| I have an 04 1850 DC with a Honda 135. If you can max it, then max it. I avg 41-42 on the GPS. What are your priorities?
oil or no oil?
sound?
Speed?
fumes?
I went with the Honda (4S) because I never have to worry about oil, its dead quiet, and it fires up instantly every single time. I know the Yamaha makes a bulletproof 115 that has quite the reputation. Apparently the new Merc 4 strokes have been getting great reviews.
Optimax is very proven as well. Again, you have to deal with oil, noise, and smoke, but they are very proven and very efficient.
I will add that the Honda 115, 135, and 150 are the same engine.
135 - variable intake
150 - vtec | |
