If that was wide open I would agreed but I still haven't ran it WOT, remember I'm still doing the break in on the powerhead. I've got another hour before I can run it out. So this weekend should tell all. I spoke to my local yammi dealer down here (who is also an old friend of mine) and he said the RPM range for that motor is 4500-5500, and he would feel comfortable with it anywhere above 5000. I'm personally hoping for 52-5300. We shall soon see....

How do you like that 140 Suzuki so far?
