2015 KAWASAKI JET SKI® ULTRA® LX      Water-borne Luxury, Performance and EfficiencyThe Jet Ski® Ultra® LX personal watercraft hits all the right marks when it comes to offering performance and luxury. It’s an all-around watercraft that matches fun and excitement with performance and luxury. The Ultra LX delivers excellent performance for enthusiasts, with tremendous comfort and cavernous storage capacity.2015 KAWASAKI JET SKI ULTRA LX HIGHLIGHTS:

• Deep-V hull provides better handling

• SLO (Smart Learning Operation) allows engine speed to be limited for novices
• Kawasaki Smart Steering® (KSS®) system gives turning assistance

 HULL DESIGNThe comparison to Kawasaki’s ultimate personal watercraft is an apt one, because the Ultra LX incorporates many of the advanced features and technologies from the supercharged Ultra 310 family.The advanced hull, for example, is a fiberglass-reinforced design that allows serious maneuverability thanks to its 22.5-degree deep-V shape. PROPULSION SYSTEMThere’s Ultra 310 technology in the propulsion system. The jet pump, driveshaft and nozzle share the basic design of the 310 series, for example. This advanced system converts the horsepower of the Ultra LX into immediate yet controllable thrust via a large-diameter 155mm jet pump. Combined with a steering nozzle designed for light handling, the system delivers consistent performance, and plenty of bite, even in rough water.Everything Kawasaki knows about high-tech engine building goes into the super-efficient powerplant of theUltra LX. The reliable 1,498cc inline-four four-stroke engine is based on the one powering the legendary Ninja®ZX™-14R sportbike – the most powerful production sportbike on the planet.It delivers stunning power – 160hp[1] and nearly 1,000 pounds of thrust – plus manageable throttle response thanks to its DOHC cylinder head design, lightweight pistons, advanced fuel injection system, efficient intake tracts and optimized exhaust.The big inline-four is also surprisingly fuel efficient, which means you’ll do a lot of exploration and wave-whipping before the extra-large 20.6-gallon fuel tank runs dry. STORAGE AND COCKPITAnother reason you can disappear all day on the Jet Ski Ultra LX watercraft is its massive 60-gallon storage capacity, which means food, drinks, supplies, clothing and all kinds of gear can be easily stowed.The on-board comfort for the rider and passengers is exemplary. There’s a soft, LXuryseat with support bolsters, five-position steering that allows the rider to dial-in the right position while standing or sitting, and splash deflectors minimize spray to help keep everybody dry. There’s also a large, easy-to-read LCD display that provides a multitude of key digital information, including water and ambient temperature. Its easy-to-use reverse lever offers light operation as well. KAWASAKI SMART STEERING® (KSS®)For optimum maneuverability, the Ultra LX personal watercraft gets electronic turning assistance via its Kawasaki Smart Steering® system. KSS® features an on-board microprocessor that is linked to a steering sensor. When the handlebar is fully turned in either direction, and the engine RPM drops below a designatedspeed – such as when the throttle is released at speed – the microprocessor activates the system, raisingengine speed to provide thrust for maneuvering.There’s no end to the fun and exploration you can generate on a watercraft as performance-oriented, practical, fun and comfortable as the 2015 Ultra LX. Here’s what one journalist remarked after getting off an Ultra LX: “It unlocks parts of the ocean and planet you simply couldn’t get to before. And that’s an amazing and wonderful thing.” We couldn’t agree more.ACCESSORIESKawasaki Genuine Accessories, such as a Protective Cover, Bumpers, Anchor, etc, are available atauthorized Kawasaki dealers. ABOUT KAWASAKIKawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A.
