That sounds like a good mean for your metric or calculus. When you get here, just sit down at an outdoor venue of a restaurant or two and observe the different cart types driving by. The Yamaha’s are certainly the most popular, but some of those have gone through some serious abuse.
Their governors are cranked back for the 25 mph speed, but you can almost hear the valves slamming their valve covers into a slow impending engine death. The engines are louder and some even do blow smoke from ring problems.
The beauty of newer models is they can’t quite be as abused because they only do 21-22 mph with their governor’s maxed out and they are quieter. The newer model may be the better condition when you buy.
