Why does it matter? The better question is which is more reliable and easy to find/get service for.

Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn’t go so far as to call a dog filthy but they’re definitely dirty. But, a dog’s got personality. Personality goes a long way.

They all break. Suzuki warranty stinks. Just went through a horror show on a 250 blown head gasket under warranty. Yamaha stands behind motors better and parts are easier to get.

If you wanna go fast, you buy a Merc. If you want to get home, you buy a Yamaha!!!

Merc for speed 2 or 4 stroke.

on a 21 ft bay 150 yammie lighter puts out close to 165 hp mounted one on my 21 ft bay replacing a 2-stroke same top end 51mph on gps less weight better on fuel.
