Normand, I have a little over a 120 hours on the Suzuki and it runs great. I have put a set of amph floats on it and found that I needed more hp with the hot weather. So I have turned the hp up from 106 to 115 hp but have not had a chance to try it. The motor is about 20 lbs more with everything on then a Rotax. Hp makes heat so the motor runs about 210 to 220 on a hot day. The intercooler was a problem but I now have that working with some cowling changes. Thats about all I have for problems. This Suzuki is a lot lighter then the car motors. When I get time I will update my pape with some of new things I have done to the bird. Al
