Ultimate Reliability

Great Waverunner
Mar. 15, 2012





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.
