Important Features for Purchase
1. 3 to 3 Induction System
Each cylinder has its own carburetor, ensuring immediate throttle response, smooth operation, and quiet running. This system is much more responsive than competitive throttle body with long intake runners.
2. Automatic Enrichment Start
The automatic enrichment system functions like an automatic choke. It automatically adjusts the air-fuel ratio for quick and easy starting under the same conditions.
3. Engine Alert System
The advanced warning system uses visual, audible, and RPM reduction circuits to alert the operator to overheating, low oil pressure, and over-revving.
4. Forced Ventilation
The top air intake system on the top of the cover allows cooler air to enter and warmer air to escape, reducing only the operating temperature and thus improving performance.
5. Honda Corrosion Protection
The multi-layer corrosion protection system includes a durable painting process, sacrificial anodes, and waterproof connectors.
