Not 100% sure, but I suspect so. Whatever was TiNi coated on the GX would most likely be clear coated on the GXII. Massive or Trey may be able to give you a definite answer though.

I'm going to assume yes, but I will have to verify. I've had some reports of non-smooth throttle slides on the GX, but they were on the older models. Machining on the throttle slide movement was something that I asked them to pay special attention to- I'm just obsessive about mechanical stuff like that.

Thanks for the real info on the new engines.
I was hoping for a totally new designed carb.
But I never thought that they would go back-
wards with the crank refinements too. :confused:

its not backwards:weird:....its a WHOLE new crank...i bet the material is different and thats why it needs NO coating....:D

Until I know for sure, I wont be bettin on it.
Don't get me wrong, I like the GO engines
that I own. GO had the time to come out
with a newly designed engine that would
be a cut above the rest of the other engines
in it's price market, but now I just don't
see where they have.
Like I said on the other GO thread, only
time will tell.

Does that mean the finned button can be used with the MG head ?
or
the new finned button and new head fits the MG ?
or
the new head fits the old button ?
