I don't think you can decide til you see the Rude...like said, if it checks out, I'd take it for the extra ponies...20 more horses will feel a lot better under throttle, and CB's right...those 3 cyl motors have been beeing made for a LONG time now and proven to say the least...parts easily available and yada, yada, yada...I vote for the extra HP yer gonna get from the Rude...although I have to say, if the HP were equal, I'd pick the Yamaha...
