Just got a 22 vx cruiser ho, couldnt figure out why it wouldnt go past 56mph in high speed drive control. Didn't realize drive control had to be totally off, thank you!
Running into exactly the same issue with my 2022 vx cruiser ho also. And yes I turned on Drive Control thinking that's how I get max speed. Bummer she goes into storage on Monday for the season. I am excited to test her out in the spring.
thank you so much i was confused on why my 2022 gp1800r was only going 55 and then once i turned off restrictions it really opened it up going all the way to 67mph
thank you I was wondering why my Waverunner wasn't going very fast it's because I had it on the drive control appreciate the video now I'm going to take it off and see if it works
Thank you so much! I just broke in my new 2024 VX Cruiser HO and couldnt top 55mph and ~6500 RPMs or so. I can't wait to get back to the lake and turn drive control off so I can see this thing rip. Im not sure if i enabled drive control just browsing the menu settings, but i definitely stumbled across it and set it to high and normal. Youd think thatd be the best performance. Pretty terrible UI design!
BIG THANK YOU... I have a 2023 GP1800R SVHO... max rpm was 6000 amd max speed was 55mph... feels restricted... setting was in high speed ans normal... It was stage 1 plus... Now I know the problem... well explained ... Thank you so much... How do I disable the drive mode?
Hi, I have 2024 waverunner VX, with TR1 engine, now 16 hours on it. I don't have an option in the drive control for acceleration, only speed control. The reason I am watching your video is that, I am searching to find out, what is wrong with my VX. I can only get 48 miles/h (with drive control OFF) when water is completely flat and no wind. Moreover I can not switch in the drive control from "middle" to "speed". The factory speed should be 53 miles/h. It looks like it is stuck on 48m/h in my case, never more. Before I go to the dealer I would like to hear other owners opinion. Thank you.
When i go to the speed menu isnt showing me the Drive/Acceleration option. It just shows 2 options, Speed and Lock and if i click speed only shows Low and Medium 🤷♂️
Thanks for watching! I have another video on the channel showing the RAM mount I purchased for my GoPro. In the description of that video are links to the mount. Hopefully that helps!
i have a 22 GP1800 HO that won't go faster than 53. the dealer is telling me that is due to the ride control being on. i read the manual, and my understanding is if the ride control icon is white, the drive control is not active. when it is in yellow, it is active. even when i had the drive control in what i think is off with the DC icon in white, the ski still won't go more than low 50s. the dealer is telling me if the icon even shows up on the screen, the DC is on. could you clarify please? how fast will your VX HO go when completely unrestricted? thanks!
If your icons look like mine in the video that should confirm if drive control is active or not. Mine is only yellow when some form of control is active. With nothing active my unit will top out in the mid 50s. Would think you'd see more than that if your drive control isn't active.
This is the absolute best video I have watched of 2023!!! I’ve been stuck at 55 mph, for the first 12 hours on my ski. Now this baby goes almost 70

Because you have to break the engine in
Same I was tripping so I found this vid
@@jrceaser3466 engine was broken in according to the manual.

I was in low acceleration on my 2023 FX until I saw your video! Thank you!

How did u turn it off
where it says acceleration control is lit up yellow it’s turned on. and if it’s white lettering the that means the machine is fully unlocked
@@centralcal6604 it took me a while to understand what was going on
@@centralcal6604 you have to makes sure it’s white letters or else your jet ski will go slow like mine did

Best video I swear .. I got a 2024 and couldn’t get over 50 mph now I know why haha

How do I disable the drive mode?

Thank you.
How do you lock the drive control? I am unable to lock it with the PIN. Is there a specific PIN?
When i go to the speed menu isnt showing me the Drive/Acceleration option. It just shows 2 options, Speed and Lock and if i click speed only shows Low and Medium 🤷♂️
Any reason why I can’t move my drive control settings from “middle” to “speed” for a 2023 Yamaha wave runner?
just bought a new one my ok button and back button doesnt work any ideas
Nice breakdown
I wish the gp1800 had a Digital tachometer like yours yours
How do you get it out of drive control? So its not yellow?
Wow thank you for this video! Do you have a video on setting the pin?
Not yet but I'll be back up with the jet skis this weekend and will see if I can do a quick video on the topic, thanks for watching!
Just added a new video on engine Lock.

Hey bud, thanks for this video. I need to get one of thise gopro supports for my vx cruiser, how should i browse for that?
Thanks for watching! I have another video on the channel showing the RAM mount I purchased for my GoPro. In the description of that video are links to the mount. Hopefully that helps!
Poor programming design. Both settings should just have “off” as an option to avoid confusion for new owners. Thanks!
Is there cruise control?
Yes, I cover this in my overview video. th-cam.com/video/YxGUlMxt8lA/w-d-xo.html

i weigh 235 and i get my VX HO up to 65mpg if the water is flat.
I like your videos. This one no. Maybe reshoot it without the glare.
Did the best I could with the conditions I had that day.
@@tayloradventures can you redo the video also including which buttons you're pressing
Yas and maybe show what buttons hese pressing
How fast in unrestricted?
Roughly 34, 44, 54 (low, med, high)
@@tayloradventures I saw low Med and high how fast unrestricted though I know it’s in the 60s
@@justthisguy1948 sorry about that, I've topped out at 64 mph unrestricted
When u make a video and can't see screen you did nothing
Screen is sax I don't see anything
