Kawa Ultra 300 or RXT 265?

[frankcottnj]

I'm a seadoo guy but really like the Kawa Ultra 300. I see on the youtube the magazine reports rate the RXT good but the riders show the Ultra blowing away the RXT easily. If I do go with an RXT, what is needed and how much $ to get it to be close to the Kawasaki 300? I am close to buying. I also like the RXT uses much less fule but the 300 has a lot of storage. Any feedback please?

I run an old-n-slo '05 rxt. Haven't spent 2K in mods. Yes...a 300 will out pull me from the get go....but I will catch him soon enough and then walk on by (on anything under 2' chop). Heavier chop and he'll keep that early lead and then extend. Now...do a few more mods to the ultra and it's a different ball game....for me. Better equipped rxt...or an rxp-x/t-x and then the ultra has work to do.

The ultra has the better rough water hull. The new S3 hull are real close.

I hate the Ultra's seat. Beware fuel in oil issues.....couple other things......too...can't remember....pulley?...ecu?...can't remember.
