I went with the Yamaha 3000iseb. at 150 pounds I can lift it and put it in the bed of my truck..the wife and kid can't..they are just to short. BUT I was looking at the Hondas and Yamahas 2000...went with the 3000 cause I picked it up off CL for 1150 and used 3 times. Still had original break in oil. and first tank of fuel..
BUT Neighbor picked up two honda 2000s and the cable. Put both of ours together for a noise comparison. one honda and mine on low idle..mine was a little louder..but not much..then the wife started the AC and mine kicked up to high idle..neighbor had to start the other honda then they could start the AC..with two Hondas and my yamaha, mine was quieter. My wife shut off the AC mine idled back down..they shut off the AC, then had to get out and turn off the other honda.
there is a little more work with the Hondas (even more with the external tank) but they both do the same job...and one honda is like 45 pounds...weight is a factor with them. The Honda does not have electric start and no fuel gauge..the Yamaha 3000 does...
have no experience with the yamaha 2000.
hope this helps.
