If I'm not mistaken, Kawasaki essentially invented the Jet Ski market and still owns the rights to the name "Jet Ski"? I know they were big in the performance side of Jet Skis. I've been around Lake Winnipesaukee in NH for 50+ years and when Jet Skis started, everyone had Kawasakis.

Just a wild guess, but I'd say there are now 5000+ PWC's on Lake Winnipesaukee and I don't think I've seen anything but a Yamaha or Sea-Doo, Every once in a while, I'll see an old classic advertised on FB or someplace like that.

I hardly ever see their motorcycles any more and I think they got out of the snowmobile business. I don't think they're in the Top 5 of the ATV business any longer?
