THE POWER DYNAMIC
Inspired by the legendary Ninja ZX-14R motorcycle, the engine is adapted for personal watercraft use with durable, lightweight chrome composite-plated cylinders.
SUPERCHARGED ENGINE
The digital fuel injection DOHC, 1,498cc, inline four-cylinder engine of the Kawasaki Jet Ski® Ultra® 310 Series watercraft is the undisputed king. Inspired by the legendary Ninja® ZX-14R motorcycle, the engine is adapted for personal watercraft use with durable, lightweight chrome composite-plated cylinders. The high-tech Eaton Twin Vortices Series (TVS) supercharger boosts the compact powerhouse, delivering a thrilling experience sure to ignite your senses. The sound and feel as the engine hits max boost pressure leaves no question as to why the Jet Ski Ultra 310 Series sets the standard for power and acceleration on the water.
SUPERCHARGER
The TVS roots-type supercharger uses twin four-lobe rotors in conjunction with an intercooler to supply the Jet Ski Ultra 310 Series engine with an uninterrupted flow of cool, dense air for maximum performance gain. The TVS is a fixed-displacement design, meaning it produces large quantities of boost at all rpm, from idle to redline. It contributes to maximum torque and strong linear power delivery across the rev range that no other forced-induction system can match.
WATER-BOUND THRILL
With a 22.5-degree hull angle, allows the Jet Ski Ultra 310 Series to penetrate swells and waves with great efficiency and less shock.
HULL
The advanced deep-V hull design of the Jet Ski® Ultra® 310 Series personal watercraft is inspired by Kawasaki’s championship-winning race machines, with a 22.5-degree hull angle that allows the Jet Ski Ultra 310 Series to penetrate swells and waves with great efficiency and less shock. Tuned sponsons provide straight-line stability and tighter performance in turns. The hull is also conveniently equipped with a retractable re-boarding step as well as two separate flush ports for the engine and intercooler.
KAWASAKI SPLASH DEFLECTOR
Minimize spray at speed or in rough water with the Kawasaki Splash Deflector (KSD). Standard on every Jet Ski Ultra 310 Series watercraft, the four KSD ridges located across the bottom of the bow help keep you and your passengers comfortable so you can enjoy the ride.
PROPULSION SYSTEM
The Direct Drive Axial Flow Pump houses a high-performance 160mm stainless steel impeller that efficiently converts the power of the Jet Ski Ultra 310 Series engine into a breathtaking 1,890 pounds of forward thrust. The leading-edge shape of the impeller helps provide incredible acceleration, while the highly efficient intake grate helps maintain a steady flow of water to the impeller to minimize cavitation.
ELITE BY DESIGN

Adjust the ETC right from the handlebar through a stepless range of plus or minus eight degrees.
ELECTRIC TRIM-CONTROL
Electric Trim-Control system (ETC), standard on every Jet Ski® Ultra® 310 Series personal watercraft, is an advanced feature that allows the rider to adjust handling characteristics. The ETC controls the angle of the jet pump nozzle to adjust the hull attitude for specific water surface conditions or riding style. Adjust the ETC right from the handlebar through a stepless range of plus or minus eight degrees, raising hull attitude for improved rough-water handling or lowering for increased turning performance.
ELECTRONIC RIDING MODES
The Electronic Throttle Valve (ETV) is controlled by the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) of the Jet Ski Ultra 310 Series watercraft and allows multiple riding modes to be activated through the convenient push of a button. Easily cruise through no-wake zones with one-touch 5 mph mode, while Fuel Economy Assistance mode optimizes fuel efficiency. The key-activated Smart Learning Operation (SLO) mode reduces engine power and top speed, enabling riders to gain experience with handling and maneuvering before experiencing the full power of the Jet Ski Ultra 310 Series’ engine.
ELECTRONIC CRUISE CONTROL
For steady cruising on the water, enjoy the convenient luxury of the Electronic Cruise Control system, a standard feature on every Jet Ski Ultra 310 Series watercraft. Set your speed with a push of a button and enjoy the ride!
KAWASAKI SMART STEERING®
The Kawasaki Smart Steering® system assists operator’s handling by simultaneously monitoring the steering input and the engine speed. The system offers assistance when the throttle is released from high speed and a turn is initiated. This feature will be appreciated by all riders.
EXHILARATION MADE EASY
Shaped and positioned for comfort, it facilitates positive grip during the ride or while boarding.
FUEL CAPACITY
Class-leading 20.6-gallon fuel capacity of the Jet Ski® Ultra® 310 Series personal watercraft gives you the substantial range to take on extra miles of coastline. Monitor fuel consumption on the digital LCD screen, where an ECO indicator will also let you know when you’re riding in the most efficient range—so you can savor every mile.
ALL-DIGITAL INSTRUMENTATION
The all-in-one digital LCD screen on the Jet Ski Ultra 310 Series is easy to read and displays multiple functions such as speedometer, tachometer, clock, trip distance, trip time, fuel level and hour meter. Keep an eye on external water and air temperatures, fuel consumption, boost meter, riding modes and warning lights, as well.
PASSENGER HANDRAIL
Comfortably accommodate up to three adults on the Jet Ski Ultra 310 Series watercraft and offer passengers a secure ride with an easy-to-hold handrail. Shaped and positioned for comfort, it facilitates positive grip during the ride or while boarding.
STORAGE
