TR-1 High Output 1049cc 3-cylinder engine
The new VX is powered by the High Output version of Yamaha’s innovative 3-cylinder engine, the 1049cc TR-1. This compact and lightweight unit packs a real punch and offers lively acceleration and great top-end power, plus economy and reliability. The lightweight of this engine also helps deliver superior handling, agility and balance.
HyperFlow jet pump puts the pressure on
Exhilarating handling and exciting performance are hallmarks of the VX Series and outstanding bite and acceleration are made possible by a combination of the high-flow intake, the Hyper-Flow high-pressure jet pump and the stainless steel impeller, which runs within a precision-engineered housing.
RiDE system (Reverse with Intuitive Deceleration Electronics)
The revolutionary RiDE™ system transforms your riding pleasure, bringing a new feeling of confidence to every rider at every level. Simply pull the throttle lever on the right hand-grip to move forward and accelerate – pull the lever on the left grip to slow down or reverse. Yes, it’s really that simple!
Fast, stable hull design created in SMC
Yamaha’s SMC (Sheet Moulded Compound) material is both light and strong, for fast acceleration, high top speed and good economy. So it’s perfect for the latest design VX hull and body, which is wide (1.22m) and long (3.35m) – a size and shape designed to offer confident stability and handling in all conditions.
Unique electronic systems for new levels of control
Yamaha’s latest electronic systems – standard on the highly affordable new VX – deliver a stunning mix of rider benefits and advantages. They include electronic Reverse with traction control – a feature of the amazing Ride system – and reliable engine and driving information fed to the console’s clear, easy-read displays.
Comfortable, two-piece seat with dry storage
The ergonomically designed, precision-stitched, 2-piece seat is truly innovative. Perfect for riding with up to 3 people, its high comfort level will make you feel like it’s been custom-made to fit you. What’s more, there’s a very handy dry storage area underneath it.
Multi-function LCD instruments & large dual mirrors
Great-looking multi-funtion LCD instruments mounted in a stylish cockpit panel are not something you might expect on such a keenly priced watercraft. Nor might you expect large dual mirrors, but the VX has them to help you keep an eye on what’s going on behind – very valuable when towing a wakeboard or skier.
Boarding ladder and towing hook
The VX will really appeal to watersport fans, with its comfortable three-person seat, deep re-boarding step – and strong, practical tow hook. Comfortable, slip-resistant deck mats are another real pleasure to look forward to after wakeboarding, skiing or swimming with friends.
