9901 is excellent in buggy on the bonito, the 2096 also, but 9901 is my choice

hey guys was just wondering is there much of a difference between the bonito 217xlb and the keepoff 21-7?

from what i gathered the keep off replaced the bonito?

is it really worth the extra $100 for the keep off 7 port?

I'm going off an assumption here, but I bet the higher price for the Keep Off is because more R&D went into the Keep Off, and yes, because it's a more recent engine.

Hey Guys,

I have kind of a stupid question. I read in the manual on my new BTTA, that if you change the direction of the fuel inlet, that you need to change the washers for the fuel nipple with new ones. Is this really necessary? Or do I need to do it... The motor came with extra washers included.

I run a keep off 7. Its a good motor but would not pay an extra 100.00 over a bonito for sure. That extra money would disappear into thin air. A tad bit smoother and maybe a hint more mileage aint worth 100.00 aint even worth 50.00

Shouldn't be necessary. I've done it several times and haven't had to swap out the washers for any reason. Just make sure it doesn't leak and you'll be good to go.

How come the Elite engines are so well priced? I keep hearing and seeing great things about them, is it really because they are made with old stock?

The REX line, is pretty good. The Legend is like the Keep OFF like them.
