    Runs good even at 1/3 throttle. Full throttle really going to blow your hat around....

    Yeah, I can't believe how quiet it runs. Kind of scared once we get it broken in a run wide open.

    Be careful. Don’t have to run it wide open.

    Doesn't hurt them to turn up. They have rev limiters to prevent then from over reving

    hehe! Had it wide open for 50 seconds yesterday. Man, It runs! I think the power starts to drops off on the rpm curve above 3/4 throttle, but you still wring a little more speed out of it. Had it up to 26 mph at 3/4 throttle/ The wind howled like crazy, so I could run wide open for more that a few seconds before some blast liked to blow me into the water. Cold out yesterday. In that 7 hour part of the break-in. Will be running at about 3/4 throttle or less most of the time with brief run at full throttle about one minute for every ten minutes.
