Agree, Yamaha is missing and should be there.  They power cat's most competitive product and know how to build modern two strokes.  They just don't know how to build a competitive sled chassis to save their ass.  They also have a track record of doing some really stupid shit in the SxS market. 

The company lacks direction and focus but has the foundation for a legitimate comeback.  The other's on the list really don't have a chance so that should be an option in the poll.

Does Yamaha really know how to build a modern 2 stroke?? Their 2 stroke boat motor suck and they dropped it years ago and they haven’t been using 2 strokes in years.

They sure do! OK- not modern......

The Yamaha HPDI outboard engines were great. But when you put fuel filters in the HPDI that are so fine that they get plugged easily, so then you lean the engine out and burn it down....you get the idea.....

I worked at a boat dealer. They hated those. They were shit piles. The 4 strokes are another story. Ran like tops.
