Osprey sparrowhawk max engine weight

Does anyone know what the max weight I can stick on the back of a sparrowhawk? I can find documentation saying max 90hp but no weights but also see loads for sale with 100hp or 115hp so what is the max I can fit?

Sold my suzuki 90hp v4 and looking for a newer engine. Would like either an optimax or 4 stroke (opinions welcome) but see the opti seem to be about 190kg. That's nearly 40 more than the old v4

Any help would be Ace

Cheers

Jim

And are the older 4 strokes like this any good?
