Specications:

1,498 cm³ 4-Cylinder, DOHC 4-Stroke Engine

* Legendary Ninja-inspired engine adapted for personal watercraft
use.

* Chrome composite plated cylinders are lightweight, durable, and
quickly carry heat away from the combustion chamber and piston for
supreme durability at high power output.
* Dry sump oil tank built into crankcase.
* Tip-over protection shuts engine off if craft tilts more than 61°.

4-Valve Cylinder Head

* High lift cams provide high performance.
* Better breathing for more power at high rpm.
* Provides maximum valve area for optimum ow.
* Corrosion-resistant materials used for durability in marine
environment.

Supercharger

* Roots-type supercharger produces large amounts of boost, even at

low rpm, for instant and powerful acceleration right off idle.

* Every supercharger revolution force-feeds the engine two liters of
high-pressure intake air at all rpm for a very at yet meaty torque
curve and step-free power across the rev range with none of the time
lag associated with turbochargers.
* Two air bypass valves prevent over-boosting at low and medium
rpm.
* Boosts power to the equivalent of a normally aspirated
high-performance engine twice its size

Intercooler

* Pressurising the intake air heats it to extremely high temperatures
which would rob power, but the liquid-cooled intercooler reduces
intake air to ambient temperature, or even less, for higher
combustion efciency and more power.

Digital Fuel Injection

* High-ow fuel injectors at each cylinder complement the 260X’s
maxium power output.
* Large 60mm throttle body for ample airow.

Water Cooling

* Water jacket designed to ensure maximum cooling performance.
* Force fed from jet pump with inlet lter to prevent clogging.
* Water-cooled oil cooler helps regulate engine

temperature.

TCBI Ignition with Digital Advance

* Transistorised ignition uses a digital microcomputer to precisely
control optimum ignition timing.
* ECU and ignition coils are waterproof.•

Smart Learning Operation (SLO) mode

* Activated with a separate key, the Smart Learning Operation feature
limits engine speed to approximately 5,800 rpm, which reduces
maximum speed by approximately 30 percent so that unskilled
operators can practice maneuvering the watercraft at reduced power
until they become more familiar with its operation. When activated,
SLO appears on the multifunction meter screen and FPO (Full Power
Operation) appears when normal operation is selected.

Water-Jacketed Semi Dry Exhaust System

* Double-walled exhaust manifold helps reduce noise.
* Water surrounding the exhaust system lowers engine compartment
temperatures for more power.
* Semi-dry exhaust system is designed to prevent water from
entering engine if the boat should capsize.
* New single waterbox mufer lowers noise and reduces weight.

* Exhaust Emissions meet CARB 2008 regulation.

Fiberglass Hull

* Designed using feedback from Kawasaki’s IJSBA
championship-winning machines, the hull is longer and wider than
that of the STX-15F and offers the industry‘s best stability and
responsive handling in calm and rough waters.
* Deep 22.5-degree V-angle at the bottom of the hull provides better
“grip” for racing-like performance.
* Sponsons extend further from the hull to enhance straight-line
performance and high-speed maneuverability.
* Four Kawasaki Splash Deector (KSD) ridges across the bottom of
the bow minimizes spray in a wide variety of conditions for greater
rider concentration.
* High-performance ride plate with an added groove from the center
to the rear enhances handling.
* Gel coat for a deep, lustrous, scratch-resistant nish.
* Standard re-boarding step.

Kawasaki Smart Steering

* A steering sensor is linked to the ECU to aid in boat handling when
the throttle is quickly released from high speed.

Direct Drive Axial Flow Pump

* Large pump houses a big 155mm three-blade oval edge stainless
steel impeller designed for low cavitation and improved thrust at
higher speeds.
* Oval leading edge blade shape for maximum efciency, minimum
cavitation.
* Eight-vane guide smoothes and regulates water ow from the
impeller for efcient and powerful propulsion.
* Direct drive from engine to pump; no gear reduction unit. Engine
turns lower RPM for less stress, wear, fuel consumption and vibration.
* Injection molded plastic reverse bucket is durable and provides
responsive backing action.

Largest in Class Capacity Fuel Tank

78 litre fuel tank increases cruising range.
