Pro-Tec Yamaha FX-1 701 extended ride plate
The research and development engineers at Pro-Tec
have spent countless hours testing various ride plate designs for the Yamaha
FX-1 701 stand up hull while developing our extended ride plate. To improve the
performance of the Yamaha FX-1 701, Pro-Tec considers the many dynamics of
water flow across the bottom of the hull and ride plate to produce the best
possible extended ride plate available. Ride plate length, shape, lift and fit
are all necessary for proper function and optimum performance from a ride plate.
FX-1 Ride Plate Advantages
The Pro-Tec
Yamaha FX-1 701 extended ride plate will improve handling, improve acceleration
and reduce porpoising without sacrificing top speed. Handling and porpoising
are improved by the additional lift created by the extended length to keep the
bow of the hull planted in the water. Planting the bow of the hull into the
water provides better and more precise cornering allowing you to go faster
through the corners resulting in lower lap times and more success on the race
course. Better handling also reduces fatigue allowing you to go faster for a
longer period of time. It doesn’t matter if you are a professional racer,
amateur free rider or weekend recreational rider, a Pro-Tec FX-1 701 extended ride plate will improve the performance of your boat and increase the fun
factor for you.
Ride Plate Manufacturing Process
All Pro-Tec extended ride plates are cast from A319
aluminum and heat treated for maximum strength. The 11-119A FX-1 701 extended ride plate is powder coated silver. Powder coating the ride plate provides
corrosion protection and a long lasting professional finish.
FX-1 Ride Plate & Intake Grate Combo = Best Possible Handling & Performance
For the ultimate in performance it is recommended to
use a Pro-Tec extended ride plate and Moflow intake grate (Part # 11-219MA)
together. This combination will improve handling, reduce porpoising, improve
acceleration, reduce jet pump cavitation and improve rough water hook up.
Pro-Tec Products Used By The Best Riders In The World
The Pro-Tec FX-1 701 extended ride plate and Moflow intake grate have been used by Chris MacClugage to win multiple National Slalom
Championships and World Slalom Championships. Some of the riders who have also
used the Pro-Tec FX-1 701 ride plate and Moflow intake grate are Joe Kenney,
Randy Laine, Taylor Curtis, Victor Sheldon, Brent Flambures, Rob Flores, Mike
Yellich, Tera Laho, Jim Goodchild, Lisa Barsby, Ricky Sneddon, Topher Baretto,
Paul Del Rosario and many others.
Ride Plate Available Models
Pro-Tec extended ride plates are available for many
other Yamaha personal watercraft and offer the same performance benefits as our
FX-1 701 ride plate. Pro-Tec Yamaha extended ride plates are available for the
following models of Yamaha Wave Runners. Pro-Tec extended ride plates are

Trust The Parts That Are Trusted By The Pros
If you have never used a Pro-Tec product in the past
rest assured that we take every precaution to make sure that every item we
manufacture meets or exceeds the performance of the original equipment part you
are replacing. We do not make “generic” one type fits all products. Every item
that we develop is developed and tested on the specific model it was designed
for. During our testing we set specific parameters that must be met or exceeded
before we bring an item to market. If the item we are developing does not meet
our specific parameters that item will be scrapped and we move on to the next
item. Once we have developed and item that meets our standards we will do a
small production run so we can re-test a production unit. Once the production
unit is tested and verified that it meets our performance standards then and
only then will we bring it to market so you can enjoy the rewards of our hard work
and dedication to improving the performance of your Yamaha personal watercraft.
