The Watercraft Journal partnered with Unlimited PWC and JD’s WaterWorld to equip the latest generation Kawasaki Ultra 310 LX-S JetSki with Unlimited’s full catalog of components and add-ons. Our exclusive build series stretches across four videos, and features step-by-step installation tutorials with an exclusive look at each Unlimited component installed on our JetSki
For the final stage of our build (link goes here), we install green anodized Unlimited PWC Full Billet X-Sponsons and Unlimited Billet 3-Hole washers in silver. These are the only color-matched anodized billet sponsons available on the market today for the Kawasaki Ultra 160/310 Jet Skis! The sponsons come in six different colors including green, red, silver, black, and gold.
Custom colored anodized washers complement the high-end custom look while allowing riders to take advantage of 12 unique sponson positions, which includes 3 up and down positions and 4 forwards or backwards positions. The washers also are available in six different colors including green, red, silver, black, and gold.
Installation of the Billet X Sponsons only takes a few minutes with basic tools. We first unbolt the stock plastic sponsons, and remove the OEM hardware. We next mount our new anodized billet base using the Allen bolts included in the kit.
We then install silver Unlimited Billet 3-hole washers onto the sponson blade, and then mount the blade in the center hole using four button-head Allen bolts. We initially placed the blade directly in the center of the base, but after testing various configurations, moved the blade back to the 3/4 position.
For open ocean riding and high-speed tracking through chop and cross-wakes we found the sponsons to provide great results when kept in the center position, from top to bottom, and then biased slightly towards the rear of the JetSki. Once you find your ideal positioning, make sure to apply a small drop of blue Loctite to each of the bolts to ensure they don’t loosen.
