Can’t be, you must be mistaken. Yammies don’t blow. Sorry for the luck man. I just had to

I'll give it this... It brought me over 25 miles back to the launch on 4 cylinders and didn't leave me stranded. When I saw the white smoke I knew I was fkd. It died as I coasted to the dock, no b/s.

I found a 13 250 vmax sho with 580 hours for 5k. Comes with 1 yr warranty. I like the idea of less oil consumption in the newer 4 strokes, but I have always had a soft spot for the 2 strokes


That’s not a bad deal on the 13’ 4 stroke. Did you check weights? That 4 stroke block weighs a decent amount more than the 2 stroke block. I want to say your in the 540 lbs range with the 225.

A 250 SHO is 505 lbs dry so not much different. The only reservations I would have about one of those are the ceramic lined cylinder walls. As far as I know if you lose a rod and mess up a cylinder the entire powerhead has to be replaced since there are no sleeves you can replace.

Damn that’s crazy, I figured the 4 stroke would weigh more than an old smoke stroke.

why I wont pay more than 1k for a bike. They are just too limited-use an item. I wont pay more than 2k for a 4-wheeled vehicle, either, and then only for a van, cause I can save that much every 2 years,by sleeping in it instead of in motel rooms. 

Have you seen the claim that gas is going to keep dropping in price, cause electric cars are going to take over, and gas cars are going to get cheaper and cheaper? the claim was by 2024. i say that they are fos and off by at least 5 years, probably never 


Huh?

And you can store your barrel of sand in the van for when you got to Pawn shops looking at guns.

i have a 2017 yamaha 250 sho with trp lower unit that i am selling. 3 hr on motor, nothing wrong with it. I just bought a boat that has this motor on it & I'm sponsored by merury, that is why i am selling it. motor has never been registered so buyer will have full factory warranty as the buyer will be the original owner. Digital gauges, cables, controls are all included. 21k if you are interested.

Who’s yall’s favorite Yamaha repair shop in southeast Louisiana? I’ve heard good things about Outcast Marine in Des Allemands. Need to bring mine in for sensor issues.

Should be a rocket w sho and make gas like a yeti makes ice.
Illusion will beat you to death with any chop over 6” but they will run shallow.

They do good work, also look up Joe Eskind or JJ Lirette on FB. Both are good Outboard Mechanics out of Houma area.
