YAMAHA 2002 FX140

New for 2002 is the 140 horsepower, three-person Yamaha WaveRunner® FX140™, the world's first four-stroke personal watercraft and a quantum leap in personal watercraft design and styling.

The WaveRunner FX140 is a revolutionary watercraft with sleek flowing lines and a high-performance, low emission four-stroke motor that will take the sport of watercraft riding to a new place where enthusiasts and non-users can enjoy public waterways in harmony.

The FX140's MR-1 four-stroke motor exceeds all federal exhaust emission standards on the books today and can be ridden everywhere in the U.S. open to personal watercraft. An added benefit of the MR-1 design is that it is remarkably quiet for a high-performance motor.

Perhaps the greatest benefit to FX140 owners is the immediate cost savings on fuel, oil and maintenance. The FX140 is half as expensive to operate when compared to the best selling two-stroke Direct Injection model today.

The greatest feat of the Yamaha MR-1 engine is that it delivers these environmental and economic benefits without compromising performance.

The compact, lightweight MR-1 engine features a remarkably linear power band with exacting throttle response. There is no throttle hesitation, and power rolls on smoothly throughout the entire RPM range.

One of the most popular watercraft ever designed, the Yamaha WaveRunner XL760 personal watercraft delivers the comfort and craftsmanship expected from Yamaha's industry-leading, three-person watercraft at a value that is hard to resist. The XL760 is powered by a 90 horsepower, two-cylinder, 754cc Yamaha marine engine.

Under the waterline is a large, multi-chine, V-hull offering superior handling and performance. Even the most discriminating rider will be amazed by the XL760's responsiveness and ability to dig into the most aggressive of turns. Features like padded handlebars and foot trays, side-mounted adjustable mirrors, a massive 30 gallons of storage that includes four separate 13.2-gallon fuel tank ensures hours of fun between stops.
