2011 Honda 200

[Fergus3060]

Good afternoon, I'm looking at a boat that has a 2011 Honda 200 4-stroke on the back, with about 500 hours use. Just curious as to what the ribnet community thinks of these engines, any common issues, cost of servicing and parts etc etc.

I have a 225 from 2004; no problems so far. Just be careful, when you back off with the trottle, with the backwave. It can slam into the Honda and the water can enter your exhaust, thus destroying the lambda probe.
Common problem with these engines; a modifaction of the exhausts is possible.
