    I just bought two brand new Yamaha Waverunners VX Cruiser HO. I was at Lake Perris in California breaking our Waverunners. I was right behind the boats catching waves. I believe my damage came from as the water gets behind the lower my wave runner gets lower as well in the water and scrapped something, I don't know what it was. Came home inspect the bottom there it was a ding. So, I'm getting repaired costing me $1,400.00. The shop I took it to has to repair the with clear coat and do what ever it takes to look brand new again. I bought the wife one as and giving me a hard time about it, in a good way. She telling me my wave runner has no damage. Listen learned.

    Thanks for the content. I'll be a first time waverunner owner this spring (FX Cruiser SVHO) and I appreciate the information on all your videos. Very useful, and helpful advice. Hello from here in Rhode Island/USA. Thanks again!

    Thanks for the tips. I’ve unfortunately already made the mistake of being toed too fast, which put about 1ltr of water into the oil. Lucky it was fresh water and a few oil changes had it sorted. If it was salt, bye bye engine. I’d never heard of the toe tap, so thank you very much!

      When we got ours we took it easy for the first 5 hours and didn’t use sports mode. After that full throttle and sports mode are good to go.

    Hey mate question with flushing your jetski, how long do you let the hose flush ur engine? Ive only taken mine out a couple of times but flush it for about 3 mins. Is this enough or will I need to go abit longer, cheers love your content

    • @TheLanesOfficial
      @TheLanesOfficial  Před 3 lety +1

      With flushing its usually between 30 and 90 seconds, depending which ski you have it may vary but 3 mins sound like a long time

      There is no such thing as flushing to long, it won't hurt anything.

      If you get something stuck in the grate, but not in the impeller I've found that if you kill the engine and rock the ski side to side the trash will clear itself.
