There have been conrod issues, but I replaced mine with a Palmaris conrod and now Mega has new and improved conrods:

Haven't heard of failing conrods lately...

Tuning isn't that hard as long as you keep in mind that the carb has to get to operating temps first before you do the "final tune" : start a little rich, run it a couple of laps, finetune and you are set forthe rest of the day!
I have seen a new Mega Picco conrod failing, but not a Palmaris one.
