2026 Kawasaki JET SKI ST 160X

2026 Kawasaki JET SKI ST 160X is a new personal watercraft (PWC) built for confident, sporty cruising with room for friends—and it’s available now at MotoMember in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania. Finished in a sharp Gray tone (Metallic Bluish Gray/Pearl Neon Yellow), this 3-passenger Jet Ski blends strong naturally aspirated power, smart rider aids, and practical storage for full days on the water.

The ST 160X is designed for riders who want a premium “do-it-all” platform: smooth acceleration for towing and touring, predictable handling for busy waterways, and comfort features that make long rides easy. With Kawasaki’s 1.5L inline-four and a feature-rich dash, it’s an ideal step-up for families, lake-house weekends, and anyone who wants a refined ride without giving up performance.
