2010 YAMAHA VX SERIES Waverunner
Mon, Mar/15/2010
The Yamaha VX® Series Waverunner is virtually all-new for 2010. Enhancements include a new deck design that provides more comfort and better ergonomics, as well as a more fun and
drier ride.For 2010, the award-winning VX® Series includes the VX Cruiser®, VX®
Deluxe, and the VX® Sport.
All-New Deck Design: More Comfort, Striking New Styling
The VX Series deck integrates the look and feel of Yamaha luxury watercraft by creating
a roomier cockpit for the operator. To do that, the seat length of the VX has been
increased to provide more legroom for taller riders with the driver’s compartment being
expanded by 4”. The overall effect is not only more comfortable for the operator, but it
also gives the VX Series a striking new profile that mirrors Yamaha’s more expensive
FX® line. Completing the cockpit are new mirrors that have been repositioned for
improved visibility, a larger glove box; and a larger, more convenient reverse lever.
For passengers, the seat of the three-person VX Series has been redesigned with a
larger bolster for more comfort when riding with two or three people. In addition, the
padded surface of the VX reboarding platform has been increased for added comfort
and versatility.
New Refinements: More Fun, Drier Ride
One of the key reasons for the VX Series’ success is its exhilarating ride. Now, the best
ride in the Value category is even better with refinements that include a new ride plate,
repositioned new sponsons and a new deck design that moves the center of gravity
more aft.
These changes strengthen the handling character of the new VX Series, making it more
nimble on the water and more fun to drive than ever before.
