75 HP Honda

[High Velocity]

I've got a new 75 Honda and just wondering what RPM others are running at WOT? Mine is on a 1700 Explorer and tops out at 5000 max tilted up a tad but sounds like it's winding out pretty good and at right around 34MPH. They did just recalibrate the Tach. Also what size prop do you have??

I have a 75 honda 4-stroke on a 16.5 Alumacraft Magnum...and if i remember correclty, it goes about 5200 rpm and right around 33-35 mph at WOT. I am going out fishing tonight and I will double check that info. I dont recall the prop size, but I think its a 17 pitch...again, I will double check tonight and let ya know.

i've got a 75 hp honda on a prov v 1775. run a 19 pitch prop. i dont have a tach, but it runs around 32-35 mph using the gps or betwen 37-40 mph using the sonar speedo (which i like to go by since 40mph sounds better right!! )

i really need to geta tach hooked up, one of those things i mean to get done each winter, and here another season is and still hasnt been done!
