It is interesting to see they have no large headbutton with fins anymore. It seems like that was the cause of fast worn P/S sets, the better cooling on the sleeve keeps the sleeve a tiny bit colle so smaller.
The reasson Piccos wear "fast" is that people runs them to lean. They expect them to run the same as other engines, but they don`t.
I have a REDS DLC coated crank, i had it DLCèd myself. There is no perfrmance or runtime difference between an standard an DLC coated cranck.
Picco is only doing this for "looks" and longewity
