I'm really considering the GP1300R from Yamaha since it's still a 2 stroke but I really don't want to have to deal with buying an old ski. It's also a good bit cheaper than the Seadoo. I probably will buy a second ski after I buy a boat..but right now I only need one.

2 strokes are only banned in homo tree hugging states.If I were in the market for a jet ski though I would go with the turbo Honda.I dont think it would take too much to make it "faster"
I dont have a PWC but I pimp this...
23 feet,2 engines,280hp.It tops out at 50 and thats pretty fast for the water.Especially on a windy day when its rough and choppy

I used to ride an older polaris, they were alot of fun...I think the old small one I used to ride maxed at 63mph on a perfectly smooth river with my big *** on it. Jumping houseboat wakes was alot of fun.
On another note, the new yamahas look nice, but they seem to be low on the hp totem pole.

I had a 96 sea doo 650 xp, and for the one year I had it, I spend over $650 on parts for the pos. It wasnt the fastest but it went alright. I had to put a new flywheel and driveshaft in it, since the spined shaft decided to srtip out inside the flywheel.

Anyways the Honda turbo ski only makes 165hp and the Yamaha GP1300R makes 170hp N/A. I believe the Yamaha is a little bit lighter and they both have excellent handling characteristics according to several reviews I've read. I actually haven't seen too many optional parts for the Honda ski but I have seen quite a few for the RXP and the GP1300R.
