What are the fastest Jet Skis ever made?
Personal water crafts or PWCs are not something new on the market. However, only a small number of people know that they were not very popular when they were introduced to the public. Many people thought that they are not safe and difficult to handle. This perception has changed once the Jet Ski was revealed. This particular type/brand of PWC has become an instant hit. As a matter of fact, the majority of people today call all PWCs jet skis. Jet skis are constantly changing because the manufacturers of these crafts are adopting the newest technological breakthroughs in their new models. Almost all ski jet parts are upgraded and updated and modern jet skis have more features than ever. Of course, the engines are becoming more powerful too. It is very difficult to select one particular jet ski that can be considered to be the fastest because in addition to stock models there are many modded WC machines too. That’s why we have created a list of several jet skis that belong to the group of the fastest PWCs.
Fastest Jet Ski – The Line Up
1. Seadoo GTI 130
Seadoo is a well-known brand in the world of jet skiing. This model can be used by up to three people. This is an excellent choice for new users who are looking for fast and reliable jet ski. It comes with a sophisticated intelligent reverse and brake system. Thanks to the new technology used in it, drivers can reverse and throttle without losing stability.
2. Seadoo GTX 215
Those looking for luxury and speed should definitely check this model. Seadoo GTX 215 comes with tons of features like iTC, iBR and different speed options. What is interesting is the fact that you can check the fuel level and consumption on a special display. It can be used by up to three persons.
3. Kawasaki 800 SX-R
Kawasaki is a brand known for fast motorcycles, but apparently they make some very fast jet skis too. Although, handling a powerful jet ski like this might be a challenge for new users, experienced users can enjoy the power of the 781 cc two-stroke engine. It might be a good idea to try it once you gain enough experience.
4. Yamaha Waverunner FZ R
Yamaha has several jet skis in their offer and this model is among the fastest. The Yamaha Waverunner FZ R is built for advanced users. In order to handle this jet ski you will need appropriate skill, experience and knowledge as well as good fitness level in case you want to perform stand up driving. The relatively low price is not a surprise because this model doesn’t come with too many features. What is important is that it can quickly reach the maximum speed of 65 mph. The engine produces about 211 horsepower. It is very mobile too.
5. Yamaha FX Cruiser SHO
This is another model from Yamaha which is slightly faster than the model we’ve mentioned before. This amazing jet ski comes with an 1812 cc engine which makes it one of the most powerful jet skis today. Despite this fact, Yamaha FX Cruiser SHO is relatively inexpensive and doesn’t require much fuel.
6. Kawasaki 300 LX Ultra Jet Ski
There is no doubt that ninja culture was the basic inspiration for the creation of the exterior of this Kawasaki jet ski. If we look under the hood we will notice another thing that this ski jet has in common with ninjas – strength and power. The Kawasaki 300 LX Ultra Ski has an engine that develops 300 horsepower. In addition, it comes with almost every available feature in modern luxury jet skis. The team behind this model has used a special Eaton Twin Vortices Supercharger capable of super fast acceleration.
7. HSR Benelli Series-R Race Edition
There are many people who consider Kawasaki’s 300 LX model to be the fastest jet ski, but the truth is that this title goes to HSR Benelli Series-R Race Edition (at least when it comes to stock models). It is really amazing how HSR has managed to make the perfect combination of excellent maneuverability, luxury and performance. It comes with a 2.2260 cc, V6 engine and it can produce 342 horsepower. It can be used by up to three people.
As we have mentioned before, there are many modded jet skis that can beat these models, so it is actually quite difficult to determine which ski jet is the fastest. One thing is for sure, riding a jet ski like any of the aforementioned models is very exciting!
