I do not know of that company. The upgraded versions have custom parts you will not find from any other company. We design the prop and various other components to optimise the 1.3-2.0hp range.

Sergio Ramirez it’s a toss up. If this is going on kayak, I would not add a traditional engine on the kayak. The lack of vertical height adjustment, prop choice, and overall customisation limits these engines. Email me and let’s try to figure out options for you. Suzuki years ago was solid, but as these engines get cheaper in quality the end result means gearbox leaks and poor performance over time. My preference is Honda on the 2.3hp. What are you trying to outfit? Maybe we can look at other Suzuki models.

Sergio Ramirez I like the fabricated bracket. 👍

There is a small rubber grommet at the bottom of the tube that keeps the 2 pieces spaced out, RTV around the drive tube as it is lowered into the gear box to seal out the water, and a double lipped seal in the upper gearbox to keep the shaft end lubricated. This also keeps the gearbox oil out of the drive tube.

These are all vertical shaft systems.

Yaroslav Chagovetz I use a custom 2 blade prop with a 4 stroke Honda. 2 stroke engines are not ideal for most applications. As far as speed, it is GPS measured. This is the only way I can see improvements in max speed and trolling speeds. I get 4.6-6.5mph depending on kayak weight and draft. The prop and rotational rpm is the limiting factor on the small hp engines. It can not maintain torque without a prop change.

Bob Han these are centrifugal clutch driven, not direct drive, so no reverse. I kind of not ever needed reverse, since I use a paddle in my fishing spot.

Bob Han ,how much does the two units cost. The gx35 and the kayak buddy’s leg.
