The watercraft, as well as one of three-seater GTX siblings, features Orbital Direct Injection.Ī carbureted version of the RX also is available.) The mechanics of the system, air-pressure-driven injectors combined with electronic fuel-injection components and mapping to deliver precise amounts of fuel to each of 951cc engines two cylinders are not as relevant as the outcome: up to 75-percent reduction in emissions, according to Sea-Doo literature. Speed and handling are highlights of the two-seater RX DI, but they are far from the whole story. Throughout the most aggressive S-turns, the ride was dry, although if you want to kick up cooling spray by leaning all the way forward and burying the watercrafts nose in a turn it can be done. The 130-horsepower RX DI delivers that crisp agility with a hull that tracks exceptionally and doesnt skip or slide in corners.Įlectronic variable trim, or VTS in Sea-Doo speak, certainly helps hold through turns, but once familiar with the RX DI I was able to turn confidently at relatively high speeds with the PWC trimmed up all the way.
Thats fast, the kind of fast on the water that could be frightening on a PWC with anything less than exceptional handling. We all know personal watercraft speedometers lie, often to the tune of 5 mph. In fact, midway through the turn, I get back on the throttle all the way and exit the corner with tired arms. Who said greed is good A couple more seconds turns into a few more seconds, and now the buoy is too large and too close for comfort, so I drop the trim, back off the throttle a tad and pitch the RX DI into the corner, fully expecting to spin.
I should be setting up for a sweeping 180-degree turn but I need a couple more seconds to get the most out of this speed run.
