Suzuki Exante..... A talking outboard!

[Yamaha 225]

Has anyone any experience with the Suzuki 200 Exante motor of the 80-s?? It war really cool with gold paint and a maroone decal.

The engine had a voice module which spoke to you about high engine temp, low oil, low voltage etc. How did that work in a hi-perf boat? I assume it would be difficult to hear all that in high speeds?

But who wants an outboard yelling "SLOW DOWN, SLOW DOWN" all the time??? :p :p ;)

Since it was Japenese it was probably more like "SHROW DOWN, SHROW DOWN"

were ahead of their time... kinda cool... but werent much other than the modual and related systems that seperated them from a standard 200.. and the standard motors were alot cheeper. so not many were around.. they didnt have any more go so they were a 1 or 2 year only motor..

They also had dual plug heads and some differences in the cdi/timing I believe....
