• High capacity cooling system with electric cooling fan.
  • maintains consistent engine temperatures for optimum performance & longevity
  • rad is positioned high in the frame for protection
  • engine overheat warning buzzer will sound as the engine is reaching maximum operating temperature to avoid overheating issues
• Wet sump lubrication system with liquid cooled oil cooler.
  • oil cooler helps consistent oil & engine temperatures for optimum performance
  • spin-on type oil filter
• Maintenance-free transistor controlled ignition (TCI).
  • produces a strong spark for fast starts
  • precise ignition timing / mapping for optimum engine performance at all rpms
• Marine grade connectors on key electrical components.
• Stainless steel exhaust header pipe & painted steel muffler with cleanable spark arrestor.
  • spark arrestor prevents stray sparks from exiting the exhaust
  • stainless steel design helps prevent rusting, steel muffler is painted
• Air Injection System (AIS) injects fresh air into exhaust port to fully burn any unburnt fuel, reducing exhaust emissions.
