Hey all,
As I was explaining my spring maintenance plan to my wife, she said "You sure do spen a lot of time working on the boat each spring to get it ready for the season, why don't we get something newer that is not as much work". I'm not going to argue with her, so I'm putting the '99 Sportster 1800 up for sale. We've been looking at the later model Challengers and Utopias ('07 and up). On the twin engine models (I like the Challenger 230), there is only one throttle lever for the twin engines.
Question: How does that work? I liked having the dual levers for the twin engines on my Sportster 1800 so that I could control both engines independantly to match the RMPs. On one occasion, I limped home on one engine. How does the single throttle lever work with twin engines? Does the computer control the RPMs to make sure both engines match?
Thanks!
