I got a stx 12f and I race closed course and I hit 67 mph on gps I can keep up with a 15f and if I set it up for endurance I think I would hit 69-70 mph look down and you will see my mods

hey thats ok
but does anyone know if his mods are stock class legal because that would make a good cheap racer

The free flow exhaust, skat-trak magnum pump and steering, nozzle, port and polished,and carbon fiber hood are not legal in stock class.The pump and exhaust will be legal in the new limited class.

it's not a real race it's a race that my town does it's like a club thay have enduance,closed course,and off shore racing it's every weakend you have to be 16 and up to race in it thow.

@chris1229, I send you a PM

resend the pm I did not get it

We had an stx 12f and a Seadoo RXT racing in closed course and offshore events. the RXT would beat the Kawasaki every time. slightly wider cornering but soo much more speed through the turns and in the rough. on holeshot, fairly even. I only ever ran a stage I RXP with trigger throttle against the Kaw once. 30 MINUTE OFFSHORE EVENT,he had a 2 minute head start. I beat him by about 45 sec. the rest of the field including RXTs, RXPs and XPLs was 2 minutes or more back. The only boat that challenged me at all was a triple piped STXR that pulled ahead by 5 boatlengths in the first 2 miles and then fell back due to rough seas. His boat was just beating him up too much.

Chris1229, you have more mods than you are admitting if you take a 55 MPH STX 12F and add those mods you'll never get 67 MPH.

Are you guys checking these plates for "hooks" like we do with the GPR's?

maybe his speedo reads 67 there is now way in he-- that 12 f is doing 67 with those few mods it is hard enough getting the 15 f to that speed

I have pretty much all the same mods on my 04 15f as his boat, The only thing different is I run the ajust-a-thrust and I gps's my boat yesterday at 66mph and I weigh 220lbs.As for a 15f or rxp, I rode both and I like both, As you can see I ride the 15f I think it's a better all around boat and I've never been beaten in the ocean by a Rxp, On the lakes yes.

my wife has a 1100 stxdi 3 seater and loves it but im really wanting to get a four stroke motor ski and not sure if I should go with an seadoo rxt or stick with the kawasaki (15F). 2 questions: 1. Is the 15F hull the same as the
1100 stxdi?

2. Ive ridden the RXT and the pull
from immediate take off is
incredible. Does the 15F have
that awesome low in punch?

im looking to buy an stx-15f, i was wondering how does it compare to other ski's in top speed and acceleration. thanks
