The VXS and VXR are identical machines with the exception of one or two features. The team at Yamaha had a mission of the VXS and that was to provide the best possible high performance watercraft in a no-frills low-cost package. One noticeable point is that the production weight of this watercraft is only 728 lbs. What's nice too, is the dash and handle bars are not decorated like a Christmas tree with lots of things to look at and fiddle with.You don't get a fancy multifunction display, but for the way you will ride the VXS, all you need is the speed and the gas gauge. Speaking of gas: Yamaha has even optimized the VXS engine to run on 87 octane regular unleaded gas. You also don't get the large fuel tank -- the VXS has a 15.9 gallon tank -- but, fuel is not an issue on this watercraft as you can run it at WOT for over an hour. Your bottom will probably give out before the fuel does. The VXS likes turns and carves them like a well-honed knife. She is also very forgiving and stable at all speeds.You also get adequate storage - 15.1 gallon of space in the forward compartment, - plenty of room to bring along the essentials. And since the VXS is designed for three riders, you get a seat that is ergonomically contoured for three people.She looks as bad as they come. The sharp angular bow has pleasing lines that look great even from the driver's seat (which has a scalloped backrest). In fact, of all the vessels on the water, probably nothing is as futuristic and as fast-looking.Stability is probably this vessel's most outstanding characteristic. A very important attribute for a PWC - particularly one this narrow. Stability is what keeps you out of trouble and it is the element that makes the VXS so "forgiving." The engine compartment is very well laid out; aft of the divider bulkhead is an easily accessed battery, which is protected and convenient. There is enough space between the engine and body of the PWC to allow you to get your hands on everything, especially the oil filter, which can easily be removed without spilling oil. The engine oil dipstick is convenient on the starboard side, forward of the engine, and the air filter is right on top. What could be better than thatDon't take Yamaha's "no-frills" approach to the VXS to mean that it has cut corners. It has not. Everything that is there, with the exception of the two things I mentioned above, is top notch. If you are a beginner or even a reasonably proficient PWC rider, and want something fast, simple, stable, and affordable that can hold three people, you won't go wrong with the Yamaha VXS.
