    Who’s going to be first

    To hang Mercury’s 250 or 300 V8 on a Bullet?

    I’m confident the trajectory on hole shot will be awesome.

    I would care to wager Paul Nichols would know. Would love to know comparisons between the 250's.

    3 year warranty on the racing engines is nice. What is the warranty on the Pro XS?

    That would be true, but it's still ugly, eye catching can't miss it, just like a rude, there goes one of those, what am I saying, I'd take one, someone will make an alien cowling for one!!

    How much heavier will the outboard be compared to the optimax? Looks like the new 300 weighs either 512 or 546 lbs...then add in the weight of oil. Can't believe the opti is gone.

    Once you start playing with the 4 strokes its hard to go back with a 2 stroke. Quieter, smoother, more low end power. My 300xs with alien cowl and no air box is loud AF.

    I would never buy the first year of anything, Always wait for the 2nd or 3rd year.
