Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Sea-Doo OEM Spark Manual Mechanical Reverse Kit (No iBR), 295100596 by Keith Desjarlais

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Manual reverse helps with docking, but kit installation is long and tedious

This manual reverse kit is exactly what I expected and as intended/expected on my 2015 Spark 2-UP HO Installed. The installation is quite complex and extensive and took me at least 8 hours in total, maybe a little more. Once installed, the lever requires some force to operate, especially when the machine is out of the water. It gets the job done and gives the Spark moderate reverse driving ability. The only downside to this manual reverse is that it slightly affects my Spark's top speed. Again this is a 2 UP HO model (aka 90hp) and I weigh 185lbs 6ft 2in; Before installing the manual reverse I was able to get the 50-51 mph shown on the speedometer (which is not considered 100% accurate), but after installing the manual reverse the top speed I can get is 48-49 Miles per hour. I don't care, Spark isn't a speed demon anyway.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Almost never
