We have a Yamaha 90A on the back of our boat. With 79-odd hours on the thing, I suspect that we'll be using it - and "raising eyebrows" - for many years yet. ;) I've had people tell me "Mate, get rid of it and get a 4 stroke!" The change-over price is eye-watering...and buys a LOT of fuel. No thanks.
But all the major bike makers are going strong back into 2T dirt bikes, don’t forget chainsaws, trimmers, etc, etc, etc. Bullsh1t politics at its finest.
@@terryturner3682 That's because the use oil in the fuel... but that is not actually something that they absolutely must do it would be entirely possible to design an outboard motor that has oil in the crankcase and does not require constant oiling. Also designing an opposed piston 2 stroke outboard would be even better.... increased efficiency power and torque beyond any of the current offerings.
This only recently happened in Australia? In Norway, sale of 2 stroke outboards with carburetors have been banned since 2006. The engines on the used market are getting old.
We all know these engines got phased out just cause companies were losing money... Why would they leave an engine we can fix ourselves on the market? Heck no!!
Evinrude still makes 2 strokes but, have less emissions than some 4 strokes because it has a gasoline direct injection system called E-Tec. The sell and importation bans only applies to carbureted 2 strokes.
Nah, they will be worth only as much as people will pay - and that will be strictly according to condition. So if you keep it brand new on a stand it could indeed get near current new price (at best) in a decade or so - but flog it hard and get it all scratched up and crusty and you won't get more than the normal well used price...
Same almost everywhere. Yamaha seems to have given up on 2 stroke tech. The few 2 strokes that they make are carburated with mixed gas and oil. Ancient tech :)
I miss the old two strokes but the greenies are right. Evinrude makes the best outboards on the market currently and they are two stroke. I'd start selling those
sawmaster 609 Evinrude is far from being the best outboards and they recently went bankrupt being bought up pennies on the dollar by BRP. How much longer can Evinrude keep up with EPA, Mercury and Yamaha’s lighter 4 Strokes and now their 4 strokes getting faster lighter than Evinrude’s complex 2 Stokes. Even BRPs PWC are 4 stoke.

Please in fiji we have 2 strokes...i have a 60 horse power 2 stoke yamaha....do you still have the parts....please i need them....love to hear from you....
They’re not going to band anything.I’ll stick with my Evinrude. 75% less emissions. 20% more torque and last but not least15% higher top speed.Facts are facts. I’ll stick with my Evinrude.
Sadly BRP has currently canceled the entire Evinrude lineup... make sure you let BRP know via thier corporate emails that you won't be buying any BRP products for this betrayal.
@@zzeedstun7151 You know what is trash... ever Merc that ever rolled off the assembly line, but you know this is an argument as old as power boating itself.
wish the 2015 F60 Yamaha 4 stroke EFI outboard did not break down this Christmas trip i got to wait to get some to look at it on the 16th as it's in a marina they back in the shop, what a let down for the Yamaha only done 114hrs to, so long live my 1982 115hp 2 stroke Evinrude motor she always been good to me.
This sucks for me because I can’t put anything bigger than 6hp 4 stroke on my 12 footer without riding vertical in the water... I love 2 stroke because it’s so much lighter, more power and the biggest selling feature is how easy a 2 stroke is to repair.
Dealers love this. Four strokes are most costly and complex to work on. That means you have to take them to the dealer to get repaired. I have two stroke dirt bikes. I love them.
Many small boats can't take the weight of a small 4T and only work well with 2t e.g. my 3,8m Rubber duckky goes great with a 2T 30HP but with a 4T would be terrible. But also my RIB could take twin 60 2T but not 2x4T - They should limit the size of 2T to 90HP and 4T bigger (the weight diff is not so bad at larger sizes).
So say if I bought a 1996 20hp Yamaha Parts will still be made for it for many years to come? So if I keep buying parts for it I can then keep it on the water for many more years
So you’re telling me that if I buy a brand new Yamaha 250 hp 2-stroke for my boat, have it shipped here to the U.S., I could get in serious trouble? Wow. Such a shame. Yamaha’s 2-stroke outboards are damn near bulletproof. They still sell brand new ones to countries without emission regulations.
anyone know where we can buy old stock or black market new 2 strokes shipped from south america or something? i require two new yamaha 25hp TWO STROKE And a 30hp alzo😊
Etec stopped world wide production in April 2020 as a result of the corona virus There are only second hand 2 strokes available in Australia All thanks to ignorant green F wits with personal agendas
2 stroke vs 4 stroke. 2 stroke, costs far less, 1/3 more power and 1/3 less weight than the equivalent hp four stroke. which means, in the real world,adding the extra weight on menas i have to go from a 40hp 2 stroke to a 60 hp four stroke to get the same power for weight ratio. Sure four stroke are more economical, because they use 4 strokes per cycle to the two stroke 2, meaning only has half the power per cycle. 4 strokes are quieter and less oil burnt,also save having to buy 2 stroke oil, but also way more parts and a lot more maintenance is needed. There is a solid reason why trailbikes are going back enmass to 2 stroke tech,its far more powerful for same size engine. Difference in cost between a 90hp mercury 2 stroke @ $11k nzd for a 115hp four stoke @ $20k nzd that $9000 difference buys a heck of a lot of fuel.
Banned to sell in Australia, canada and the USA...but thevrestvofvthe world can do as it pleases. Banning a good product is the language of the intolerant and the stupid.😐
Get em now. They went up & up in the states. Definitely not good for smaller boats. My 2001 Yamaha 15 went for $2000 this spring. Good public service announcement!
Yamaha's are getting more popular in California. My son just replace a troublesome new Merc with a new four stroke 70 Yamaha. Quieter, faster, quicker holeshot, MUCH better fuel economy AND it's not in the shop all the time. He liked it so much he dumped the Merc kicker too. Heaven on water!
Karl Jensen anything is better than a Merc. It’s just a name, they’re terrible engines. That being said, I was planning a trip to Lake Mead next week. Been planning for a month. Got my old bass boat with a Johnson VRO 90 on the back. I just found out that Mead has banned 2 strokes since 2012. Can’t take my boat to the lake now. Kinda shitty deal, I only paid 2 grand for the boat and can’t spend 4 grand on a 4 stroke engine. Sucks to be me.
Just bought a second hand tinny with a 2016 Yamaha 20hp 2-stroke... Couldnt have paid for it quicker as I wanted that 2 stroke over any 4 stroke available... If people drive DPF deleted cars without worry, a little 2 stroke won't do much.
@@Slazmoservicing4209 Never had an E-Tec, let alone an outboard or anything that floats on water. I actually wasn't aware that Evinrude was discontinued. It's a real shame, because I was really interested in DI 2-stroke technology, because I basically thought it was some magical way to make 2 strokes more environmentally friendly. The reality is 1: outboard regulations are far more lenient than on-road regulations, and 2: when you make a 2-stroke DI, you add on a bunch of computerized junk that will eventually break and take the motor itself with it. It just didn't seem like that many people wanted 2 stroke outboards, and now we see the result of that.
Instead of banning 2 strokes... you should make performance criteria. Guess what the last time that was done magically Evinrude started making 2 strokes that could meet emissions AMAZING! The fact is that one of the most efficient and clean engine designs for upcoming vehicles is a 2 stroke from acates power, and it doesn't burn oil and and barely has any emissions due to the extreme expansion ratio allowed by the opposed piston design.
Evinrude's new E-TEC 2 stroke line up is something Yamaha need to take seriously. Evinrudes E-Tecs are cleaner, more fuel efficent than any 4 stroke in the market, and they produce a superior performance. So, yes, Yamaha must bring soon something in this game, a new line up fuel direct injection two stroke motors. I'm Yamaha man myself, but i'm worried that they don't keep up with competetors concentrating only to 4 strokes.
@@BrisbaneYamaha Really, well where are all these new Evinrudes coming from? We have a quite many Evinrude dealers here in Finland wich are selling new e-tecs.
Why? Why not Evinrude 2 strokes? They create less pollution than any other outboard... They're so good, they pass both US' CARB and EU emission standards...
There are benefits to 2 cycle motors less moving parts less weight more top end speed but cost of oil on top of fuel would be a disadvantage....2 cycle doesn't pollute any more than a 4 stroke they just run differently
I absolutely agree The ban was to total scam run by power equipment three big importers to stop Chinese products coming into Australia These three companies paid a wanker expert to write and promote lies Then the useless BIA moronic over paid wankers did nothing intact gave support for ban Unlike motorcycle industry who go exemption also chainsaws got exempted If you were concerned about pollution you ban cruise ships befor two stokes I’ve got 5 in my shed love them
Not exactly banned you can probably get into contact with someone in Japan if you really want one brand new importation won’t really care one or two will not hurt the system
If you like your fish ide say be all for banning the two stroke with the mixture compared to four strokes however trail bikes made the switch also from two to four tho a different ball game the four stroke seems to have more grunt and more quiet
So Australia is gonna ban 2 stroke outboards ?? Well go buy a 4 stroke brand new with a warranty and run the hell out of it , try to kill it and see how that works
Don’t In USA there a customer satisfaction award called JD Powers for best product of the year Yamaha has won 6 times no other outboard has ever won Most reliable outboard in the world What am I saying The rot? Has something to do with what your doing not the yamaha
The man is a salesman. He knows squat. There are no old classic 2 strokes being built anymore, The new 2 strokes are cleaner than the new 4 strokes and there is no ban on them. Get it right.
Two stroke are crap for general purpose boating. Had loads of them over the years, new and old and they've all been a pain the backside. Constantly breaking down and needing servicing, hard to start and dirty too. In contrast all the four strokes I've had have been a dream. Never broken down ever, always start first time, better fuel efficiency and being quieter and cleaner is just an added bonus. The only thing I'd personally use a two stroke outboard for is as an anchor. And even then I'm sure it'd fail. Adios two strokes, can't say it's been good knowing you. PS: As far as I'm aware most large shipping now run on electric engines powered by generators so comparing a cruise ships engine pollution to a small outboard doesn't even make sense.
Why are they banning stuff. This is everyone’s country not the political offices country to tell us what we can have and not have. All of my dirtbikes atvs, lawn equipment is all 2 cycle literally my lawnmower is a 2 cycle lawn boy. You can ban 2 strokes all you want I’ll still be using them until the day that I die. If parts are available then I’ll just rebuild the machine
I have a Yamaha 200 hp 2 stroke. If you run one in a barrel of water....Watch how dirty that water gets! They do put out some oil.
Make a 2 stroke like this:www.4btswaps.com/attachments/2cyclesbc-jpg.6839/

Constantly breaking down and needing servicing, hard to start and dirty too. In contrast all the four strokes I've had have been a dream. Never broken down ever, always start first time, better fuel efficiency and being quieter and cleaner is just an added bonus. The only thing I'd personally use a two stroke outboard for is as an anchor. And even then I'm sure it'd fail. Adios two strokes, can't say it's been good knowing you. PS: As far as I'm aware most large shipping now run on electric engines powered by generators so comparing a cruise ships engine pollution to a small outboard doesn't even make sense.
Chris I have always had 2 strokes dirt bikes they always seem to be reliable
Why are they banning stuff. This is everyone’s country not the political offices country to tell us what we can have and not have. All of my dirtbikes atvs, lawn equipment is all 2 cycle literally my lawnmower is a 2 cycle lawn boy. You can ban 2 strokes all you want I’ll still be using them until the day that I die. If parts are available then I’ll just rebuild the machine
I miss 2 strokes too
Do gooders and uninformed lefties
We sell a tenth of the small tinnies we use too
Killed a market for what?
Lies lies lies
This is an advertisement and should have been deleted after the 2018 date. Thumb down for that reason.
I’m a boat dealer?
Everything I do is advertisement!
Japanese make the best stuff. Last forever. Same with the Germans.
Germans couldn’t build a yamaha
That's for selling scams
I'm so glad I don't live in such a screwed up place like Australia...
It got worse.
Bring back small two strokes the four strokes are shit
