Use saltpetre in a 12 bore, and most f####n dogs run like they been shot in the a##e,
Sounds like you got some real problems there,eh.
Never heard about many problems with the Honda though.
Hope you get through a week with warm beer.

Have I missed something ? Whats wrong with it ? Only snag I've had with mine was a fuel vapour lock in very hot weather - I just took the back hatch off to improve cooling for those conditions - otherwise very easy to start and use - they can run erractically, while on ECO throttle on "certain devices" - smart chargers etc, can have fluctuating / pulsing current draw - switching back to normal throttlle will cure that...... ?

My yamaha ran like a dog until i read here that i needed to unscrew the knob that lets air into the tank, ran like a dog cause it couldn't breath. I didn't get an instruction book with mine, now runs the same as the Eu10i i had a long time back and probably should not have sold but did. Like the blue better.

Yep - RED bring good luck in Asian countries only - Blue generator much better for Oztraya.
