Not without modification.
You would have to re-flash the computer or purchase an aftermarket speed control override module. Not sure if you know the "shortcut" to get to sport mode. All you have to do is hold the set button down for 3 seconds at any time until you hear it beep, then push once more for confirmation. You don't have to cycle through all the functions on the display to get to the sport mode selection.

Yes it will remove the speed limiter, but you are not going to see significant gains unless you do further modifications. Removing the limiter alone may only give you 1-2 MPH more.
If you are interested, search the net for RXT-X Stage 1, 2, and 3 upgrades.

Just a question ...
Have you guys ever put a portable GPS in your storage bin and got a reading of how fast the RXT is? I'm just right curious as to what these do on the water. There was some newer seadoo "sport" skis that cooked by me on the bay this past weekend while i was in the speedster... I was doing at least 45mph.

The speedometers in the new high end skis are already clocked via built in GPS, so no need to bring your own. My RXT-X will hit 70 MPH.

My 2010 RXT 215 will hit 65 according to the built in GPS.
I hit 72 on my RXT. Half a tank of gas and I weigh 165... My slow ski hits 58 all day long but after that it is hard to get much more out of her..

GPS works off of satellites and you need connections to 4 different satellites to accurately do positioning and calculate speed. Sometimes you cannot get 4 good signals and therefore, your seadoo will revert to its "best estimate" on your speed. There is a light on the dash that will light up when you have a good GPS signal. I have only see my light go off once, and it was only for a minute or two.
Also, there is no speed sensor that I can see mounted in the "usual" place on my RXT-X. I take it you mean "usual" to be the pump area.
Both my skis are stock with no modifications of any kind..

Yes, that is stock. My ski will run 69 MPH steadily. I normally cannot stay at 70 for too long as the RPMs will cut back just a hair and drop me back to 69. Engine is running right around 7850-7900 RPMs.

Speed sensors
There is no speed sensor on the back of the S3 hulls but there is on the previous versions.... I own both 2008 RXT-X and a 2010 S3 hull RXT-X. I recommend replacing the stock glove box lid on the pre-2010 ski's with one that holds a Garmin. Tight fit, looks sweet. The speed off of the old speed sensors is not accurate. Hear people say their mid aged RXT's will do 70 but I just leave them behind.
My stock '08 hits 70 on glass with under a half tank of gas and my stock '10 hits 68 in the same conditions. I'm a big dude ... these ski's haul.

Which Garmin is it? I bought a 2010 and it has the cutout for the GPS..
The dealer seems to NOT know the correct model... HMM

Garmin 76csx. Just got mine the other day. I ordered the glovebox that fits it too. There is a separate glovebox for various models and years but you should be able to buy one for all years/models.
Like this.

Do SeaDoo's have speed limiters? I did not know that.
What would be the limit of the 2011 GTX260is Limited
