REMOTE TRANSMITTER
STORAGE CRUISER® SEAT REBOARDING STEP
Remotely activated with the push of a button, Low
RPM Mode serves to maximize fuel efficiency,
while another button activates Security Mode to prevent unauthorized startups.
Complete with a glove box and an easily accessed forward storage compartment, the VX Cruiser’s generous 15-gallon storage capacity makes stowing all the day’s necessities supremely convenient. A Yamaha exclusive, the innovative Cruiser seat provides optimal comfort and support for everyone aboard. Discreetly tucked away when not in use, the reboarding step makes getting back on board a truly effortless endeavor.
     The Powerplant
    • The VX Cruiser is powered by a Yamaha MR-1® four-stroke engine. This is a compact, ultra-lightweight, four-cylinder, 1052cc, DOHC, 20-valve, liquid-cooled engine for class-leading performance.
    • Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI): Delivers smooth, high power output with low fuel consumption and low exhaust emissions.
    • Specially Designed, One-piece Cylinder and Crankcase Assembly: Provides tremendous engine rigidity that's lighter and stiffer than two-piece designs.
    • Slant Detection Switch: Electronic switch stops engine and oil pumps immediately if watercraft becomes overturned, protecting motor from water ingestion.
    • Dry Sump Lubrication: Uses two engine oil pumps to deliver lubricating oil to each moving part with water-jacketed sump and oil backflow protection.
    • Corrosion Protection System: Sacrificial zinc anodes protect the engine from harmful galvanic corrosion. Stainless steel fasteners (nuts, bolts, hardware) provide a long service life.
    • Electronically Controlled, Variable Ignition Timing: For exact ignition advance control at all throttle positions and RPMs.
     The Jet Pump Propulsion System
    • The VX pump design: One of the most efficient pump configurations ever, increasing stream velocity and thrust while decreasing cavitation and prop spin.
    • Reverse: Allows the watercraft to be backed up off a trailer or out of tight spots where you cannot turn around easily.
    • Stainless Steel Impeller Housing Liner: For high durability, the liner maintains accurate clearance tolerances between the impeller and the housing.
    • High Flow Intake Duct and Grate: The dynamic shape of these items directs water flow into the pump for better thrust, performance and hook up.
    • Cooling Water Intake Filter: Filters out harmful debris that could cause blockage of important cooling water passages.
    • Pumps are Manufactured with YDC30: A combination of zinc and copper alloys, developed by Yamaha marine engineers, that offers excellent corrosion protection.
     The Ultra-Lightweight, High Strength Hull and Deck
    • The VX Cruiser hull : Designed to be light and strong.
    • Progressive, Stepper Draft V-Hull with Integrated Bow Spray Guard: Provides excellent maneuverability, handling and comfort.
    • Sponson Design: Provides added straight-line comfort and an improved two-up and three-up riding experience.
     Additional Features:
    • Cruiser Seat: Adds comfort and support for both passenger and driver.
    • Extra Large Boarding Platform with Reboarding Step: Provides a stable platform for reboarding.
    • Multi-function Electronic Information Center: Provides the operator a quick read on speed, RPM, fuel level, low fuel warning, low oil pressure warning, overheat warning, hour meter, check engine light with self diagnostic function.
    • Industry's First Remote Controlled Transmitter: With the touch of a button on Yamaha's innovative remote-controlled transmitter, you can activate and deactivate the VX digital security system and Low RPM Mode from up to 30 feet away.
    • Low RPM Mode™: The personal watercraft industry’s first fuel saving feature, Low RPM can reduce fuel consumption by up to 26% based on average annual use.
    • Dual Concave Mirrors: Automotive style and convenience.
    • 19 Gallons of Total Storage: Includes a large bow storage locker and glove box.
    • Glove Box with Self-draining Beverage Holders
    • Finger Throttle Lever: Provides added comfort while reducing hand fatigue.
    • Yamaha's Trademarked Visibility Spout®: A waterspout from the rear of the craft that improves the watercraft's conspicuity.
