Default Re: Honda or Ficht?

I'd go 2 stroke.. theres a reason that Honda is trading 500hour motors for new ones. I've heard that Bom is being bought buy the family that owns it now as a way to save the name and keep it in the family, It's all paper work... But the big thing I've heard about the 4 strokes is that, those times when you hit something or bump something can cause bigger problems other then a lower unit or prop hub. they have belts for timing chains(like cars) and that the belts will break when impact happens and you bend all of the valves [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img]
