Hi,<br /><br />As probably some of You know Suzuki are working on a DF150 and DF175 outboard that will be released later this year (sept 2005). I have not seen that much information on these two outboards but I read in a Swedish boat magazine about them. Just thought some of You are interested to know some about them.<br /><br />- DF 150 and DF175 is same base engine (like their DF90 and DF115 are) but they have different types of camshaft and software programing<br />- 2867 cc<br />- 211 kg/465 lb (Long shaft), 215 kg/474 lb (XL shaft)<br />- Idle 650 rpm<br />- Alternator 12 volt 44 Amp<br />- Gear ratio 2.50:1<br />- Variable Valve Timing (VVT), same as in their DF250<br />- Traditional controlbox (not like Verado type of electronic control box)<br />- Easier to service<br /><br />Pictures
