Yamaha EX Sport for sale: Specifications

Figures can change a little between model years, so the paperwork that comes with the ski is the final word. The maker keeps the current specs on its Yamaha WaveRunners if you want to compare models.

Trim and Equipment on the Yamaha EX Sport for sale

The EX Sport is the simplest and most affordable EX. It skips the extras and gives you the reliable TR-1 engine and the light EX hull at the lowest price.

The TR-1 Engine Behind the Yamaha EX Sport for sale

The EX series uses Yamaha’s TR-1, a 1,049 cc three cylinder four stroke. It is light, compact and very reliable, and it gives a small ski like the EX good acceleration without high running costs.

The hull is about 124 inches long and 44.5 inches wide, with seating for up to three. A 144 mm high pressure pump turns the engine’s power into thrust. It is one of the reasons we keep the Yamaha EX Sport for sale in stock.

Yamaha built the EX range to make WaveRunner ownership affordable. It is the ski many families start with.

How the Yamaha EX Sport for sale Rides

The Yamaha EX Sport for sale is light and nimble. It turns easily and is not intimidating for new riders.

It is quick enough for fun and calm enough for kids riding with a parent. You get all of that with the Yamaha EX Sport for sale.

EX Sport, EX Deluxe or EX Limited?

The EX Sport is the simple base model. The EX Deluxe adds RiDE, Yamaha’s dual throttle system that gives you forward, neutral and reverse with the handlebar levers, plus a reboarding step. The EX Limited adds a premium seat, a cover and more trim.

All three share the same TR-1 engine and hull. Ask us if you want photos of the Yamaha EX Sport for sale before it ships.

Who Buys the Yamaha EX Sport for sale From Us

Most of our buyers are private owners who want a new ski at a clear price without the usual showroom games. After them come rental companies, resorts and tour operators adding to their fleets, and dealers who need stock. What they all want is the same: the right model, proper paperwork and a ski that arrives in one piece.

What Ownership Is Really Like

Owning a jet ski is mostly about using it. The work is small: a flush after each ride, a rinse, a check of the intake and a cover. Once a year it needs a proper service. Most owners say the hardest part is deciding who gets the first ride.

Your First Rides on the Yamaha EX Sport for sale

Take the first rides somewhere quiet. Get used to the throttle, the steering and, if fitted, the brake and reverse lever. Remember a jet ski needs throttle to steer. If you let off completely, it goes straight. Practise slow turns, docking and coming alongside a jetty before you go fast or carry passengers.

Taking People With You

A loaded ski handles differently. It takes longer to stop, leans more in turns and needs more throttle to get going. Ride smoother with passengers, give them a heads up before changes in speed and never exceed the rated capacity. We are happy to answer questions about the Yamaha EX Sport for sale by email or chat.

A Two Minute Check Before Every Ride

Look in the engine bay for loose hoses, fuel smell or water. Check the fuel level and the battery. Make sure the intake grate is clear and the drain plugs are in. Attach the lanyard, check the steering moves freely and tell someone where you are going. It takes two minutes and catches most problems before they spoil a day.

Coming Alongside a Jetty

Most bumps happen at walking pace. Approach slowly, aim a little upwind or upstream of where you want to stop and let the drift bring you in. A fender on the side you are docking on saves the hull. Practise a few times on a quiet day and it soon becomes easy. The Yamaha EX Sport for sale handles this well.

Reading the Weather

Check the forecast before every ride, especially wind. A lake that is glassy at nine in the morning can be choppy by two. On the coast, watch for offshore winds that make it hard to get back. If the weather turns, head in early. Nobody ever regretted coming back half an hour sooner.

Early and Late Season Riding

Spring and autumn can be the best riding of the year, with quiet water and fewer people. The water is colder though, so dress for a fall, carry a phone in a dry bag and keep to familiar places. This is where the Yamaha EX Sport for sale earns its keep.

The First Hours

New engines like variety. For the first few hours keep changing speed and do not hold the Yamaha EX Sport for sale flat out for long. After the break-in period in the manual, book the first service. Fresh oil and a once over by a mechanic set the ski up for the years ahead.

Keeping the Yamaha EX Sport for sale in Good Shape

A simple routine keeps a ski reliable:

• After each ride: flush, rinse, dry and cover.
• Every month: check the battery, intake grate and fuel lines.
• Every season or at the service interval: oil, filter, plugs if listed, and an impeller check.
• Before storage: stabilise fuel, fog or prepare the engine as the manual says, and charge the battery.

Keep a simple log of hours and services. It helps resale and warranty.

Looking After the Jet Pump

There is no propeller on a jet ski. Water is drawn through a grate under the hull, pushed by an impeller and squirted out the back. Sand, gravel and weed are the enemies. Avoid running in very shallow water, and if the ski starts to rev without pulling, check the intake grate first. A worn impeller or wear ring will also make the ski feel slow, and both are normal service parts. Plenty of buyers message us before ordering the Yamaha EX Sport for sale, and we like that.

Fuel Use and Running Costs

The TR-1 runs on regular unleaded and is very economical. The 13.2 gallon tank lasts a long session on such an efficient engine.

Fuel use depends on how you ride. Cruising at a steady speed is far cheaper than running flat out. Parts and servicing for big brands are easy to find in most countries, which keeps long term costs sensible. Keep that in mind with the Yamaha EX Sport for sale.

Salt Water Care

Salt is hard on any machine. After every salt ride, flush the engine through the flush port, rinse the hull, pump and trailer, and dry the engine bay. A spray of corrosion inhibitor under the seat now and then helps a lot. Do not leave the ski sitting in salt water for days if you can avoid it.

Keeping the Hull and Seat Looking New

Rinse the hull after every ride and wipe off water spots. A coat of marine wax a few times a season keeps the finish bright and makes cleaning easier. Use a vinyl protectant on the seat to stop it cracking in the sun. If the ski lives on a lift or trailer outside, a fitted cover is the best money you will spend. That applies to the Yamaha EX Sport for sale as much as any ski.

Battery Tips

Most no start problems on jet skis come down to a flat battery. If the ski will sit for more than a week or two, connect a smart charger or disconnect the battery. Keep the terminals clean and tight. Audio systems and displays draw power, so do not play music for hours with the engine off.

Using the Tech

Spend ten minutes with the manual learning the display, modes and alerts. Many owners never use features they paid for, like slow speed modes or fuel economy readouts. Knowing them makes riding easier and helps you spot problems early. Many repeat customers come back for a second Yamaha EX Sport for sale.

Trailering and Launching

A good trailer with properly set bunks protects the hull. Strap the ski down at the bow and stern, and check the straps after the first few kilometres. At the ramp, back in until the ski floats, start it once it is in the water and never run it on the trailer. When you pull out, drain the bilge and rinse the trailer if you were in salt.

Storage Between Seasons

For winter or long breaks, top up the tank with stabilised fuel, run it through, change the oil, prepare the engine as the manual describes and keep the battery on a maintainer. Store the ski under cover with the seat slightly open for air flow. The Yamaha EX Sport for sale is covered here too.

Keeping It Secure

Jet skis are easy to tow away, so lock the trailer hitch and use a wheel clamp if the ski sits outside. Take the key or lanyard with you. Note the hull identification number and keep photos of the ski. Many owners also fit a small GPS tracker for peace of mind.

Ride Safe

Life jackets for everyone, the lanyard always attached, and eyes open. Jet skis are fast and quiet, and other water users may not see or hear you. Never ride after drinking, avoid riding at night unless the ski and local rules allow it, and always watch your speed near beaches and marinas. It is worth remembering when you ride the Yamaha EX Sport for sale.

Check the Rules Where You Ride

Every country has its own rules for personal watercraft. You may need registration, a licence, insurance or to stay out of certain zones. Find out before your first ride, and keep the papers on board or in your car. The Personal Watercraft Industry Association also shares general riding and safety advice at pwia.org.

Insurance and Registration

In many countries a jet ski must be registered and insured before you ride. Even where it is not required, insurance is worth it for theft, damage and liability. Your insurer will usually want the hull number, the purchase invoice and photos. We supply the documents you need. That is a big part of why people choose the Yamaha EX Sport for sale.

Towing Tubes and Skiers

If you plan to tow, check your local rules first. Many places require a spotter or a three seat ski. Use a proper tow rope, start slowly and agree on hand signals with the person being towed. Turn wide and smooth, and keep well away from other boats and the shore.

Common Problems and Quick Checks

Will not start. Check the lanyard is attached, the battery is charged and the kill switch is reset. Owners of the Yamaha EX Sport for sale tell us the same thing.

Revs but no speed. Something is probably caught in the intake grate. Stop the engine and clear it.

Overheat warning. Stop, check the intake for weed and flush the cooling system when you are back. It is one of the reasons we keep the Yamaha EX Sport for sale in stock.

Bilge water. A little is normal. A lot means a check of hoses and seals is due.

Warning light. Slow down, read the display message and check the manual before carrying on. You get all of that with the Yamaha EX Sport for sale.

Avoid These Common Errors

The most common problems we hear about are self inflicted: sand in the pump from shallow water, corrosion from skipping the flush, flat batteries from long storage and riders forgetting that a jet ski needs throttle to turn. A little care avoids all of them.

The First Year

Year one is easy if you keep to a routine. Follow the break-in, get the first service on time, flush after every ride and check the intake regularly. Before winter or a long break, store it properly. The ski will reward you with trouble free seasons. Ask us if you want photos of the Yamaha EX Sport for sale before it ships.

What to Add on Day One

Most people start with a cover, a trailer, life jackets, a tow rope and a dry bag. After a few rides you will know what else you want. We can include accessories in the same shipment to save on freight.

Jet Ski or Small Boat?

A jet ski costs less to buy, less to run and is far easier to launch, tow and store than a boat. It goes where boats cannot, like shallow bays and narrow channels. A boat carries more people and gear and offers shelter. For one to three people who want fun and freedom, a jet ski is hard to beat.

Thinking Ahead to Resale

A well kept ski from a major maker is easy to sell later. The things buyers ask for are simple: service history, low hours for its age, no hull damage and a clean engine bay. Look after those and you will get a fair price when you move on.

For Rental and Tour Operators

If you run a rental or tour business, tell us how many skis you need and how they will be used. We can quote multiple units, match colours and help you plan servicing. Commercial use can change warranty terms, so we will explain what applies before you order.
