2001 Polaris Virage TXI Description
-
With its midnight-coloured cowling, the 2001 Virage
TXi from Polaris makes an aggressive statement. It may look mean, but
the ride is friendly.
Although the three-seater is based on last years Virage, a new design for 2000, its whats inside that sets it apart. The TXi is toting FICHT direct fuel injection, but its not the same system you found in the Polaris PWC last season. The new year has brought the addition of a Ram-injection delivery system that helps reduce emissions even further, while improving fuel economy. With such a saving in fuel consumption, imagine how far the 64-litre capacity will take you.
Also new on the TXi are an updated injector design and a better throttle position sensor. The changes have created an injector thats more durable
than ever.
The 135-hp, three-cylinder engine is the same powerplant used in last years Genesis and Virage TX models, but TXi
differs in its power delivery. The fuel-injected craft has a linear power manifold for greater ability to handle the rigours of towing. A special tuned pipe pumps up the mid-range power, but with the Polaris Low Accoustic Noise Exhaust Technology (PLANET) system, youll never hear the difference.
Another nice touch is the Electric Reverse Control. Its handy for picking up fallen skiers, or while docking. When on the go, though, its the 28-inch sponsons that make all the difference, plus the specially designed BAT ride plate. They help keep the Virage TXi on track, even with an adult being pulled behind. The full V-hull makes the ride soft and stable. Team it with the newly design-ed seat, and you have a PWC that treats your tush just right.
All this and a machine that guards itself using a programmable theft deterrent system. With all of its goodies and retro colour scheme, the Virage TXi is sure to remind you that youre never too old to have some fun.
