Thanks for posting that SR
Theres so much info in that vid! It's refreshing to hear actual testing and logical diagnosis instead of the conjecture and guesses that are being touted as fact here state-side. NCCR has so much more experience with the 1125 and 1190 platforms, even their opinions carry a lot of weight
IMO, front cylinder failure is still such a rare occurrence I'm still not sold on spending a ton of cash to alleviate my worries, when $2 buys a complete engine and $6K-10k buys a whole new EBR delivered to my door and thats still IF something happens.
I'll continue to maintain mine as well as I can, and thrash her mercilessly on the track as often as my wallet allows IF I get a front cylinder failure I believe its worth the postage to send it to NCCR for them to continue their research. (Knocks on wood)
The Rotax story is pretty telling though....
