Thanks for the video. Because of the price I've had some interest in these motors and it looks like they could be a decent buy.

Number 1 - Use 25 to one during breakin. Number 2 make sure cooling good.. non ethanol best. You can buy 3 of these for price of 15 hp name brand. Mercury most advanced outboards are all made in China. They don,t need much choking and none when warm.. Can be lifted by 82 yr old. Light. like mine too.

Hi. I bought same outboard but 15hp 2 years ago. Its been great. Its basically a copy of the Yamaha 2strokes made with pretty good quality parts. 1 thing 2check is the thermostat. They don't always fit them. Mine didn't have 1 so I fitted 1. Just means the engine won't ever be running at optimum temp 55⁰c

Just picked up the 12 hp for $889 on amazon shipping and yax included. These are Tohatsu M 9.8B clones so most parts should be interchangeable from what I understand. I did hear another owner say the rubber parts dont hold up well over time they start leaving residue when touched

i imagine the motor should be fine it is a Yamaha Clone and i’ve had severalYamaha motors over the years bothOutboards and Motorcycles /ATV i’ve always had good luck with them of course Japan is usually better thanChina in quality and Materials i’ve noticed these Hang Kai’s are not as quiet as a Yamaha or the Grey Ghosts as we call them on Law Enforcement boats ! one of my best freinds and i were riding on a guys boat that took a group of us to a Waterfront restaraunt and that boat Owner was drinking pretty hard so he was loud and wobbly on his feet the LocalMarine Police watched this with his Binoculars sort of hidden behind some docked boats and didn’t get more than a quater mile when the Ridgid came up behind us to blip his Siren and turn on his lights my best freind was talking with his Lady and almost crapped his pants because he didn’t see the boat coming up behind us it turned out the guy had a bulb out and got a warning which he was more than lucky to get because he stunk like a Barrel of Bourbon IMO and was running too fast in a NoWake Zone plus under severe Influence of Alchohol we were in a quiet Tributary of the Chesapeake Bay and this guy was another member at our Marina who heard where a group,of us were Anchoring for the Weekend
