SHIFT DAMPENER SYSTEM (SDS™)

Yamaha's patent-pending Shift Dampener System (SDS™) greatly reduces the noise commonly associated with shifting gears. Using a new design and components specific to Yamaha "K" size propellers, much of the force of shifting is absorbed. Standard on Yamaha's new aluminum Talon™ series of propellers, it means smooth and quiet operation when both shifting and while in gear. Talon propellers require no special hardware for proper operation.

Controlled by Multi-Function Tiller Handle or by the Command Link® tachometer, the operator can adjust the engine's trolling speed from 600 to 1,000 rpm in 50-rpm increments, which helps to provide precise and consistent trolling speeds in an array of conditions.
