I tore up my aluminum prop on my 1983 Suzuki DT50.

The hub is stamped 11 X 17, I understand this to be 11 Dia. X 17 pitch, is this correct?

I am well pleased with this prop size, I do not have a Tach on this boat and the old prop is damage to a point where I can?t perform an RPM test to determine what optional size might work best.

Can anyone recommend a site/ location/ vendor where I might find an SS prop that will work on this motor?

Thanks for any and all advice.

Re: Looking To Locate A Suzuki Prop

There are a number of prop finders on the net. I think I would start with another 11 X 17 aluminum preferably same brand. Get something like a
tiny tach, test your max rpm and speed by gps.With your boar size,type your max rpm and speed and the prop finder info you may be able to select a prop.Any prop change is a bit of a crap shoot going al to ss injects more variables.You might check if there is a Hustler turning point prop for your motor.An aluminum prop that delivers close to ss performance at aluminum prices.Let us know what you find,you may be able to fine tune your setup and gain a couple of mph at no cost.
