[QUOTE="archery68, post: 426770, member: 20113"] I sure liked my old two stroke I bought new in 04. It was a two cylinder Johnson 40/28. Had it on a 17/52 flat bottom. Had to sell out and in 2015 bought all new setup. 1852 with 60/40 mercury jet. So much more power than my40/28 had. Quieter, faster, easier on gas,no mixing gas, and it was lots cheaper than the two strokes you can buy today from other manufacturers. It won't quite run with the Johnson 60/40 two strokes from back in the day but is good enough for me. By myself with gear on the river it will hit 33 consistently downstream and 31 up. It starts easy and mine is the big tiller. Trim is right where you need it as well as forward and reverse. By far the most popular motor on the river I run the most which is the current river in Missouri. We have motor restriction of 40 hp and below the national park part of the river. They seem very dependable and don't hear many bad things about them. Now, I don't have any experience with an 07 model. So what I told you is for the newer ones. I just sold all my 2015 setup and now have all 2017 setup sitting in my shop that I have not had in the water. I had a buddy that had an 09 and he spoke highly of it. Not much help to you but my two cents. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
