Overview

The Yamaha EX Series represents a new line of affordable wave runners designed to deliver a balance of performance, features, and value. The series includes three models: the base EX, the EX Sport which adds a manual reverse function, and the EX Deluxe that incorporates advanced ride technology. These models are powered by Yamaha's TR1 engine, a high-output, three-cylinder 1049cc powerplant that is notably smaller, lighter, and more fuel-efficient than its four-cylinder predecessors while producing greater power.

Power and Performance

Each EX model is equipped with the TR1 engine, which is 40% smaller and 20% lighter than the previous M1 engine, yet delivers improved power output. The engine drives a three-blade stainless steel impeller set at a 21.2-degree angle, contributing to efficient propulsion and responsive handling. Yamaha pairs this powertrain with a generous 13-gallon fuel tank, surpassing competitors in this category. Performance testing revealed a top speed of 51.1 miles per hour and a cruising speed of 29 miles per hour with a fuel consumption rate of 3.2 gallons per hour, underscoring the model's efficiency and capability.

Features and Handling

The EX Sport model introduces a manual reverse feature, enhancing maneuverability, while the EX Deluxe adds Yamaha's ride technology for greater control and safety. This technology includes an intelligent left trigger that allows the rider to decelerate rapidly and stop in the shortest distance possible without sacrificing control. The trigger also enables seamless shifting into neutral or reverse with simple squeezes, making operation intuitive and safe. The hull design is a key contributor to the EX Series' handling characteristics, providing precise, predictable responsiveness and exceptional stability. During rigorous testing, the wave runner maintained composure and resisted tipping, whether standing or sitting, delivering a fun yet secure riding experience.

Conclusion

The Yamaha EX Series wave runners successfully combine affordability, thoughtful features, and impressive performance. Their advanced engine technology, generous fuel capacity, and innovative ride control systems make them a compelling choice for riders seeking both fun and reliability. The stable and predictable handling further enhances their appeal, ensuring confidence on the water. Overall, the EX Series stands out as a well-rounded offering in the affordable wave runner market.
