No matter weather you believe me or not it doesn't matter as i was just telling the truth about the two engines on the same boat and how they preformed, and sorry to say but the honda come out on top hands down...... So if you are after actuall facts the Honda 150 preformed better then the Zuke.

    I thought it was 10%? Eg Yammie F150 =165 hp at full noise which = +10% and Suzi 140 hp = 128 hp @ 6000 rpm which = almost -10%.
    Both can still be sold under their quoted hp brackets quite legitimately.

    Can you post up the dyno reports for both engines? Where did you get those ratings?

    Me Thinks you might be fond of the odd Red Bull there Garry TIC

    Love me Honda 135, suits me just fine, I've used yammies, evinrude and Johnsons, they are nowhere near the Honda, but thats me.

    Either way Suzuki or Honda I think you'll do alright, just gt it propped right!!!
