Standard features:
Yamaha High Pressure Pump
* The FX HO's pump design could be the most efficient pump configuration ever, increasing stream velocity and thrust while decreasing cavitation and prop spin. Like the High Output MR-1 engine, the new pump design also contributes to the FX HOs excellent power-to-weight ratio.
* Reverse: Allows the watercraft to be backed up off a trailer or out of tight spots where you cannot turn around easily.
* Quick Shift Trim System (Q.S.T.S.): 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.
* Stainless Steel Impeller Housing Liner: For high durability, the liner maintains accurate clearance tolerances between the impeller and the housing.
* High Flow Intake Duct and Grate: The dynamic shape of these items directs water flow into the pump for better thrust, performance and hook up.
* Cooling Water Intake Filter: Filters out harmful debris that could cause blockage of important cooling water passages.
* Pumps are Manufactured with YDC30: A combination of zinc and copper alloys, developed by Yamaha marine engineers, that offers excellent corrosion protection.
The Powerplant
* The FX HO is powered by a high output Yamaha MR-1 engine. This 1052cc four cylinder, four-stroke Yamaha marine engine delivers more power in a lighter package than any other full-size, four-stroke normally-aspirated watercraft in the industry.
* Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI): Four individually adjustable throttle bodies, 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.
* Specially Designed, One-piece Cylinder and Crankcase Assembly: Provides tremendous engine rigidity that's lighter and stiffer than two-piece designs.
* Slant Detection Switch: Electronic switch stops engine and oil pumps immediately if watercraft becomes overturned, protecting motor from unwanted water ingestion.
* Dry Sump Lubrication: Uses two engine oil pumps to deliver lubricating oil to each moving part with water-jacketed sump and oil backflow protection.
* Yamaha Engine Management System (Y.E.M.S.): An integrated, computerized management system that controls and adjusts such functions as ignition timing, fuel injection mapping, engine diagnostics and OTS. The OTS function of Y.E.M.S. activates when the operator releases the throttle lever and attempts to steer the watercraft. This assists the operator in turning while the watercraft is decelerating.
* Independent Water-jacketed Exhaust Manifolds with Collector: Achieves high power while keeping noise and exhaust heat under control.
* Thermostatic and Pressure Controlled Cooling System: Water flow through the engine is controlled by a thermostat and pressure system and is maintained by a pressure control valve.
* Corrosion Protection System: Sacrificial zinc anodes protect the engine from harmful galvanic corrosion. Stainless steel fasteners (nuts, bolts, hardware) provide a long service life.
* Electronically Controlled, Variable Ignition Timing: For exact ignition advance control at all throttle positions and RPMs.
The NanoXcel Hull and Deck:
* The FX HO features the worlds first hulls and decks manufactured through the use of cutting edge nanotechnology. Yamahas 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 handling. Additionally, the NanoXcel material offers a shinier, gem-like finish which reduces surface tension on the water, providing a more nimble, responsive ride.
* Progressive, Stepper Draft V-Hull with Integrated Bow Spray Guard: Provides excellent maneuverability, handling and comfort.
* Sponson Design: Provides added straight-line comfort and an improved two-up and three-up riding experience.
Additional Features:
* Five-step Adjustable Tilt Steering System: Allows the rider to adjust the steering column angle from 55 degrees to 35 degrees.
* Multi-function Electronic Information Center: 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.
* Industry's First Remote Controlled Transmitter: With the touch of a button on Yamahas 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.
(not available on models sold in NY or CA)
* Low RPM Mode: Also with the touch of a button on the remote transmitter, the top speed of the FX HO is reduced by nearly 30 percent.
(not available on models sold in NY or CA)
* Yamaha Security System: This security system that can be activated with the touch of a button ensures that no one starts the FX HO without your permission.
(not available on models sold in NY or CA)
* 27 Gallons of Total Storage: Includes a large 19.8-gallon cooler, rear storage tub and glove box.
* Comfortable Two-piece Seat: Ergonomically-designed and contoured for added support. The extra-long seat is easily removed for quick access to the engine and the cooler.
* Pneumatically-assisted Storage Compartment: Large 19.8-gallon front compartment, remote release lever and pneumatic lid support.
* Glove Box with Self-draining Beverage Holders: The industry's first self-draining beverage holders.
* Extra Large Boarding Platform with Retractable Reboarding Step: Provides a stable area for reboarding.
* Dual Mirrors: Automotive style and convenience.
* Finger Throttle Lever: Provides added comfort while reducing hand fatigue.
* Yamaha's Trademarked Visibility Spout®: A waterspout from the rear of the craft that improves the watercrafts conspicuously.
Nanoxcel Hull & Deck
New to FX HO this year, a NanoXcel hull and deck makes this performer more durable, while reducing weight by 25% for greater agility and acceleration.
Low RPM / Security Mode
With the press of a button, a remote transmitter allows you to disable the ignition when you're away from your WaveRunner, or to govern the RPMs and top speed while riding.
Adjustable Trim
Yamaha's unique grip-mounted trim system allows for quick adjustments while riding, so you can dial in the handling to suit your riding style.
