STX PLATFORM: PERFORMANCE

• 160 PS NA Marine 1,498 cc In-Line Four Engine — Responsive and reliable, the normally aspirated, liquid-cooled 1,498 cc, in-line 4-cylinder marine engine balances its high performance with clean emissions, good fuel economy, and family-friendly power delivery.
• Select the Right Power — Riders can select from Full, Middle and Low Power Operation, as well as Smart Learning Operation (SLO)-Mode.
• Adjustable Electronic Cruise Control — Highly convenient for long-distance cruising, this mode fixes speed (rpm) at the level specified.

STX PLATFORM: HANDLING

• Compact STX Hull — The STX hull has been a mainstay in Kawasaki’s PWC lineup for many years, and for good reason.
• Enhanced Ride Comfort — The front bumper serves as a splash guard to both prevent water from contacting the rider when in motion, and to reduce the amount of water able to get into the foot wells for a more comfortable ride.
• Electric Trim Control

FLAGSHIP-LEVEL FEATURES

• 7” TFT Display — Large, easy-to-read 7” full-colour TFT instrumentation offers multiple display modes, jog-dial control, Bluetooth connectivity, and infotainment features.
• KSRD (Kawasaki Smart Reverse with Deceleration) — Kawasaki Smart Reverse with Deceleration electrically deploys the reverse bucket.
• Rearview Camera — A rearview camera mounted aft of the rear seat offers riders a supplemental rearward view behind the Jet Ski.
• Broader staging platform — On STX 160LX-S and 160LX models, an Extended Rear Deck—110 mm longer than the standard rear deck of the STX 160R—offers a broader staging platform for water play, and more room for stowing gear.
• 2-Speaker Audio System — An improved version of Kawasaki’s original PWC audio system, the JETSOUND audio system features two speakers, jog-dial control and Bluetooth connectivity.

HIGH-GRADE DESIGN

• Unique colourways — Highly distinct images were created for each model.
• Stand Out from the Crowd
• Kawasaki Emblem — With an emblem on the front similar in design to Kawasaki’s higher-end models, the view from the front is dynamic, eye-catching and inspires pride in ownership.
• Added Convenience — Built-in cleats (one on each side) provide convenient cinch points when mooring at a dock.

R-MODEL

• Sport-Type Handlebar
• Sport seating for Two — The R model’s seat is based on the LXury Seat, but with added support cushioning inspired by supersport motorcycles.
