I have been racing jetskis for the last couple of years and already know about the Yamaha power.
But if you dont have factory $$ backing you up in the Pro class you are better off using Seadoo.
I have both a Yamaha GP1200 & Seadoo XPL.
It takes less money to modify a Seadoo than a Yamaha. I can talk all night about this but in the long run I bought a Banshee and having more fun. To modify atvs or mx bikes is alot cheaper than jetskis. We had a group of 30 of us extreme
skiers and now its down to 4 of us and the rest bought quads but they were not as fortunate as me to be able to have all still. They all had to sell the skis to get the quads. Its nice to be able to bounce back and forth between the 2 sports.

I totally agree with nick.This summer was my first summer I decided to get into jetsking.Its a blast thats for damm sure.I bought 2000 yamee gp1200r with 155 horses.The machine is awsome.There aint no sea do that can touch me top end but just to be on the safe side i wanted to upgrade tp some performance parts.Well after doing all kinds of research on the web without investing atleast 2 to 3 grand you just as well keep it stock.Oh well I guess 65 mph on the water is fast enough anyways until I get beet by one of the other brands,then comes the Riva stage 2 kit But anyways I highly recomend anyone who enjoys quading to save up their $$$$ and buy a jetski.There aint nothing like the feeling of catching some mad air off of a 4 foot boat wake.I think between the two sports of quading and jetsking their aint nothing better out their!!!
oops almost forgot about sex That takes the cake....
