That’s what I would have thought too. But Ski, who is a pretty smart bloke, gave us pricing data comparing the two as well as carb motors, and based off of his data they were all around the same price.
I can tell you that when I was looking at ETEC 90 and 135/115HO (the 115HO was the 135 with different badging, near as I can tell), they were… eye wateringly expensive. It was almost a joke, they were so expensive. If BRP held onto their pricing strategy to the end, no wonder they went under. But they were fairly light in certain power categories. I’ll give them that.
