2008 Yamaha WaveRunner® FX HO

handeling and top speed

This machine turns on a dime, goes right where i point it at a blazing top speed of 65mph. With the right water conditions of course. Pure adrenilan rush it will throw you off if you dont respect its power. best looking ski on the lake by far. nano-technology ,lighter power to weight ratio than anyt...hing else out there, cant say enough about my fx ho but pure excitement that makes my heart pound whenever i ride it. wouldnt own anything else but a yamaha. im sold.

Best of the best

Purchased this as a family ski. Previously have ridden Tiger Shark and other Yamaha products, and Kawasaki stand up models. While I know its not a new model. It is a 2008 and mine had low hours on it. 80 hours to be specific. Over all the handling is great, even with 2 passengers. It rides the ocean... very well I can only imagine the fun on a lake. Great balance and very agile in turns and quick response. 0 to 60 times are 6 seconds and the ski is planed out in 3 seconds and at 60 mph in 6 with 2 people on it. I love the fuel mileage. I believe it to be better than what factory says. Rode 75 miles last weekend on my break in ride and consumed a 1/4 tank. I highly recommend looking at this ski if your in the market for a used ride. I will be hoping to locate a second one in the spring next year for the kids to ride on too. Read Full Review

Ultimate Reliability

Had this Ski for a few years now and has never let me down. Obviously bought 2nd hand and is great bang for your buck ski. Used for Tow In surfing heaps and also can jump waves on it. Have reached 60MPH on a very flat day on a river. Great all round ski. Read Full Review

Great Waverunner

to brad Johnsons review:

when you were riding the wave runner you had the LCD screen on Km/hr not mph. They come stock with km/hr as the default setting and you have to change it to mph.

However this wave runner does go fast and has good gas milage. i have got the LCD screen to say 69mph, but i... know i want going that fast cause i was airborne. the ski probable goes close to 60mph GPS tested. My only complaint would be that the colors/artwork on the ski be actual paint and not stickers. i also find no use for a cup holder. i mean do you actually think a drink will stay in there when doing sharp turns. the cup holder should be another waterproof compartment. other than that its a great ski and would recommend it to anyone.
