Jack in Norfolk Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 does anyone have any info on the outboard boat motor that Subaru made? I remember seeing it on here a while back but found nothing with the search. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 From what I remember, a couple were imported but the intrest just wasn't there, so they were never sold. The few that came over were samples (IIRC), and there might be some around that people have brought in from Asia... I know a friend that brought over a boat and motor from thailand because he liked it. Robin engines for small power equipment are common here now (sold at Harbor Frieght on equipment, and stand alone). Those are made by Fuji, and that division has capitalized on the popularity of the Subaru name, and started to advertise as "Robin by Subaru". I have no experience with them, but having worked on tons of other small engines (hobby when I was a kid), most are so underpowered and slow they almost never wear out. Robin advertises OHV, and cast iron sleeves, so they probably will never die. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
