Way of Life!
Suzuki Offers the World’s First Selective Rotation Outboard Motor Integrated both Regular and Counter-Rotation Operation into a Single Unit Suzuki Engineers are always looking forward, to see into tomorrow, to create products that will benefit today’s customer. Form and function are always key ingredients to a successful design. Every year, Suzuki has introduced new models with new features to meet the challenges that our customers face. And this year is no different.
Suzuki Selective Rotation
In multi-outboard installations on large boats, a counter-rotation outboard is usually paired with a regular rotation model to help keep the boat traveling on an even keel and in a straight line. The DF300AP is built with special gearing in the lower unit, which allows the prop to rotate in either direction. Suzuki Selective Rotation eliminates the need to purchase a dedicated counter-rotation outboard by using a special switchable circuit inside the engine compartment, that turns a regular rotation outboard into a counter-rotation model with a counterrotation propeller.* This industry first is made possible through a special, unified design of gears, shaft, and bearings in the lower unit that are designed to operate reliably and efficiently in either regular or counter-rotation directions. * Consult with your dealer before changing Regular Rotation to Counter Rotation (or vice versa).
New Lower Unit
The biggest changes on the DF300AP are found in the outboard’s lower unit, which was redesigned for the Suzuki Selective Rotation system—the world’s first integration of regular and counter-rotation models into a single unit. The case itself is actually larger than the previous model to provide increased gear durability, however it is designed with a smoother, more hydrodynamic shape that allows it to move through the water with less drag and greater efficiency. The lower unit now incorporates dual water intakes which increase water flow while improving cooling efficiency. Positioning the forward inlet at the gear case nose delivers a greater water supply especially at high speeds. The second inlet is also positioned lower allowing the DF300A to operate in shallow water conditions. Like the DF300, the new DF300AP utilizes an aggressive final drive ratio of 2.08:1 allowing it to turn 16-inch diameter propeller available in various pitch size for optimum performance on a wide variety of boats.
O Sensor Feedback Control System
2 The DF300AP is equipped with an O2 Sensor Feedback Control system, which enables emissions to be cleaner and more stable. The system controls the air to fuel ratio across the engine’s operating range providing an optimum amount of fuel to the engine regardless of rpm.
Suzuki’s Lean Burn Control System
Suzuki’s innovative Lean Burn Control System was first introduced on the DF90A/70A and the DF60A/50A/40A. It predicts fuel needs according to operating conditions allowing the engine to run on a more efficient fuel mixture through the use of a lean air-fuel ratio. It delivers its benefits over a wide operating range, providing significant improvements in fuel economy from low-speed operation into the cruising range. Combining this system with the Suzuki Precision Control, electronic throttle and shift system, allows the operator precise control to increase or decrease the engine RPM for improved fuel economy over a wider range. This combination also delivers smooth power transitions throughout the entire RPM range. In-house testing shows that while cruising, the DF300AP is 14% more economical than the original non-Lean Burn DF300 without sacrificing any power of the original DF300. Data used in the graphs were obtained through in-house testing under uniformed conditions. Results will vary depending upon operating conditions (boat design, size, weight, weather, etc.)
Suzuki Trolling Mode System
Suzuki’s Trolling Mode system provides fine control over engine speed at low RPM to keep your boat moving at a constant speed while trolling. When the system is engaged, revs are controlled with an independent control switch that adjusts engine revolutions in 50 rpm increments over a range spanning from idle to 1,200 rpm. Additional/optional parts are required to use this feature with DF300AP/DF90A/ DF70A/DF60A/DF50A/DF40A.
DF140/DF115
The Next Generation DF300AP
Since its introduction, Suzuki’s flagship DF300 has been a showcase for advanced technologies and designs. As the world’s first 300hp 4-stroke outboard, the DF300 set a new benchmark for power and performance from a compact and lightweight outboard, and was recognized for this with an NMMA Innovation Award. Utilizing Suzuki’s advanced Lean Burn Control System and Suzuki Precision Control the outboard delivers remarkable fuel economy over a wide operating range and environmentally responsible operation. The new DF300AP introduces Suzuki Selective Rotation—the world’s first selective rotation outboard that combines regular and counter-rotation operation into the same outboard. This is made possible through a special, unified design of gears, shaft, and bearings in the lower unit that are designed to operate reliably and efficiently in either regular or counterrotation directions. This redesigned low drag gear case also incorporates a new two-way water inlet providing the engine’s cooling system with increased water flow.
DF250SS
These V6 4-strokes bring jaw-dropping acceleration and performance to bass boats, bay boats and sport pontoons. Fishing, skiing, boarding or cruising – hit the throttle and hold on. You’re in for one heck of a ride!
DF250/DF225/DF200
Suzuki broke new 4-stroke horsepower barriers when it introduced its 3.6 liter V6 models, proving once and for all that 4-stroke technology is the wave of the future. Run for distant offshore fishing grounds, cruise to exotic new ports or just share time on the water with family. Suzuki’s Innovation Award winning technology, proven reliability, class-leading fuel economy and unbeatable performance inject extra fun into each boating day.
DF175/DF150
Do you want big performance for your bass boat, center console or pontoon? Only Suzuki’s Big Block DF175 and DF150 four-cylinder 4-strokes will do. With the most displacement of any in-line four cylinder 4-stroke, (174.9 cu. in.) Suzuki’s DF175 and DF150 have what it takes to push you to new levels of excitement.
When the weekend’s finally here and you’re ready to cut loose, you need an outboard that works as hard as you do. This pair of powerful Suzuki in-line fourcylinder 4-strokes are just the ticket. Part workhorse. Part racehorse. Ready to run hard, fast and long on a wide variety of popular fresh and saltwater boats.
DF90A/DF70A
You deserve more from every precious moment on the water. More power. More refinement. More miles from every gallon. Top to bottom, Suzuki has applied breakthrough technology to make these 4-stroke outboards smaller, lighter, faster and more efficient.
DF60A/DF50A/DF40A
Engineered to deliver fuel-efficient operation in a compact and light weight design, the DF60A/50A/40A utilizes many of the advancements that Suzuki has pioneered over the last decade. This three-cylinder engines with a four valve DOHC design is combined with Suzuki’s Lean Burn Control System to deliver high-tech performance with efficient operation and top level fuel economy. These new models will come equipped with the Suzuki Troll Mode System as a standard feature. The operator can increase or decrease the engine speed in 50 rpm increments with the simple touch of an optional rocker switch located near the helm. The Suzuki Troll Mode System can be utilized with an “in gear” (forward or reverse) engine operating range from idle – 1200 rpm. Make sure you checkout these award-winning outboards from Suzuki.
DF25 V-Twin/DF15/DF9.9 High Thrust/ DF9.9A
These outboards may be small in size, but they are big on advanced design ideas, innovative features and big engine performance. The DF25 V-Twin is powerful and compact. The DF15 has all of the power and torque you need. The DF9.9 High Thrust is an excellent choice for the boater looking for auxiliary power or a small kicker motor. The DF9.9A is the Next Generation Outboard – less weight, uses less fuel and incorporates an innovative Multi-Function Tiller Handle.
DF6/DF4/DF2.5
Small in stature but with big hearts, you can count on these portable 4-stroke outboards to get you where you want to go. Easy to start, easy to maneuver, and easy on gas, they’re right at home on the transom of a dinghy, inflatable or even a squarestern canoe.
