maintains accurate clearance tolerances between the impeller and the housing.
The dynamic shape of these items directs water flow into the pump for better thrust, performance and hook up.
A combination of zinc and copper alloys, developed by Yamaha marine engineers, that offers excellent corrosion protection.
HULL AND DECK - The NanoXcel
Yamaha’s new NanoXcel ultra-lightweight, high strength material reduces the weight of the hull, deck and liner by 25% and provides performance gains in acceleration, top speed and performance-driven handling. Additionally, the NanoXcel material offers a shinier, gem-like finish which reduces surface tension on the water, providing a more nimble, responsive ride.
Provides excellent maneuverability, handling and comfort.
Provides added straight-line comfort and an improved two-up and three-up riding experience.
Additional Features
the industry’s first system that allows the driver to set and hold a particular speed while maintaining a comfortable riding position with the throttle. Once the speed is set, the driver can increase or decrease the speed through the simple push of a button. When the throttle is disengaged the system shuts off.
makes cruising through no-wake zones a breeze. Once engaged, the no-wake mode moves the engine’s RPMs to an optimal speed, approximately 5 mph, for efficiently navigating through a no-wake zone. Once through, the driver simply applies throttle and the no-wake mode is released.
Allows the rider to adjust the steering column angle from 55 degrees to 35 degrees.
Provides the operator a quick read on speed, RPM, fuel level, low fuel warning, low oil pressure warning, battery voltage, overheat warning, hour meter, check engine light with self-diagnostic function and the industry's only audible warning system.
With the touch of a button on Yamaha’s innovative remote controlled transmitter, you can activate and deactivate the FX HO's digital security system and all-new Low RPM Mode from up to 30 feet away
The personal watercraft industry's first fuel saving feature, low RPM can reduce fuel consumption by up to 26% based on average annual usage.
This security system that can be activated with the touch of a button ensures that no one starts the FX HO without your permission.
Provides a stable area for reboarding.
The industry's first self-draining beverage holders.
Automotive style and convenience.
Provides added comfort while reducing hand fatigue.
A waterspout from the rear of the craft that improves the craft’s conspicuity.
