Them things are pretty sweet, you just thought you got good economy out of that MERC. Be careful not to tear up the starter though, always look at the tach before you hit the keyswitch. Quite a few people have ground the starter teeth down by hitting the starter when it's running cause them things are so quiet. Just make sure your bracket is bolted on tight though, that is one heavy SOB compared to a 2 stroker.

Actual weight is closer to 650-670 pounds on that YAMAHA MJ. YAMAHA weighed them without a prop, oil or any accesories on it.

I think he was doing more than kissing that thing. That motor was violated!
