Need advice gtr 215 or rxp

[brandon32689]

Hey guys looking at getting back in the game, locall shop gave me a good deal on a gtr 215 2013 for 10k.

also I found locally a 2006 rxp black n gold for 4500 with only 12 hours but it's all stock I hear the washers will fail.


also I'd get a full 2 year warrinty going new and all the good sc parts.

anyone that has a gtr 215 how do u like it.

I've ridden a few gtr skis and they are bad ass water rockets..

06 rxp with that low of hrs could be a very bad deal... Skis dont like to sit unused..

Is there a reason for this, On Seadoos? other then Posibly Ethonal Gas being not good in a ski, just wanting to know of anything I should on low Hour Seadoo Four Strokes? thanks

Sitting around just gives everything a chance to corrode.

Moisture getting into the exhaust valves then the ski sits and then they can corrode.. you crank it and it runs great but for how long before that valve fails..
Also some people change out guages to make the ski appear like it has low hours when it doesn't.
I've seen quite a few low hour skis that the compression was off due to the owner not fogging the motor prior to storage. Valves and cylinders start to corrode.. these are water toys and water is there worst enemy..

Well ill we know this guy personally he's only took it out 2 times it ready to go but he prob has not done anything with the washers. So what's the better ride the gtr or the rxp

[brendanm]

Buy the gtr. Brand new, nothing to worry about, charger is good for 100 hours, has the good valves, has ibr. I can't think of any negatives.

How does the gtr compare in the water to a rxp handling wise

Did your friend fog the motor before it sat?
If not I bet there is corrosion inside the motor...
