The majority of failures happen before 1000 miles. The spreadsheet in the registry thread has a few documented failures between 4000 and 5000 miles after the recall though. |

Is it just that a majority of the failures will occur before 1000 miles... or is it also that many people don’t put a ton of miles on their twin and so enough time hasn’t passed since the recall work for many drivers to have accumulated enough miles to see if engines are failing later? |

Good point, 5000miles is a year or more for a lot of twins! |

Update time!
I just hit 1000 miles and change. No problems or issues yet. I been driving it normal since then. Knock on wood but wouldn't it suck balls if it crapped out on me in the next 100 miles?

I picked my car up this Friday gone (28th June 2019). I asked the garage whether it needed a 'running-in' period. The answer was a firm no!
I like the garage as they have had no issues with the non-OEM parts and tune that I have on my car. They're happy seeing my car once a year for a service and MoT. And, were okay installing the non-OEM engine/transmission mounts at zero cost. God bless them! |
