really?
that is not true man , novarossi is all about bringing the best they possibly can , the only real challenge they have right now is competing price wise with all the low cost and some lower quality engines .
that 17011 is the baddest front bearing on the planet , if you think you need to plug "the vacuum port" do it but i guarantee it is not necessary , its a total non issue . btw , many other manufacturers have the exact same "vacuum port" , why is it only exclusively being talked about for novarossi engines?
