Re: JB 140 Johnson fuel injected 4 stroke
"The Suzis are leading the way in light weight, EFI 4 stroke outboards."<br /><br />I guess that's why you see a Suzuki dealer on every street corner, and parts and service are a breeze?
<br /><br />Seriously, you must be talking about only one particular Suzuki model here...the DF 140. Because Suzuki really packs on the lbs for EFI in their other models!<br /><br />Check out who's leading the "light weight 4-stroke EFI's". I'll throw in some non-EFI's for fun.<br /><br />
225 hp class<br /><br />
Yamaha F225 = 583 lbs<br />Merc EFI4 225 = 583 lbs<br />Honda BF225 = 588 lbs<br />Suzuki........????<br /><br />
200 hp class<br /><br />
Yamaha F200 = 583 lbs<br />Honda BF200 = 588 lbs<br />Suzuki........????<br />Merc..........????<br /><br />
115 hp class<br /><br />
Merc EFI4 115 = 386 lbs.<br />Yamaha F115 = 400 lbs.<br />Susuki DF115 = 416 lbs<br />Honda BF115 = 496 lbs.<br /><br />
60 hp class<br /><br />
Merc EFI4 60 = 248 lbs<br />Suzuki DF 60 = 359 lbs!<br />Yamaha (non EFI) F60 = 244 lbs<br /><br />
50 hp class<br /><br />
Suzuki DF 50 (a 3-cyl) = 243 lbs<br />Merc EFI4 50 (a 4-cyl) = 248 lbs<br />Honda BF50 (3 cyl, non efi) = 198 lbs<br />Yamaha F50 (a 4 cyl, non efi) = 233 lbs<br /><br />
40 hp class<br /><br />
Merc EFI4 40 = 216 lbs<br />Suzuki DF40 = 243 lbs<br />Yamaha F40 (non efi) = 181 lbs<br />Honda BF 40 (non efi) = 198 lbs<br /><br />
30 hp class<br /><br />
Merc EFI4 30 = 216 lbs<br />Honda BF30 (non-efi) = 152 lbs<br />Yamaha F30 (non-efi) = 198 lbs<br />Suzuki DF 30 (non-efi) = 212 lbs<br /><br />Suzuki's are great and I'll give JB credit for the DF140. But it doesn't look like Suzuki is leading light weight 4-stroke EFI's more than anyone else.
