Appreciated!

More to come!

Glad we could help!

Awesome

Yeah big stuff

Right?!

Glad you enjoyed it

The ride plate is not the same as RIVA’s but shares some traits. The new Connext screen isn’t all that new since it’s used on their boats, so there’s little threat of failure.

Glad you enjoyed it

The review of the ‘22 FX SVHO Limited is coming soon.

We all knew it needed a ride plate.

Is it really that long? Man have PWC gotten big!

The '00 GTX is 0.7" longer than the Jetblaster. Idk where you got your numbers man lol

Thank you

Yeah?

@@watercraftjournal You not a fan of Yamy?

@@ricksters11 yamaha makes the best pwc

Thanks for the info!

@@watercraftjournal And thank you for the new line up review!!

Just get a boat to fish on dude

Sure seems like it!

100% Nano2. Top and bottom.

They're hoping to be "on time" which means around November/December.

@@watercraftjournal 😅 hopefully, I am guessing 2022 will be the year wend we finally get to see the big 3 go head.thats if " team green bring the secret sauce" we all are looking forward for 2022..thanks brother

Wouldn't that be awesome?!

@@watercraftjournal yes indeed.

That’s really too tough to answer in the comment section of a KZfaq video.

Thank you Billy!

Very cool!

Great to hear!

Great!

Seat, colors and pop-up cleats.

Very cool.

See our video on this very topic.

@@watercraftjournal can you provide a link to the video please?

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/htF3p9ikzKfck2g.html

Very unlikely.

@@watercraftjournal So I email the jet fish guy I know I was goin to sell his other kits here in the states for the 2012 to the 2018 fx line but the covid messed that up and he says he did have a helping hand in this with yamaha to make the kits just thought I let you know.

Cool!

You heard correctly

Fingers crossed!

More comfortable ride is only the start.... hull and paint not cracking is gonna be great

@@conpoulos7233 defiantly an advantage. The svho going up 50lbs is a easy compromise for me. Not like I’ll feel the difference since I’m not a pro racer.

Seems like a MASSIVE waste of money to hack up a brand new sound system that would likely void your ski's warranty.

@@watercraftjournal I like all the other aspects of the system but I’m sure the JL speaker sounds better than the stock ones. I wonder how easy it will be to swap them out. If it voids the warranty then of course I’m not going to switch them out. I’m sure they’ll be tolerable though until they get upgraded. Perhaps if Yamaha did the service it wouldn’t void the warranty. I don’t think that swapping out a pair of speakers should be looked at as “hacking” up a system if it’s done by a professional.

What do you see in the video and article?

The fx limited svho. I’m interested in the base fx svho.

We will always recommend that someone learn to ride a standup. It makes you a better rider of everything.

No. You'll need to order the EcoXgear speakers.

It’s a step in the right direction.

Exactly. Yamaha has said October, but expect it to be slightly later (just to be safe).

Good question! Obviously, Australia is getting their orders first as summer is nearing right now.

Awesome!

@@watercraftjournal I got a response from Nash powersports in Phoenix , the financing Guy told me they got 65% cut from Yamaha for 2022 ....bummer but I am the only one who put my name on the list for the 2022 Yamaha fx svho cruiser so I put a deposit on two , he swears they do not and will not sell it from under me , he said have a 1 week policy they call you come in and pay or finance or they look for buyers . Fingers crossed , I know deposits are a joke I told him at any time I can put 5-10k down easy . I also pick up my triton tandem torsion dual jet ski trailer in October in Sacramento so here's to hoping it all comes together.

Kevin’s done a video on this very topic already.

Thanks I’ll check it out

Maybe opt for a '22 FX. The improvements are significant.

Hulls typically last 8-9 years, with Kawasaki being the big exception. The current FX hull is only 2 years old.

i doubt that

Absolutely not. They want you to buy a NEW ski.

Wait just a little longer

Thanks!

@@watercraftjournal love the new blaster

Possibly.

Good riddance to Nano

Probably the opposite. There were problems with the nano.

The value of old junk doesn't go up...🤣

@@MrTheguywiththemoney Classic car enthusiasts might disagree buddy

Doubtful

Let us know which one you get!

54mph.

Looks to be that way.

Ouch!

Of which skis?

@@watercraftjournal Yamaha

The 'Blaster makes 110HP and is a riot. Super loose.

Pfft. That's an impossible question to answer. That's like asking, "Why guys! Tell me what kind of shoes to buy."

Nice!

how so? it's a direct copy of what sea-doo has on the market regarding the linq and fish pro. the blaster package is disappointing, was hoping for an actual updated waveblaster, not an EX in Blaster clothing. it's a step in the hopeful direction of the past, though

Fiberglass HULL. Nano2 deck.

@@watercraftjournal my bad. Meant to say hull. Respect how you keep it real and call things how you see them even though some of these companies advertise with you. refreshing to see. Keep up the good work.

Not in the least.

Yeah, same as 2021. See our review.

@@watercraftjournal Ahh okay 👍 I'm getting one soon hopefully early Oct.

Not available for the VX.

@@watercraftjournal i can dream

We inquired the same thing about a future Kawasaki X2. Kawasaki felt there was little market demand for such a unique craft.

Nice!

Yep > watercraftjournal.com/gallery-introducing-the-2022-yamaha-waverunner-lineup-video/

Yes

Interesting as I don’t see the SMC hull on either the Yamaha USA or Canada websites.

Lake Hartwell, GA

@@watercraftjournal hah I have family up there. Had no idea the lake was that gorgeous. What area of it are you guys using normally?

Wherever Yamaha will let us take them. That is the lake that Yamaha does a majority of its testing.

Dang. Sorry to hear that.

It’s not a waveblaster

The new Jet Blaster takes the previous EXR in a whole different direction. The new 30" wide bars, foot wedges and extended trim allows the 'Blaster to be super loose and playful. While the EXR was intended more for sportier/racier handling; the Jet Blaster is really meant for donuts, powerslides and even jumping wakes. (We know, right?!)

@@lpitte3847 Oops. I guess I miss the old days

@@watercraftjournal That's awesome! Thank you for informing me of the differences. Great video as well!

Nice

Ouch! We did not know that!

VX Cruiser HO is the way to go.

@@watercraftjournal Why do you put the VX Cruiser HO over the FX Cruiser HO as the way to go?

I'm no where near as qualified as Kevin or his crew but my opinion get the SVHO once your more experienced you will wish you went with the higher powered model, secondly Idk about your part of the world but here in AUS an SVHO sells no issues a HO sits on market for long time unless it's priced very cheap..... everyone here wants the supercharged skis for resale SVHO mite be the way to go haha

@@conpoulos7233 Because the SVHOs are more high strung and running the supercharger does that mean that they require more service and maintenance? Also, my more sensible better half has convinced me to buy one this year and if we love it as much as we think we will, we'll get another one next year. That could be the SVHO. Although I am also really curious about the super lightweight chuckable Blaster? Thanks for all the feedback. As a Noob, I need all the help I can get :-)

Blaster is a rec lite model it's great in its own right but if your looking at an FX a wave blaster is not for you.... look if you take care of the ski and you don't abuse it the supercharged model will be just as reliable as the NA model, servicing price is about the same and the supercharged ski won't need any additional maintenance/repairs for at least the first few years and by that time you will be an experienced rider and be so very glad you chose the SVHO over HO.. the SVHO engine isn't really Highly strung from factory it's very Restricted and the motor isn't being pushed to hard at all when it is in stock form go SVHO you won't regret it.... also Kevin says he always recommends the NA ski to people who ask so that is the answer you will get off him as he looks at it from an experienced rider point of view if the power scares you just use the learner mode

Our pleasure!

It's going to be varied. Containers full of units are on their way to Australia and Brazil. US dealers will see them in waves; obviously, states like Florida will see the first. Next come high volume dealers and then lastly, low volume and/or seasonal dealers.

@@watercraftjournal thanks Kevin

As they should be!

It can be yours! Just click the link in the description!

FX HO

LOL! Good eye - but probably not.

BTW, I wish the damn dealer or anyone for that matter would have told us about ALL the new upgrades!

They 1. Had ZERO knowledge; most dealers are clueless. 2. Free upgrade? That’s laughable.

........ mods..

And more mods.

Thoughts on intake grates? I'm worried about sucking up seaweed while offshore. Is it a real risk or no more than stock?

Wish I could retro fit some features on 2022 my ski's on my 2019 fx ho Darren from Australia

I think by the video, you can put the rear deck on, and anything that goes with it.

Right on!

I appreciate that!

$$$

LOL well, that would be different.

Yeah, it ain't cheap these days.

Yamaha didn’t pay for a mandatory ad. Sorry, but since you’re getting this for free we need to pay the bills elsewhere.

Yes, that's a perfect summary.

Don't expect a fishing-anything from Kawi.

Second jetski will be for play. Seadoo fishpro for fishing and for the mrs. Kawasaki was going to be my mess around ski or the Fx svho.

On the fxho was the transducer on the inside or outside of the hull for the garmin?

No doubt. A way better ski though. I have a 2020. I have the Spark as well. Not to sure about that color though. Very retro. Yamaha needs to step it up with nicer colors like Sea-Doo. Just my opinion. Great skis all around..

Exactly

@@seadoo4life127 Said it perfectly

It costs $4000 more then a Seadoo Spark Trixx ( canadian $) still. Its the same price as a 2022 Seadoo GTI SE 170 lol. I don't see it being competition at that price.

@@MikeZ32TT price vs value genius 🤯🥴

Yup. Just new colors.

Yessir!

@@watercraftjournal Wait I have to get that light blue FX SVHO for a 7 inch screen. No way I would ride that. I will have stay with my 21 VX deluxe another year or so until all models have phone integration.

Nobody knows what ANY of your comments mean, David.

We love the EXR. Plus Yamaha says the 'Blaster isn't meant for wheelies.

Yeah it’s cool.

Kawi’s are a good bargain

Didn’t get the chance.

LOL

It’s the cost of crossing the border. As a Canadian brand, Sea-Doo does not have to pay the same fees as Yamaha.

No change at all

Just a price increase (in Canada at least).

Nothing new with it other than the colors.

@@wixard7 yea but whats the colors

Bold new graphics

👍🏻

Check the website

Pipe?

LOL

Any one that's riden a ski 😆

RXPX doesn’t have a back seat standard.

@@watercraftjournal this is true but I’d rather pay the extra 500 bucks for the seat and still save money. The fx svho tops out at over 25k Canadian. Great skis but not for that price. I’ll take a gtx 230.

I tell you why coz on a Yamaha you won't sink,, love the seadoo look I think there skis are much better looking then Yamaha's, but reliability wise Yamaha is the better ski..... if seadoo ditches the carbon seal il buy one

@@conpoulos7233 well maybe that will happen. But apparently there have been very few incidences with the carbon seal in 2021. I agree they should ditch it but not all the carbon seals are failing. Some is rider fault too. I have no prob with Yamaha but for the price here in Canada seadoo makes better sense

Works off the tach, I believe. Which would explain some of the oddball readings I get while pushing against the current while crossing bars ect.

No it’s calculated off of the engine RPM

Larger video on it coming soon!
