The engine has no oil pressure at idle after warming from a short ride. If left idling for a few minutes it really rattles as same as lifter noise. Kevin at Cowtown, has replaced oil pumps, etc. and still the same. I do not ride the bike hard, shift at the suggested rpms, etc. BRP tecs have been called and they are stumped also. They are willing to replace the engine as they want to see what has happened.

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

I guess you had mentioned this in some other threads other than Decisions, Decisions. Since its in the hands of Cowtown, you apparantly have a good dealer working on it. It will be interesting to hear what they find though.

It's a dang shame that this has happened; Rotax normally builds some pretty stout engines... :shocked:
You've got the best in the business on it, so the Best of Luck to you! :thumbup:

Bad news at the front end but hey! Getting a brand new engine can't be all bad! No one makes a perfect product. Rotax is one of the most reliable engines on the market but even they have failures. The thing that is important is that they are standing behind it, as they should.
Sorry for the problem but very happy for you and your new to be engine! Way to go BRP! :yes:
