Thank you thank you, I even believe you would have to be one bad dude to kill a motor doing a 12 o' clocker.

I do plenty of 80MPH stand ups and maybe 1 O'clock wheelies (ask drewpy) and again no loss of oil or problems on any of my bikes.

I would think that a very high wheelie for an extremely long amount of time at VERY high RPM's MIGHT cause something but not a soul on this board is in that zone that I know of. Not that it is that hard but just not very common.

These bikes are very Bullet proof and I am not concerned with how you broke it in because you have nothing on what I'm about to do to it when I buy it.

You have to be impressed if nothing more at how much these motors take. Its evident in how much you can stress them with a Turbo or high revs under full load for extended periods. I have taxed mine at WOT for at least a full 10 miles at a streach many times and nearly for 1.5 hours on the way back from the gap. This is a regular thing for my bikes and its not even close to what it can take.

If you have ever had your bike on a DYNO and stood there I bet you were shitting at the thought of what it is doing over there. Try 30 40 runs just to tune your turbo setup under full or near full boost! Now that and then riding it like you stole it is maybe "hard" on it but its a machine with no feelings and could care less that you use 90% of what it is made to do.

Just wait 10 years and see what we have.
