[QUOTE="Stumpalump, post: 436421, member: 13140"] The 8 Honda is so nice and smooth. It's quiet and sips gas. The two stroke is a little screamer in comparison. It will fly. If you don't like it then they resell easy. I just sold a johnson 6. Got 10 calls in a few days. First guy with cash got a nice motor. The 9.9 is just as nice. My old Honda 7.5 had a screen over the carb. I removed it and it ran a bit faster. They are sensitive to prop pitch as well so if you don't like the 9.9 for its crudeness you can tweek the Honda to max it out. I love Hondas and I love small OMC as well but they are different. If you are not running in the 20kph range then swap props for a lower pitch. Hondas can rev. [/QUOTE]
