Just ask any drag racer - supercharged is the ultimate path to massive engine power. Supercharging delivers instantaneous throttle response and boost immediately available from idle. In making the JET SKI ULTRA 260X the ultimate personal watercraft, we used a potent direct-drive Roots-type air-pump system that constantly is supercharging the intake mixture. The system pressurises the engine’s inlet tract up to 1.74 times atmospheric pressure - or 11.4 psi. Delivering more air means more oxygen is available for more powerful combustion. But since compressed air builds heat, a massive aluminium intercooler drops the air charge right down to ambient temperature. Now that’s powerful engineering.

Not only does Kawasaki reassert its claim to the personal watercraft throne, it adds a sophisticated touch with the Jet Ski Ultra 260LX. Featuring the same performance-enhancing modifications as the Ultra 260X, the Ultra 260LX adds a plush luxury seat with seperate spaces for each passenger that provides a more secure, planted feel. Plus a special paint scheme that further distinguishes it as Kawasaki's premiere Jet Ski watercraft model.
