Kawasaki made some of the tunnel boring machines that excavated the Channel Tunnel an'all. Their jet-ski's are piss poor however, compared to Bombardier SeaDoo (awesome Rotax engine) and even Honda's new 4 stroke ski.

Fair cop with the avatar, Robbo - it does look a bit 'plastic shrouded'. Apparently there's a 350ci LT1 under there somewhere. I'll swap it for a more flattering shot (I know how you admire these cars so).
If your interested in a Jetski a mate of mine has a Yamaha Wave Raider inc. trailer for sale. It's up in Bradford, but worth going and fetching. He only wants 3 1/2 grand for it and you can water ski off the back of it. It's a proper beast.

Hate to admit this out in the open - But i am coming out -

I quite like the C5 and the  racing C5R , looked better in Yellow . Makes great power.

But..

My verdict is out regarding the handling  , until i have driven one.

I didn't realise Sinclair bought out a racing version of the C5. And I only ever saw them in white!!   Grin

They were a nightmare!

It was at the time that I was running a courier business down in Holland Park and you just couldn't see the little blighters. They would hug a line of parked cars and because they were below the roofline, didn't get to see them until the very last knockings.

Was tempted to get a batch of C5 stickers made a la WWII planes and have one put on each of the vans/cars/bikes when they had a close call!! I would have had about 40.

An old neighbour of mine actually bought one of those, and I sat in it, once, out of curiosity...............I've never felt so unsafe in my life. Shocked  How there wern't loads of fatalities I'll never know.

Probably because, like you, they were scared sh*tless of using it on the road so they all ended up in the back of peoples garages.
