No Turbo TL, But something close!!!

Was going to bite the bullet on the 3rd Gen TL turbo kit until I found this and couldn't resist

2007 Honda Aquatrax R-12X
1235cc, turbo-charged

Let me know what you guys think?

Jetskis are fucking AWESOME, I'm sure that one is even better than the ones I've been on. Have fun with it, and be safe!

That's true, but I live at the beach and have a house on a lagoon. So I drop it in the water in my backyard

I was looking around at almost new ones for around $7K (without a trailer). I got lucky and stumbled upon this one for $6.5K with the trailer and only 20 hours on the machine!

AWESOME pick up, man! Good for you! How much HP does that thing have?

My roommate's uncle has two SeaDoo's that we use on Long Island Sound in CT during the summer, one is a '99 while the other is an '06 supercharged version with 215HP... They FLY! We had them out last weekend jumping off the wake of a 75 foot yacht at 9 in the morning. It really doesn't get any better than that.

Enjoy it and be safe!

Yeah there's no doubt SeaDoos are one of the quickest skis out there! Mine has 165Hp stock, but looking at a MacsBoost Stage II kit to bring it up into the range of 215Hp. Can't leave my car stock, so why would my PWC be any different
