Kawasaki Jet Ski stand-up 37 years history - World Exclusive

Legendary stand-ups

Kawasaki introduced the first stand-up Jet Ski back in 73 and it took 3 years to bring it into mass production. The Jet Ski logo became synonymous with every type of personal water craft and after a remarkable history of 37 years Kawasaki decided to pull of the plug of the stand-up production line. We present exclusively the Kawasaki stand-up historic line up and the riding impression of almost all those historic stand-ups.

Kawasaki Jet Ski WSAA-WSAB 1973

Clayton Jacobson II could not make an agreement with another manufacturer until the end of the exclusive license with Bombardier in 1971. The day after it expired he went into a partnership with Kawasaki and sold off his patent rights to them. He developed a stand-up personal watercraft, similar to his original concept design, for Kawasaki branded the Jet Ski. The difference was that it featured a collapsible vertical pole which swung down onto the deck of the craft. The design was meant to be for a more personal craft, and had room for only one person. Jacobson and Kawasaki created six different prototypes in 1972, before bringing two to market in 1973, the WSAA and the WSAB. Gordon Garant was most probably the first test rider for the Kawasaki Jet Ski project.

 

Kawasaki is the only personal watercraft manufacturer who invested so much in Stand-Ups. Simply figure out how many models they have designed and for how long they have been in the market. The legendary JS440 and JS550 spent more than 15 years in the company’s line up while the SX/SXi and the SX-R were around for 10 years. No other personal watercraft manufacturer had ever had such a brilliant line up of Stand-Ups. Yamaha had three (almost four) editions (650 and 701 square nose, the ‘96 SJ and the 2008) of the SuperJet, while Polaris barely made it to manufacture one Stand Up.

 

Kawasaki decided to pull of the plug on the stand-up project after being not only innovative but the first ever manufacturer who brought the stand-up ski to the world. Although, the Japanese factory has already made a lot of work prior producing a four-stroke stand up the dream of all those Kawasaki fanatics and enthusiasts was died when Kawasaki announced the termination of the SX-R model in the end of 2011.

 

Kawasaki Jet Ski WSAA-WSAB 1973

The two original models were made of hand-laid fiberglass, and included the 1973 WSAA Jet Ski 400, and the WSAB Jet Ski 400. The WSAA featured a flat bottom design that stayed with the JS hull until 1994. The WSAB featured a V-hull that enhanced turning, but was less stable and harder to ride. Approximately 550 of these, WSAA and WSAB, Jet Skies were ever produced, a third of them with the V hull and the other two-thirds with the flatter WSAA hull.

 

According to Fred Tunstall a log time Kawasaki employee, Kawasaki went with the two hulls because they were uncertain about who the customer was going to be. The flat hull was much more stable and easy to use; however there was some thought that the V-hull would attract riders interested in competition. Kawasaki never quite knew what they are going to do, especially in rough water. “Man, that thing could curve. The first ride on it, it is worse than a wild horse, but after you spent some time getting used to it, it turned into a lot of fun.”

 

Apart from the hull design, the two models were the same. In fact, they share the same dimensions, 6-feet, 10 inches long, 24 inches wide and 26 inches high, with a dry weight of 220 lbs and a draft of 4 inches .  Those crafts were only slightly shorter approximately by 2.5 inches and lighter about 25 lbs than the long lived Jet Ski 400.

The 1973 models had a real prototype look, with the wooden bulkhead braces and hand-machined hardware and sand cast aluminum parts.

 

Back in 1993 Kawasaki WSAA and WSAB cost $995 and both craft were the pioneers of Jet Ski that Kawasaki launched in mass production in 1976 with the JS400. These crafts are collectors’ items and among some of ex Kawasaki employees like Tunstall and Bigelow who own those two crafts there are only a few Jet Ski collectors like Gary Hart, and Ty Mc Farland who also include those to their collections. We had visited KMC premises a few years ago and two of those are still on their selves. A complete story of WSAA and WSAB is featured in Vintage Jet Ski section.

Kawasaki Jet Ski JS400 1976

Actually this was the first Kawasaki Jet Ski which was made in mass production. It was a whole new story for Kawasaki which in a way pioneered the sport of personal watercraft, initially called jet skiing a name that was kept until nowadays.

 

Riding such a Jet Ski brings so many memories back to your mind. It is so narrow and sensitive to the body movement and positioning that makes you wonder how the athletes managed to race those skis on rough water conditions. The V shape bars keep your elbows close to the main body, a fact that minimised the action for proper steering. The engine’s power band is so narrow that as soon as you accelerate and stabilise your body the power is almost at its bear end. You have to be smooth and positive to all your actions in order to maintain overall stability and have fun without losing control. Body positioning is very crucial and the rider needs to go with the flow in order to keep the crafts momentum and speed to a reasonable level. The top speed of this Jet Ski was 30mph, a substantial number for 1976. Just bear in mind that through the 37 years of history the top speed of the Jet Ski reached 49.6mph in 2003-2012 with the SX-R. Not a big change...

Kawasaki Jet Ski JS440-A: 440SX 1977
In 1977, Kawasaki Jet Ski JS440 was introduced. It came with a new jet pump, handlebar mounted ignition controls (previously, on the JS400, the controls i.e. on/off switch and choke were situated on the front dash board), and a 440cc two-stroke engine. The 440 engine was almost the same as the old 400, but had a bigger cylinder bore.

The difference in torque was small however it was worth it for bigger or heavier riders. Riding this craft on a buoy course was a great experience especially when it was tuned to a Superstock version. Many riders were using it for Slalom course application since it felt lighter and easier to push it to the limit and since the engine had more torque it made the difference on buoy exit speed. The top speed of the craft was the same 29-29.5mph as of its little brother the JS400.

Kawasaki Jet Ski JS550: 550SX 1982

In 1982, the Kawasaki Jet Ski JS550 became available for purchase. Not only did this new 550 had an engine that generated more power than a 440, with a bigger cylinder bore, and an improved exhaust pipe. The 550 also had a unique "mixed flow" pump that provided better low-end thrust. The 1982 JS 550 was available in yellow, with red decals. The 1983-1989 JS550s had red hulls, initially with a left front exhaust exit, but replaced by one the right front from 1986 onwards. The 1990-1994 JS 550SX models were white with a rear exit exhaust. This line of JS watercraft maintained very similar designs throughout their production from 1973–1994, and are still the only watercraft to have remained in production for so long.

 

The riders who started their racing career on a JS550 turned out to be multi World Champions in the future. This hull was unique in terms of design, dimensions and the feeling it was giving to the rider. It felt so lightweight and so narrow like no other craft in the class. Combined with the stronger engine you could actually learn how to ride it aggressively with body dragging and carrying more speed round the buoy. I have personally spent countless hours on the race course under any kind of water condition on riding this craft, and to my opinion this particular Jet Ski was “The School” of every successful rider. The top speed of this craft for the 91-93 models was 37-37.8mph.

Kawasaki Jet Ski JS300: 300SX 1986

In 1986 Kawasaki presented a new entry-level Jet Ski, the 300SX which was different in many ways than its sister JS300. The hull has been redesigned with a V-shapped bottom and a 2 in wider tray and the craft was 5.5 in shorter than the JS. The deeper hull design made the 300SX 2.6 in higher than the JS300, giving the ski a totally different appearance. Also it had a larger tank ( 5 gallons ) compared to the 3.4 gallon tank of the JS. Additionally the exhaust routine was changed and the gases were shooting the water through the through-hull silencer rather than on the side. Cosmetically, the new 300SX had changed a lot and looked similar to the 650SX.

 

The V-bottom hull helped considerably in tight turning instead of having to dig a rail hard into the water to make the nose stick, just turning the bars and leaning the craft was all that was needed for a tight turn. The new hull made the craft far more stable cutting across the incoming wakes and ground swells. In general it felt easier to master than the previous flat-bottom hull JS. Back in those days the new 300SX was the most appropriate entry-level craft with sporty orientation and surprisingly performance.

Kawasaki Jet Ski JS650-A: 650SX 1987

When the 650SX was released in the market Kawasak branded it with the catch phrase “The Ultimate solo performance”. Actually the 635cc twin-cylinder two-stroke engine was derived from the X-2 which was launch a year earlier. However the new stand-up featured a unique V-hull design that increased stability during boarding and during high-speed riding.

 

It was the first Kawasaki which reached top speed of almost 40mph. Actually, its peak speed was 39-39.3mph. It made the difference back in 1987 and many top racers switched from JS550 to 650SX, like Jeff Jacobs. Although it spend almost a decade in Kawasaki ’s line up it was left aside when the Akashi Company presented SX750 in 1992.

Kawasaki Jet Ski JS750-A: 750SX 1992

Kawasaki opened a whole new chapter in stand-up history by designing the JS750SX which was the only stand-up ever produced back in 1992 with a two-stroke, 750cc twin-cylinder engine. It was the biggest twin-cylinder Jet Ski back in 1992. The hull was new too totally different form the 650SX.

 

Stepping from JS550 or JS650 to a 750SX was a unique experience since you realise immediately the wider tray, the difference on the pole and bars as well as the better acceleration from the torquer engine. In fact I was personally shocked since I actually learned how to race on a JS550 and then I moved up to the JS750. The hull was responding much better to the rider’s control and decisions. Steering was more precise and effective, a fact that enhanced the overall performance. Certainly you needed to alter your riding style to suit the new hull as well as this craft was going easier and sharper round the buoy and it was much more fan to play on the waves. The top speed gain was substantial since the new 750SX was running somewhere between 44-45mph and that brought the sport to a whole new level.

Kawasaki Jet Ski JS750:750 SXi 1995

Kawasaki decided to update the engine of the 750cc by installing dual Mikuni carburettors in order to enhance it horsepower and to improve the overall performance of the craft. This was actually the main difference from its predecessor. The engine carried also many updates to the internals.

 

This particular model had more power and better acceleration out of the buoy. The engine was crispier and had better overall throttle response through out the rev range. The twin carburettors made the difference. On the other hand Kawasaki had kept the same hull design and used exactly the same intake grate and ride plate as a result the hull had the tendency to porpoise even at top speed. The twin carb SXi was pulling harder out of the buoy and it was greater fan to ride on the waves since it was more user friendly and it was providing better acceleration. In terms of top speed the craft was hitting 50.3mph.

Kawasaki Jet Ski SXi 750 Pro 1999

Kawasaki decided to change the hull of the popular model with a new one which was initially tested extensively via the Kawasaki Jet Ski Racing Team. Actually, we have found out that a certain Racing Team has made those modifications in the first place to Rob Flore’s Kawasaki and those were race proven so Kawasaki bought those mods prior manufacturing the particular model.

 

The new hull was the big news for the popular Kawasaki stand-up. Riding it on a race course it was providing better turning by enabling the rider to lean it sharply and accurately on every kind of turn. Sweeping buoys on wide open throttle was a usual act especially by top racers like Victor Sheldon, Chris MacClugage and Dustin Motzouris. The particular hull was purpoising less than the previous one and the rear sponsons fitted under the bond flange made the difference. This model was actually the best JS750 that Kawasaki ever produced in terms of its good handling and rapid turning characteristic.

Kawasaki Jet Ski JS800 SX-R
The SX-R marked the final stage of Kawasaki ’s stand up models and when it was introduced Kawasaki was already celebrating its 30th Anniversary in the Jet Ski market. The last stand-up ever produced by Kawasaki . Who would have ever imagined that the manufacturer who brought the Jet Ski and particularly the actual stand-up to mass production, was going to “call it a day” at the end of 2011. The particular craft was the result of research and development which was carried out by Team Kawasaki Jet Ski Racing on the multiple National and World title winning SXi 750 Pro.

 

SX-R raised the level of performance of stand-ups to a substantial point that no other stand-up ever had in its class. Stability was enhanced in such a way that even when you were riding it on idle speed you could actually stabilize he craft very well. The larger overall dimensions of the hull minimized purpoising under acceleration and the craft remained stable even at top speed. The new hull performed very well at wavy conditions too which made the SX-R the craft to beat in racing. The rider could go round the buoy safer with better traction and precise turning which means you could ride it easier on a faster rhythm. For almost a decade (since 2003 when it hit the market) SX-R became rider’s favorite special tool for winning National and World titles.
