Afraid I'm a bit of a long distance newby but I am entiring a new and exciting world.
As a 38 year old avowed adrenaline junkie who is having a sizable mid-life crisis, I have reached the conclusion that I can no longer bear to live in a city surrounded by water (Auckland) without tearing up as much of it as possible.
After quite a bit of research I have come to the following conclusions.
A. Buy New! They don't lose value in NZ at all
B. Buy mid-range! I have always regretted buying anything at entry level
C. I want it to scare me stupid for me BUT I want control, range, comfort and convenience when handling the "non-teenage" kids
All this has landed me on two specific models which I was planning to test out in the coming monthes.
1 - 2010 Sea-doo RXT-X 260RS with the fancy braking system, or
2 - 2010 Yamaha FX Cruiser SHO which looks gorgeous
So is this a sound conclusion? Have I missed something? Are 2011 models worth holding out for? Has anyone got either of these? Did you regret it? Has anyone tested both? How do they stack up side by side? What should I look out for when testing? I expect to be totally blown away by both!
