[QUOTE="kofkorn, post: 418778, member: 7076"] 20 yrs old, that's barely broken in :) As Pappy I'm sure can attest, the motor age has a very small effect on the performance. Unless you have a tired motor due to thousands of hours of use, most performance issues can be corrected with proper tuning. Tuning which should cost you far less than a new 4 stroke will run. If you troll continuously, or want a super quiet motor, go for the 4 stroke. If you want good get up, and top end, stay with your current motor and get it running right. The new 4 stroke will feel significantly slower than what you have now. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
