So what you are saying is that all engines with open vacuum port, in theory should all be done in about 2 gallons of fuel? Based on your theory there is no way they can last more than that under dusty conditions.I think the bearing will die early, like I said before,I dont think that much dirt can go thru the engine to make it fail early.Are you saying that all that dirt goes in through the open vacuum port or the front of the crank.If that was the case the oil and dirt would've plugged that hole very fast.If it was the front of the crank,you would see scratched marks on the front part of the crank like you see in a crank window when a filter fails.

I would like to know the same thing or where I can possibly find one now in japan. Futaba and a couple other sites listed on here were sold out.

Would love to find the combo with 2090

What's the difference between the JPN and US B2101?


FYI: I found the combo from BEAT1 RACING.

There's nothing saying they're "US Production Versions", he just said that they are the production ones, since the one he was running at worlds was a prototype.

I have ordered from Japan in the past and the engine was exactly the same as the US engine.
FYI they should be here within the next 1-2 weeks

I spoke with OS USA today and they told me end of this month. Whether or not that will hold true is anyone's guess. If any of our regulars want to pre-order please let me know so I can increase quantities. They are the same price as the spec 2
