Obviously it had nothing to do with high RPMs. I mean there is no wear involved with metal rings sliding along another metal surface. Doubling the number of passes will literally not add any additional wear.
The FA20 has none of the precautions Honda takes so we are in better hands. Go ahead, sling your hearts out. [emoji3]
