Kawasaki Ultra 250X - 250 hp Jet Ski

4 April 2007 by EDB

Kawasaki Ultra 250X

If you’re of the opinion there’s no such thing as too much horsepower, Kawasaki has something for you. You’ve probably seen their ads by now of the brand new Ultra 250X Jet Ski. The 250 in the name represents 250 horsepower from a supercharged and intercooled 1498cc inline 4 cylinder engine, which makes it the most powerful personal watercraft in the world.

Kawasaki must like using the term “most powerful” when describing their products because their new ZX-14 motorcycle is likewise the most powerful production motorcycle, you have to wonder what they have up their sleeves in the rest of their product lineup.

The 250X uses a Roots type supercharger with a maximum of 11.4 pounds of boost and an air to water intercooler. The new hull is 250mm longer and is designed for neutral handling, a confidence inspiring trait when wrestling with all of that power. There’s also a Smart Learning Operation (SLO)-Mode function which allows new riders to get comfortable before turning them loose on this beast under full power. Separate keys enable one mode or the other. A 20.6 gallon fuel tank means you won’t need frequent fill ups.

If horsepower is your pleasure, you might want to check this out.
