YAMAHA’S ENTRY-LEVEL EX SERIES GETS PERFORMANCE BOOST WITH ALL-NEW EXR

​For 2019, Yamaha’s most affordable series of WaveRunner personal watercraft now includes the high-performance EXR that is the most powerful and lightweight Rec Lite watercraft on the water today.

​Powering the EXR is Yamaha’s awardwinning, three-cylinder TR-1® HO marine engine that comes with a modified engine control unit (ECU) that increases horsepower by ten percent compared to the rest of the EX line

​The EXR becomes the most affordable WaveRunner to feature Yamaha’s high-performance, super-lightweight NanoXcel® 2 hull and deck material. The EXR weighs in at a mere 540 lbs, which is 60 pounds lighter than the EX Deluxe. It also features a top-loader intake grate and a 40mm pump extension for more agile handling and performance.

​Completing the new EXR is Yamaha’s RiDE® dual throttle system for exceptional maneuverability (also available on the EX Deluxe model). 

​“No one has developed a watercraft quite like the EXR,” continued Watkins. “With its combination of high performance and ultra light weight, it offers the best power to weight in its class, and customers are going to find that it’s a blast to ride, unlike anything else on the water today.”
