No, the 325-horsepower 1630 ACE is not just a hopped up tune or a snazzy new supercharger. Rotax went bonkers and basically made a Stage 3 race-ready engine for the masses...and slapped it inside of its flagship RXT-X. Everything from the ECU to the carbon seal retainer is redesigned or rethought. We go over all of it HERE:

Just picked up a 2024 rxpx. Wow!! Did 5.6 hrs yesterday and she is ripping hard! The turning on this machine is incredible! The rough water stability is nothing like anything i have been on. You can be in rough water and turn at 60mph with confidence. After 3 hrs time it would hit 70 on speedo in under 5 seconds. Still only reving to 78-8 krpm but it was 90 degrees out.

First, did Kevin really just beach that brand new SeaDoo on those rocks to get some video? Second, I may have a bit of (HP) envy, but here’s the question. 325HP+ New technology= New problems. Where is the weak link? Kevin explains very well ALL the areas that SeaDoo has improved the engine, but only time will tell ( many hours at high RPM ) where the weak link lies. It isn’t a matter of IF there is one, but when it get’s discovered. Then, is it an easy fix, or an expensive one.

The 2008/9 RXTX's used to dart left and right at speed. You'd think that BRP would've corrected this dangerous condition for 2024/5 like they did during the mid 2010-18's but, like the man said they did not. And that boring excuse for a dashboard is inexcusable, what a copout. Who's designing these things anyways, a robot? So efficient though with absolutely ZERO artistic or creative inputs. Great video, Sir well done!!

Thinking of getting this over my 130 gti. The st3 hull, what is rough chop. Im on a lake with normal waves of up to 1foot. Should i be worried? Usually go around 40mph on that kind of water. Im basically between the gtrx 300 and rxtx 325, leaning to rxtx because of the space and low maintnace charger.

Great review Kevin, just a couple small errors, you said the new rockers are cast, Rotax says they are forged, and you said 0-60 in the mid fours when it's reportedly 3.4. I am kind of surprised that they didn't put the steering damper on this given the known problems with this hull and bow hunting. I would think it would make an even bigger difference on the RXT than it does on the RXP.

As to handling, the Sea Doo ranks with the best of them with the Yamaha being slightly better and the Kawi at the bottom of the list. Thats just my experience and YMMV.

LOL I Don't know what people complain about with BOW Hunting. I've got a 2021 RXT-X300 and a 2011 Rxt-x260 Both are just fine even in 2 foot chop. BOTH my friends have 2020 and 2019 supercharged SVHO's cruisers ALL our machines are stock. And both my rxt-x's Blow them away! GLASS OR CHOP and i've had a LOT of seat time on their machines too. And I honestly PERSONALLY feel they track the same. I'm not being by bias here either. In fact I rode their machines 1st before buying my Rxt-x's I use to have old 2 strokes! Their machines are what got me to buy mine. But I did some research bought seadoo's and Hands down love them a lot more. They corner much better too. Feel a lot more light and nimble as well.

@watercraftjournal
@watercraftjournal Год назад
*sigh* It's comments like these that make me hate this job. Seriously. 1. In most cases, the handlebars are installed at the dealership as leaving them installed make the skis too tall for the crates, making this an issue of dealership service centers, not the factory; 2. All steering systems are easily adjusted via a threaded cable that runs from the steering arm (visible from the engine compartment, forward of the air box) all the way to the steering nozzle out back. A small 10mm wrench is all it takes to adjust the steering one way or another. AND instructions on how to do so are found in your OWNERS MANUAL. ...but no, we get incomprehensibly stupid comments like these from people who don't have the mental bandwidth to stop and investigate the issue themselves like grown men, and instead take the time to publicly bitch in the comments section like a child. How I wish ownership of these machines required both a physical/general athleticism exam and a mechanical aptitude test.
