You forgot to mention the weight . I work on all PWC and they are all heavy . Something that some don’t realize when your in a beached situation- you cannot drag it off , full of fuel they are over 1000lbs
The camera coverage on this vid is first rate!
Thanks for the awesome review!
Super helpful review..thank you for making this video!
Own one exactly like that, over 400 Ohio River miles on her Perfect, Love It.

Is the max volume on the music speakers loud enough to hear your music as you're riding at full throttle?

I just bought one and took it out to Lake Shasta this weekend...so nice. Since I'm only at 3 hours, I didn't womp on it...but you can feel it.
Great review sir! And you’re one of the few that don’t call them all JetSkis, well done. 👍.
Fantastic review!
I have the same one and can 101-103kmh, great machine!
Great broadcast like usual! I am really into this new engine and have a total crush on a GP HO in the torch red colorway! Quality content, mate. Cheers from Florida. 071024
Great review sir!
Nice review, that looks like a nice PWC.
Great video! I would love to see the 2024 GP I am considering getting one.
Thanks for the video! I just bought one, had it out twice for a total of about 8 hours. Love it! But it seems like mine tends to lean to the left when not on plane - did you notice that behavior? Any idea of a cause?

i've ridden every yamaha, you would be surprised how playful the fx is, definitely shocked me
we want with the GP1800R SVHO the 2024 plzzz man
The only real difference between this and my 2022 VX HO is the jet trim, cup holders and the ability to load a map in the larger display. My VXHO is perfect

The main difference is the new block head, 1.8L is cracking cylinder block heads. Very common.

hopefully Yamaha comes out with an adventure style FX cruiser for 2025 - I'd really like to have the option of a windshield like seadoo does. If they don't I might be a seadoo man.
My 23 VX HO will do 65 MPH with me at 200 lbs. Also if I am not mistaken, the FX is only 1/2 inch wider than the VX. So cup holders and a couple inches in length is the only things I see different than the VX.

Can you anchor these in mid lake or river?

Sure. Would be a little tricky as you would probably need to store it in the nose, which makes it hard to access. But it's definitely doable.
Do you feel this makes the SVHO obsolete? Regular vs prem fuel. less cost, etc?

That's why I stay with kawasakis.. The hulls otherwise I'd be on the Yamaha team. But too. Many horror stories with Yamahas hulls. Super dumb on their end to not fix that 5 to 10 lbs of weight in making a proper hull would not hurt anyone. And make it night and day difference.
How much

Sucks that the 2024 HO's now use about the same amount of fuel as the SVHO 's do, defeating the purpose of the HO models...that 1.9 is a THIRSTY engine!

They fixed the problem of the paint coming off and peeling in the Hull ?And the most important thing did they fixup the issue whit oil getting in the head? is a oil pan issue .

Paint still sucks
Wait for the 2026 models with Gel coat hull, not the car paint which it breaks. It's a shame, so close to be the perfect PWC. Kawi is under powered, and Sea doo ST3 hull it's so bad to control.
Got the 24 vx deluxe but kinda wish I got an HO
