RiDE TECHNOLOGY

The world's first dual handlebar throttle control system is easy and intuitive. Pull the right lever to go forward, and the left lever for reverse. Pull them both, or in any combination, and the system reacts with precise control. Benefits include better handling, smooth deceleration and more control while turning.

NANOXCEL 2

The NanoXcel 2 hull and deck provides an impressive power-to-weight ratio for quicker acceleration, livelier handling and better fuel efficiency.

REBOARDING STEP

Reboarding made easier with a step that tucks away easily when not in use.

The Powerplant

• TR-1 four-stroke marine engine. The EX Series is powered by Yamaha's award-winning TR-1 three-cylinder marine engine. The EXR comes with a modified engine control unit (ECU) that increases horsepower by 10 percent compared to the rest of the EX line.
• Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI): Delivers a 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 lubricated oil to each moving part with water-jacketed sump and oil backflow protection.
• Yamaha Engine Management System (Y.E.M.S.): An integrated, computerized management system that controls and adjusts such functions as ignition timing, fuel injection mapping, engine diagnostics and OTS. The OTS function of Y.E.M.S. activates when the operator releases the throttle lever and attempts to steer the watercraft. This assists the operator in turning while the watercraft is decelerating.
• Thermostatic and Pressure Controlled Cooling System: Water flow through the engine is controlled by a thermostat and pressure system and is maintained by a pressure control valve.
• 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

• Ride (Reverse with Intuitive Deceleration Electronics) — The world's first dual handlebar throttle control system is easy and intuitive. Pull the right lever and go forward. Pull them both, or in any combination, and the system reacts with precise control. Benefits include better handling, smooth deceleration and more control while turning.
• Extended Jet Pump: Increases acceleration response.
• 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.

Ultra-Lightweight, High Strength Hull and Deck

• The EX hull is designed to be light and strong. Under the waterline is an all-new hull design that is manufactured to precise tolerances. The EXR's ultra-lightweight Yamaha NanoXcel2 hull significantly increases this model's power-to-weight ratio, delivering excellent stability for two- or three-up riding and towing, and precise responsiveness and thrilling throttle response for one-up riding.
• Progressive, V-Hull with Integrated Bow Spray Guard: Provides excellent maneuverability, handling and comfort.
• Sponson Design: Provides added straight-line comfort and an improved two and three-up riding experience.
