dont really know what you mean by that, but imo i dont like the crank design realy. its not fully counterweighted. not that big of a problem, but im picky. also, of course the displacement. it would be nice to have more. other than that, its a totally bada$$ motor.

Yeah, the lack of displacement is the only thing that's making me think twice about the CA....
