Are the motors from the 4 cylinder yamaha snowmobiles and the 4 cylinder pwcs the same?

Posted on Apr 02, 2010 under snowmobile motor |

I am currently looking at a yamaha PWC (personal water craft) it is a 2008 yamaha FX cruiser. The snowmobile is a 2008 yamaha RX1. I was just wondering (since both of these motors are 4 cylinder and 4 stroke) if the motors are the same.
thanks in advance!
first off thank you for your answer and that is true of varoius vehichles. i am not wondering wether or not it will bolt in. I just know that the 4 cylinder yamaha is a great motor and was just wondering if the same motor would be in the PWC and therefore that would have the good motor.

Ya know thats a good question, because Yamaha, and countless other companys will use the same engine in several applications, and tend to keep using the same proven designs over and over again, so it wouldent suprise me to find out they were the same engine with a few mod’s. but keep in mind, a mod as in changing the position of a motor mount is as easy as a key stroke on a auto cad program and C&C machine, as in, is it the same engine? yes. will it bolt in? no.
