To be honest with you the ski has been pretty good. I had a problem with only 3hrs on the ski of it blowing out a counter balance seal but it was because the manfacturer crimped a vent hose off the counter balance. Since then the ski has run perfectly. The performance on the RX-DI is awesome! I know this is a Yami board but it handles the chop better then the GPR and it's blows the GPR out of the water as far as from out of the hole performance goes. It also has reverse which has been a blast! The ski burns about 8 gallons an hour at full throttle which is unheard of. I never have to worry about running out of gas. The reason I bought the ski is because my buddies have 01's and they have never had one problem with theirs so I decided to give one a try. It corners super well and does about everything well. It also has power trim which I like better then my Yamaha. Throttle response is perfect every time since is has Direct injection. You never have to worry about bogging ever. The only thing I don't like about the ski is the bow spray. It's more then my Yamah but I can't complain considering it does everything else better then my Yamaha. I almost forgot to mention that the seat is so so comfortable. I GPS'd mine last summer with a half tank of gas at 62.2mph. The 02's and the 03's are faster then the 01's. The other big plus about my RX-DI is I only paid $7200 for it new. That's cheap considering the performance I got for it.
